Picked up a brand new P229 DAK with night sights in .40 yesterday for $800. How'd I do? I love how smooth and light the DAK is.

Hmm, looks like a couple I've seen listed as DHS contract over-runs.
I think you did very well |

Did it come in a smaller black box with (2) mags, a grip removal tool and night sights? If so, I'd wager it's an overrun. I've only seen that slide on overrun pistols although my experience only involves two pistols personally and yours but I've searched online for other examples and haven't been able to find any others. |

Did DHS start ordering them with E2 grips recently? Granted my sample size is small but I haven't seen any in the CG yet.

Yup. Came in small black box with 2 mags and night sights, however, minus the grip removal tool. The DAK trigger really interested me, and I'm glad I gave it a fair shot. It's extremely smooth, and I understand the first reset is only to keep people from short stroking the trigger. From what I understand, SIG teaches to shoot by using the full reset, to get the 6.5 pound pull. |

That is our duty pistol for my department. The trigger is okay, and it should smooth out over time. Overall I like it, but I recommend putting in the range time to get a feel for the trigger and the two reset points.

The two I'm familiar with were ordered from a wholesaler a year or better ago on close-out but NIB and were listed as overruns. Maybe DHS just wanted to be sure they had plenty of extras to stockpile and haven't gotten to spreading them around. This is pa's which is one of the two mentioned: 
I carry a 9mm 226R DAK on-duty and am trying to convince myself to pay $60 for the E2 conversion at Top Gun. |
