    Default Which would you rather carry?

    Which would you rather carry?
    1. FNX 45 Tactical which holds 16 rounds.
    2. Sig P226 Legion which holds 19 rounds of 9mm.


    The FNX feels better balanced in hand. Both are relatively comparable in size and weight. Following pictures are loaded weights.

    Legion, I have tried one at the local indoor range. Sweet trigger, almost as good a well made 1911.

    I can't say for sure because I've never handled either one. Sig grips are usually a bit large for my hand. I would probably have to choose the FNX because of the caliber. Give me an HK......................

    That particular P226 isn't an SAO. SA trigger pull is probably 1911-ish but only after the take up. Still, I'd carry it before the FNX. Either way though it would be hard to go wrong. Nice guns both.

    Neither. PM9 for pocket carry an MK40N or CM45 with an inside the waistband holster. I have fifteen handguns and can vary my carry, but three are too large, an HK USP 40, a full sized SA lightweight 1911, and a SIG P220.

    I'll take the SA Lightweight 1911. Works for me.

    The trigger on the 226 is fantastic it has a Gray Guns trigger that is dual adjustable with no slack and very decent pull weight. Good in double action or even better in single. I kind of prefer the Sig, but I really like the 45 size bullets. Neither of these will be every day carry [they are for going into the Minneapolis War Zones, pretty much all of Minneapolis now-a-days]. Every day carry gets rotated between my Sig P220Compact or Sig P224 in 357 Sig or my Sig P938.
