Important - Please read:
- ALL US-made P226 SAO (P226 Legion and P226 Elite), 'some' NEW DASA models, as well as 'some' LDC pistols will also need a new hammer strut seat, which we offer. Please select it from the drop down menu. Please look at the bottom of your pistol. If you do not see a hammer seat with a brass insert to accept a screw (red arrow, Image #1 above) - you will need to get this hammer seat from us. You can select the hammer seat from the above drop-down menu.
- All Gen 1 X5/X6 pistols as well as all US-made P226 models will also need a new hammer strut seat PLUS the current production (longer) hammer strut. All US 226 pistols made after 2010 already have it. If you do not have this type of strut, you can purchase it from us:
- SIG Armorer's Super Strut - please CLICK HERE.
- SIG Factory Strut - please CLICK HERE.
M3 x 12 Socket Head screw is included. You will need M2 Allen wrench to install the magwell.
