   Maybe on an AR. But on that, if someone gets to see the tribal marks, either I’m doing it wrong, or they’re doing something wrong.

   Yeah that looks… not appealing at all. I carry a P229 and I got a great deal on it because the local tribal police used it as a range weapon for a few years before selling it to Scheels. I am quite thankful they didn’t add this to it

   I can’t believe a gun with a finish that sloppy got past QC.

   Wait, what’s that you say?

   There are good tribals, but that is the worst job I have ever seen.

       Aye, I do but I still thinks it looks nice.

       I’d prefer if it were dull black on duller black rather than glossy on dull and I would change the design of it but I get the mental image of what they’re trying to do and I think it’s nice!

       I do seem to be alone in that thought however.

     I’m alright with it. If people hate em, maybe they’ll sell for less and I can pick one up for a deal.

    I seen it in person last April at the NRA show. It is fugly. However, I do really like the feel of the grips.

      The feel of the grips is what sold me. I was just looking around like I always do. I looked at the Seals 226 with the Anchor on it but just wasn’t moved to buy it. Then the salesman pulled out the Tribal. It fit so natural in my hand and the feel was almost erotic. I can take or leave the Tribal, but the ergonomics is great.

    Does it come with a gift certificate to your tattoo parlor of choice to get either a tramp stamp or a barbed wire tattoo? Why not combine all the crap editions they sell into one, gloriously overpriced pistol? Next up, the P227 SAS TacOps Diamond Plate Combat Elite Enhanced Equinox Tribal Extreme. Yours for only $1500.

    Get back to me when then spend more than $10 on barrel finish. They can’t even get that right.

    Sweet heaven, whyohwhy…

    I’ve seen good tribal tattoo art, but most it, including whatever the hell they marred that beautiful SIG with is crap. Is this a new trend to replace the bright green zombie crap?

    Not to mention that most guys who tend to get tribal tattoo art have no idea of the history of tribal designs or even what they mean… kind of like people who get random Chinese characters tattoo’d on them and have no idea how to read the character or its nuances.

    Putting that crap design on the SIG reminds me of that lady who tried to re-paint that ancient fresco of Jesus… LOL.

    The tribal tattoo stuff is ugly, but I am really happy to see that that gun lacks an accessory rail. That is how SIGs should be (with the exception of the MK25).

    Cool! I could wave it around as I dance around a fire wearing nothing but a codpiece and wooden mask! Wouldn’t even need ammo. Show it to zombies and watch their heads explode!

    If you are a tribal police officer or Agent and are Native American it is a cool duty weapon, not for the average pink guy.
