I got rid of a glock 19 and got the 225a1. After using the sig, you couldn't give me another glock. It carries easier and safer. , and shoots and groups better. I feel safer with a hammer fired gun as apposed to a striker fired one. Jim Swarthout.
I have the 225 A1, love it. Great carry gun actually and capacity is not an issue. In a civilian defensive scenario it carries plenty of rounds to get the job done.
Welcome to the dark side, I also have a Sig 225 A1 but the Classic edition (wood grips) love the gun, wish the capacity was better but honestly 8+1 will do. The trigger on mine is better than my M11A1 and both of my 229s. Figured I got lucky lol.
Thanks for another great video. I just bought one in 2024 and it goes for $635 to $685 on Gunbroker. The 225 A1 is a nice CCW and range gun because of the combat accuracy and recoil impulse. I agree with the baby Legion reference.
Greetings from Kentucky....similar story with my P239 SAS. I bought it used in 9mm and the moment I had it in hand it just felt right. And as Paul Harvey would have said: "that's the rest of the story."
West Germany used the P6, the P225 was for export and had a lighter main spring. Then Sig dropped the 225, and brought out the P239 in1996-2018 chambered in 9MM, 357 Sig, and 40 S&W. Also the P239 was single stacked.
I watched several videos on this gun and fell in lust with it. Took it to the range and fired 100 rounds of 124 grain then 400 rounds of 115 grain. My right side grip came loose around the 300 round mark. I hand tighten it, but it came loose again. I hate the 10 lbs trigger in DA and will replace the spring. However, I do love the gun. It's super accurate and feels great in my hand.
I own this pistol and love it. It totally is a mini Legion and fits my hand like a glove. You stole that gun at that price. Congrats. The capacity makes no sense since it looks like there is room in the mag for 2 more rounds. It was very accurate in my hands. This gun is awesome! Thanks for sharing.
Great review! I own a number of Sigs and will definitely add the 225 to the family. However, as you stated capacity, for me, is probably the only drawback! Love your content!
All metal hammer fired double single action guns for me. Old School Cool. Keep your ugly Block Glock's etc firearms. Yup I know they work, but it's like going to the fanciest Supper Club in town & taking thee ugliest date hanging on your side,... ain't happening with me. Having carried alot & still do carry 8 +1 round 1911's with a couple spare mags, when the flannel shirts come out, I've certainly never felt lacking for firepower in any way, and find that sweet single action only trigger a dream to behold, just like a beautiful date !
Why would I pay Sig Sauer for a P225 A1 single stack 8+1 round, 30oz., 5.2 inch high, almost 7inches long gun, when I could have a P239 in 357sig? {7+1} much smaller & still easy to control. Sig made a BIG mistake taking that gun out of there line-up. The other argument would be there are way too many high quality 9mm on the market that hold at least 10+ 1
The date today is October 4th, 2022. I have finally ended my search for my 225 A1 since I just found a brand new one! I always wanted a Classic Edition but that I did not find. This was a very difficult gun to find but I did and being a Sig lover, those all metal, hammer fired, DA/SA's are simply unbeatable. The A1's SRT is awesome. I'll be sure to let you know how it performs and then I'll reveal where I found one new and unused. I'm now going to begin a search for the Classic Edition wood grips. 😋
Good review. The P225/P6 was actually the first iteration of the P225a1. The a1 is a remake of the P225/P6 but with improvements, even though there are few similarities. The P225a1 is intended to replace the P239 in that size category. I like both the P239 and P225a1 and own both.
"You can get twice as many rounds in gun that's the same size, and weighs less--I don't understand why anyone would buy this gun." .....says the guy who's target looks like it took a negligent discharge from a sawed-off shotgun. I have a P239 (same gun, mechanically, as you pointed out). The DA is super manageable and in SA I can pick off the numbers on a silhouette target at 10 yards. Groups are tight. Ergos are right. Maybe someone can wring that kinda performance out of a G19/M&P... but I've never seen it. Not saying the G19 doesn't have its merits, but there's a reason guns like this still have a place--and cost more. Thanks for the insightful video.
@@1776orbust Sweet. Good luck with it. I've heard a lot of people say they prefer the 225-A1s ergos to the P239s. I held one--felt nice. But I don't see my P239 going anywhere.
The original P225 (P6) is better suited to use with heavy gloves due to the larger trigger guard. A huge mistake not to incorporate that feature into the design of the P225-A1 and not use a semi-staggered 10 round mag like on the Shield Plus... they used a P239 mag with a ludicrous extended baseplate. Such a pistol with an accessory rail for a white light would arguably be the perfect civilian police service handgun.
