Seems like the sky marshals in Europe were issued replacement Sig Sauer P229 pistols from 2002 to take out of service recently issued P229's because of a less than one percent safety ... safety ... issue in the newer ones. Got their panties in a wad because of it and heads will no doubt roll at the department of airline security. Yet... a P229 for a P229? If that's the worst thing a sky marshal fears maybe he, or she, is in the wrong profession.
