Picked up a 226 Short & Smart X5, this is one of the German Mastershop guns. It’s pretty much mint, and for the price I couldn’t pass it up. Hopefully I can get out to the range on Sunday

I’m not sure what you mean by “find” exactly. I have a different thread in GD, is that a problem for you?

It’s not really a dupe, that’s GD and this is the Sig forum.

Been on an Sig spree lately. Found this guy for $1200 with the box and papers, 9mm. Also picked up some friends, a mastershop p229 sport stock 357 and a full stainless regular p229 40.

That is one fine looking pistol you have there Sir. A comparable pistol exists in the Sig Sauer P226 X-Five Short, but available for the Canadian market only. Here is a reference:

Beautiful! I just bought a P226R from Aim in 40s&w. My first Sig and have been doing some research. My next one will be a 229 in 40s&w, preferably stainless like yours.

I think that I said the same thing in your GD thread as well, but I am going to say it again - I'll be in my bunk!  

To me, that is a really nice looking pistol!!