I’ll stick with my original p6 ( manufacturer date 11/80.) yes it my be under rounded but look at all the sub compacts when they came out. 6 7 8 rounds where what they came with. Weight wise it weighs the same as a loaded g19 and is roughly the same dimensions ( lxh ) as a g19 ( yes had both) double action was really heavy, put “ lighter “ spring in it doable. P6 is my carry gun, as well as steyr m40 and rock island fs 1911 . Weight really isn’t that different between them. So that’s my take.
It’s a bloody shame the P225-A1 is only purchasable in the USA. I live in Switzerland, across the pond in the centre of Europe and the only version available is the older P6 version of the P225. I hope that the P6 will perform as good as the newer A1 version despite the age. :-/
Over the years of shooting DA/SA SIGs , I like to shoot 1 shot DA & 1 shot SA , then de-cock , do it again & again .. I have found No Issues ( No 2 impact areas ) on the target , when shooting 2 different triggers . I have found if you shoot slow double action , it's harder than if you smoothly pull through at a faster pace , just keep the sights lined up as you do it .
Hell of a deal. I remember you mentioning it on your stream and come across one in my recent travels. Used in like new condition for $890!!!! SRT triggers are a must for me on DA/SA sigs. As much as I love my 229s they don’t get carried. The ASE and the legion literally feel the same. Other than the legions controls being a bit slimmer. I’m sure you’ll enjoy shooting it and hopefully you can get some upgraded sights.
The Sig 225 A1 is a single stack. It has a brother in a double stack known as the M11-A-1 another brother is the P 229 Compact but it has a rail. The P 229 Compact series holds 15 +1 but is available with compliant 10 round magazines. Overall a nice pistol and there is a P 229 Legion but I believe it around $1000-$1100.
1776.. Thanks for the video. I can't justify to myself, spending a$1000.00 for a gun. Maybe I could if I was into competitive shooting and the money invested was the difference between 1st or last place.
I believe It was originally designed for fighter pilots. I have the p-228, essentially the same gun, but made in West Germany (mint, never shot) for $800. So you did well. The 226 is a bit big in the grip for me, but the 228/225 fits like a glove.
I owned the P239 (.40SW and .357Sig). The gun shot very well for a smaller pistol. Only reason I got rid of it was I was getting into larger frame pistols and traded it away since I rarely shot it. Wish I had kept it though
I have the P239 in .357 SIG. I got it, hoping it would be slightly more concealable than my P229. Sadly, the approximately 3/4 shorter overall length wasn't worth the hit to capacity for me. I still have the P239, I just don't carry it.
Great gun , Great buy !! Likely will never need more than 8 rounds . My M11-A1 SIG is as good as any gun I own & better than most , it's nearly the same gun . Good For You !!
Like it. Like Sig in general .& CZ’s. Both of those are very nice by the way.I agree completely with you about having to hold a handgun to feel if it’s right for you or not. Would you happen to have any information,positive or negative, pertaining to the Chiappa rhino that you could share with me. I’m very interested in the 200 DS or a 30 DS. I have been looking for a rhino ,of any model ,to at least hold in my hand to feel it and check it out. Ideally find one at a shop that had a range on premises & shoot one . I’ve gone in about 20 or 30pawnshops & gun shops in the last two years or so. No luck. Haven’t had a chance to go to a gun show lately. I’m thinking I could find one add a show. Everyone that I’ve talked to about them has a different opinion of them. From what I hear ,and it makes perfect sense, is that the later the manufacture date the better as far as reliability and any problems the earlier models had being resolved. Figured I’d ask you even though it has nothing to do with this video. I enjoy your videos and you seem to know your stuff so please let me know if you have any info you could share with me. thank you B.Wills NC,USA PS. A rhino and & a second or third run of P365 are at the top of the list of wish list -next purchases\investments. I say third run on the 365 because i’ve got a big jar I put my pocket change in. When it gets full It’s generally right around 850 to $900. 2/3rds full so Getting one of the two soon . I’ve broken that rule a time or two but try not to buy things I can’t afford to pay cash for. Thanks again. Over and out
I have the Talo model as well. Like the "Sig tramp stamp" reference! LOL Love mine. The trigger reset is amazing. I have only carried a G19 since 1989. Once I finish training on this one it will become my "go to" CCW pistol.
I've had this gun for a few years. It is basically a "baby Legion" and yes, I've owned two Legions. People complain about the capacity, but the benefit compared to Sig's higher capacity handguns in this similar size, is IWB you barely notice that you are carrying it. I carry AIWB and sit most of the day and this is VERY comfortable. It's also a very consistent shooter and built like a tank. I have no idea how many rounds I have through it, but not one snag and it's eaten all types. The single action trigger and short reset on this make it a dream in this class.
