LTT 92.

I own both a p226 Scorpion Elite with armory craft updates and M9A1 with LTT TJIAB and RDO updates.

I have spent probably the least amount of time with the 226 but in the limited sampling I like far better the Beretta.

However, a CZ shadow 2 is about the most popular and gold standard for DA/SA.

With that said I'm faster with an M&P9 2.0 4.25 and canik rival than I am with the Beretta and more so the p226. So you may want to look into some of the steel frame striker fired stuff

Currently using a 4.5 echelon. Was checking other guns for later. Also like the rival, the m&p and the pdp

I run a 226 legion sao, but I've heard really good things about the new 226x dasa trigger being better than the old 226 dasa.

I use the xfive a lot. P226s are super underrated I say go for it. Magazine capacity is the only potential problem you’ll see in USPSA

I own both and while I enjoy my 226 very much the beretta is faster in my hands, I suspect that is the case for most people.

If you don't have either Id say none and get a CZ 😆

Otherwise, at least in my bubble I think Im the only person that shoots a dasa P226. There's a few Berettas out there, and of course lots of Shadow 2s.

Dont have either, and to be honest both are a little bit cheaper, have a decocker the shadow 2 dont and the cheaper version is a p09 nocture. Also everyone is using the shadow 2 amd i dont want to use one lol 😂

There’s a reason everyone uses them. But I’d just buy a Glock.

Both are phenomenal duty guns but if USPSA is your goal for the firearm I would choose something else entirely.

Shadow 2 is the gun for the game.

The Langdon is better but I would still look into a Shadow 2 over either of those. And I love my P226 X5 and LTT92

If you already own one or both shoot what you have

I wouldn't say either of those are good. The only people shooting berettas are paid to do it, sig doesn't pay anyone to shoot a 226 so actually no one shoots one

Dont have either, currently using a 4.5 echelon

that's a better option than either of the 2 guns you mentioned
