KJW Sig Sauer p226 review

So it is here, I have test fired it and everything and it is just amazing!

The packaging was pretty cheap, a thin cardboard cover over a Styrofoam insert.
Regardless of the packaging the presentation of the gun itself and the other odds and ends it came with was satisfying.

Upon opening the box the following items were revealed:
- The Sig itself
- 100 KJW polished bb's
- pistol speedloader

Initial inspection of the gun.
Everything looked very good. The construction feels very solid. It is a full metal gun besides the grips. It has a very good heft to it and the weight feels well distributed throughout the gun as a whole.
There is a nice weaver mount rail as well for mount lasers etc.
The gun has quite a few levers and buttons to use. First there is the magazine release, then there is the slide catch/release (2 different levers), and then there is a functional decocking lever which I love.
Also this gun is licensed by SIG SAUER so there are some nice laser etched trademarks on their, looks very very sexy!

Upon fulling the slide back and letting it slide forward, I heard the most satisfying sound as it racked itself.
One tiny problem I noticed with the gun was the magazine catch, (or perhaps the magazine itself) you can't just put the magazine in and your are good to go. You have to slam the magazine in all the way (by slam, i mean SLAM) otherwise the magazine will fall out.

The magazine itself it metal as well and looks to be very high quality. Holds around 25 rounds.

Take down is a cinch, just use the slide release lever and pull it off. No need to pull the slide back in order to take it off, just pushing it forward will do the job. Taking off the slide will reveal the hop-up unit which is extremely easy to adjust as it is just a dial.

This pistol has a double action and single action trigger pull which is very nice in my opinon, but the lack of a safety bothers me. However just like that dude in BHD said "This is my safety *nudges finger*" So I guess all is well

Firing Test:
First I will say, firing this pistol was amazing, It felt so comfortable to shoot, and the kick was really really nice! Felt almost as if I was shooting a .22 (not quite though )
The accuracy was dead on. When I shot, I would see the bb fly dead on target at a high speed. Looked very very direct when being fired.

Overall I say this gun is just amazing! I paid a good amount for it, but it was totally worth it, KJW did a darn good job in making this replica! I would have to say it is one of the finest pistols I have ever shot. 10/10

Here are some pictures for you readers with ADD

That's a weird package...normally KJW sends in a plane off-white box.

you are right I do have ADD *JOKING*
the pics are nice(so are the ADD pro con list

Think you can strip it and show the internals?
I've actually been eying this piece for a while now...

Good luck with your magazine. I hear they tend to leak. Nice gun.

Durkee
Yeah I was surprised too, my Glock came in a plain white box that said the KJW model number in black marker

Sure thing Durkee
Oh i forgot to mention one thing, This gun came well oiled and greased Very satisfying to see.

here are those pics you requested durkee

lower receiver:

Yeah KJW oils up their guns.

WGC Shop fills the mags before shipping, kinda odd

Yeah i found that very nice. Good to know they take care of their replicas before then send them off

The fill up the mags? In what way? with bb's and gas? >_<

Well when I got my stuff from WGC-Shop, the two extra magazines I got were filled with gas literally out of the box...

Lol that is very strange in my opinion.....

I'm curious where i can get some more magazines for this pistol????? I can't find them anywhere..... TOT

I can only find mags for 229's. :\

its look like extra mags will be a problem...

its on pre-order, but isn\'t this it?

That is it! I'll be sure to pick some up~! Thanks wertuk!

I changed the look of my Sig, I sanded it a little bit to make it look more "battle torn"

No problem, can we see some pics of the battletornness?

Sure thing, its a little hard to see, but basically the slide was a really shiny black. so i went over with some sand paper to dull it a bit. also did the etches as well. since the edges usually get worn out the most. Also sanded off the orange tip and painted it black.

Is it close enough specs to fit a SERPA holster for a real P220/P226?

It should be very close to the real one since it is licensced by Sig Sauer, and it should fit, We shall see soon, my serpa holster for it will come in today~

I am confident it will fit though

My KJ fits fine in a SERPA so this should be no problem.

You wouldn't wanna... sell it to me... would you?
(directed to drummer and NN2H)

Sell what? My Glock? Nobitchgetawayit'smine. Unless you give me $9001

Oh, i was thinking u had the P226. I am trying to get myself one after seeing how good they are at the game i was at yesterday.