Excellent review.... you got a hell of a deal on that one, I paid almost double for mine! They are sweet little shooters, I hope this one is a keeper... enjoy
I think it's a great pistol! I don't currently own one, but I'm looking. I carried a Sig 226, 229 & 220 during my law enforcement career. & I just love the feel & quality.
Hogue makes the grips that are on that gun for Sig as well as the ones that come on the Legions. Any Sig that comes with factory G10 grips the grips are made by Hogue. The grips on the Legions as well as the 225A1 are Hogue's Extreme series with Sig medallions.
What a great looking handgun, you got a great deal on that beauty! That is a great option for any of the round-restrictive states. That SRT option is outstanding, love that feature. Have a great weekend brother!
I’ve got one too, they’re great. The grips are wonderful if it’s raining on you, very secure. They shoot sweet and are accurate, solid. I do not EDC mine anymore, it is stored above the toilet for JIC. I opt to carry the P320 Compact .45 now because it’s almost identical in size, feels lighter, and has one more round of .45acp. It’s not as accurate for me to shoot as this 9mm, however, I’m still quite proficient. I will always miss not having a double action trigger when my guns are appendix carried.
I have a P6 and I absolutely love it. One of the best fitting pistols I own and the only metal frame Sig I've actually kept (I moved a 226 and a 228) I even have the original German leather holster and mag pouches for it and sometimes I even open carry it on the weekends in that set up Its not the most accurate for me, but I can put a fist sized hole in someone at 25 yards and that's all this gun needs to do Buying a 225 now though? Immensely overpriced in my opinion and I prefer the square trigger guards of P6s over the curved one on 225s. If they made a "modern" P6 I may be more inclined but for 800+ dollars for a 225A1? No thanks
Did a lot of research and comparisons before purchasing. It was my primary carry until it was stolen. I then purchased the 43X. I love this gun……BUT…..I missed my 225 so bad that I bought another one. Never Ben happier with a handgun. It just “fits” my hand and is an extremely precision instrument. I am always most “on target” with this gun. Hard to find. Worth the search.
I did a project on an old German p226 changed out all the parts with new and i mean every part. I think it is better than my the legion List parts Barrel, solid stainless steel guide rod, Trijicon night sights, grayguns trigger, short reset trigger G10 grips, new hammer spring, and a cerakote job. And probably a few other parts that I forgot to mention. It was a fun project but it was a little spendy I probably could have bought a legion and a half lol.
Was a little surprised to see you cover this gun since I think you are not really a Sig fan. This gun has had my interest for a while. I really like the classic P series Sigs but the trigger reach for me is a little bit of a reach. This P225 may some that. I bet it is a pleasure to shoot!
@@1776orbust I love my metal single stacks, but age and nerve issues, I want lighter. I didn't realize it was alloy when I typed that. And that the PCR is essentially the same size... Dang!
I have the P6 and the CZ PCR (Tristar C100), love them both for my carry pistols. 15+1 or 8+1 depends on if you got to get milk at 10 at night in Detroit or 10 at night in Mayberry! Hahahahaa!

Exactly….I’ve got a 1988 W German P225 and carry it quite often
The A1 really is a gem. ❤ If you can't get out of a bad situation with 9 rounds and an extra mag, you're having a REALLY bad day 😮

P239 is so much better. It’s lighter, more compact, same mag bodies but shorter with the same round count.
I have 239 and 225. 225 is my favorite of the two.
I've owned the p239, excellent gun. I currently have the 225. Either case is a winner. Both excellent firearms

Very nice review. Yes i thought it was a Legion for a moment. The DA/SA P200 series is Sigs strong suit.
I have a p239 In 9mm it’s a great pistol
@yea bouy P238 is a SAO .380. P239 was also availble as a .40S&W caliber, and .357sig
Great review! I own a number of Sigs and will definitely add the 225 to the family. However, as you stated capacity, for me, is probably the only drawback! Love your content!
Thanks and yes it could be the only weakness
Looks like someone is going to get the Sig bug haha
Awesome Vid-!- Great comparison as well-!- Love the PCR And was considering the 225 before purchasing it.. The 225 was just to expensive...
I absolutely love my CZ-75D PCR. It's my EDC gun. I agree with you 100 % shauen24. I also put night sights on mine an new grips too.
Great pistol. How often do you pick up a handgun and have the grip just feel this perfect?
All metal hammer fired double single action guns for me. Old School Cool. Keep your ugly Block Glock's etc firearms. Yup I know they work, but it's like going to the fanciest Supper Club in town & taking thee ugliest date hanging on your side,... ain't happening with me.

they do sell 10 round mags for 225.
No not yet. However, must 1911s carry the same ammo limit
Do the hammer hit the circle thing when u fire
I love mine; a Talo with more aggressive g10 grips and the Sig tramp stamp. It made me leave the 229 in the safe
I have the Talo model as well. Like the "Sig tramp stamp" reference! LOL

So, it's basically a single stack P228.
