Finally had a chance to shoot my circa 2016 SAO Legion 226 today with the Strut from the Sig Armorer. It was transformational. The gun and trigger were 2x the gun the last time I shot it without the strut. My gun is otherwise stock. I knew I had the issue Burke was talking about (the drag on the strut), but I did not think it would be this big a difference. I love my DA/SA that Burke went over...but this is something else. The gun went from playing second fiddle to my DA/SA 226 to being a first string player. The break on first shot and follow up shots is very nice. Follow up shots are exceptional. The gun cycles fast...the sights settle back in exceptionally well and the break is very clean. This is what I was hoping for when I first bought my 226SAO. I'd spend twice the price to get this result. I keep wanting to grab a Staccato just because...but the wants died a lot while I was shooting this setup. I think a 226SAO with modern mags, one of these struts, and a modern optics setup is something to consider. I don't know why SIG doesn't buy this IP and make it standard for the 22x. If someone wants to try the strut, let me know.
