Tips for installing RS Sig E2 grip on the TM P226 & KJW P229
Here are a few tips and mods that were required to install a RS Sig Sauer E2 grip conversion kit.
In this case, I installed a grip my KJW P229, but most of these changes were also done when I installed a grip kit on my Creation aluminium clad TM P226.
The kit includes a new decocker, main spring housing, hammer strut, grip & a tool for removing the grip (not shown). Sticker and key ring were added bonuses, not part of the kit.
Modifying the RS parts to fit.
Now to tackle fitting the grip .
All four of the moulded on grip bushings need to be reduced in diamter, (I used my dremil freehand to do them). This is needed so that they will fit inside the recesses of the grip.
I aslo had to do this to the Creation metal frame for TM. The grips shape and the clam shell tension makes it nearly impossible to widen the diameter of the grip recesses.
Grip modification
I hope this comes in handy for anyone else who wants to change their P226 or P229 to a real steal E2 grip.
(Optional last step, find out where your cat disappeared to when you turned on the Dremel tool
)