Yes
Those grips are beautiful. Don’t replace them.
I won't be 👍
What a great looking handgun, you got a great deal on that beauty! That is a great option for any of the round-restrictive states. That SRT option is outstanding, love that feature. Have a great weekend brother!
I’ve got one too, they’re great. The grips are wonderful if it’s raining on you, very secure. They shoot sweet and are accurate, solid. I do not EDC mine anymore, it is stored above the toilet for JIC. I opt to carry the P320 Compact .45 now because it’s almost identical in size, feels lighter, and has one more round of .45acp. It’s not as accurate for me to shoot as this 9mm, however, I’m still quite proficient. I will always miss not having a double action trigger when my guns are appendix carried.
Love the Sig's... Have a M11-A1 FDE and A P224 DAK Nickel Slide in 40! looking to get a P225 currently but it will need to be a bargain ';-)
WAyyy tooo expensive new
Sigs sweet spot is definitely all metal guns.
I think so
I own a sig 225 and it shoots way better than my Glock 19. I have the old model made in Germany.
I have a P6 and I absolutely love it. One of the best fitting pistols I own and the only metal frame Sig I've actually kept (I moved a 226 and a 228)
I even have the original German leather holster and mag pouches for it and sometimes I even open carry it on the weekends in that set up
Its not the most accurate for me, but I can put a fist sized hole in someone at 25 yards and that's all this gun needs to do
Buying a 225 now though? Immensely overpriced in my opinion and I prefer the square trigger guards of P6s over the curved one on 225s. If they made a "modern" P6 I may be more inclined but for 800+ dollars for a 225A1? No thanks
I like the looks of it, but every time I get a sig I end up getting rid of it for one reason or the other. I am digging the shield for now.
I own/love the original P225, shoots and build is second to none!
You should get Trijicon night sights, they are a whole lot brighter than a lot of stuff out there
Did a lot of research and comparisons before purchasing. It was my primary carry until it was stolen. I then purchased the 43X. I love this gun……BUT…..I missed my 225 so bad that I bought another one. Never Ben happier with a handgun. It just “fits” my hand and is an extremely precision instrument. I am always most “on target” with this gun. Hard to find. Worth the search.
Very true
Looks like a great firearm I had some friends that had the German police trade ins and they loved them.
I did a project on an old German p226 changed out all the parts with new and i mean every part. I think it is better than my the legion
List parts
Barrel, solid stainless steel guide rod, Trijicon night sights, grayguns trigger, short reset trigger G10 grips, new hammer spring, and a cerakote job. And probably a few other parts that I forgot to mention. It was a fun project but it was a little spendy I probably could have bought a legion and a half lol.
ahh but this is your legion
This would be perfect for mag restricted Connecticut.
The PCR weighs about 24oz without the mag, the sig its about 30oz. PCR with cajun triggger is better IMO
Unfortunately I have zero experience with a full cajun job however the srt is awesome. It would be nice to have that out of the box from cz
Would it be good for someone with small hands?
Galloway Precision makes the mag a 9 round capacity. If you can afford $13 to $15.00.
That's cheap for a Sig magazine. If Sigs name was stamped into it they would cost twice as much.
If I could find one for a good deal like you did I would buy it.
The P225 and the P225A1 are TOTALLY different pistols.
And what would be totally different between the two
Was a little surprised to see you cover this gun since I think you are not really a Sig fan. This gun has had my interest for a while. I really like the classic P series Sigs but the trigger reach for me is a little bit of a reach. This P225 may some that. I bet it is a pleasure to shoot!
I'll rephrase that I'm not a fan of polymer Sig
@@1776orbust got ya. Great video by the way
I have a 220 Elite in 45 and I love it. My only regret is that I didn’t buy this, instead.
no regrets ever
1776 or Bust I guess it’s just a reason to purchase another pistol.
I have looked at this a couple times. Just haven't had one in hand yet. Single Stack DA/SA is needed! I would like to see one in Polymer.
that's funny I picked it up because its metal
@@1776orbust I love my metal single stacks, but age and nerve issues, I want lighter. I didn't realize it was alloy when I typed that.
And that the PCR is essentially the same size... Dang!
@@niadhf there is defintiely something to be said for aluminum
Great review on a great pistol.
Not for me.
You might try VZ Grips!
Now you gotta try a p220 😬
Average gunfight is three seconds long within 3 yards and three shots 9 round is more than enough
Awesome Sig Sauer P225 Sir.
Thank you sir
I have the P6 and the CZ PCR (Tristar C100), love them both for my carry pistols. 15+1 or 8+1 depends on if you got to get milk at 10 at night in Detroit or 10 at night in Mayberry! Hahahahaa!
😁👍
