Overview

Ambidextrous SAO safeties are consumables on a gun that gets shot hard, and the P226-X levers are sold one side at a time. The left lever, part 1202084-02-R, is the side carrying the slide stop catch; the right, 1202076-02-R, is the plain side. A pair means ordering both.

Fitment is narrow and worth reading twice. These are X-series parts. Older SAO P226 models take a different lever and are excluded outright, so an SAO Legion or a pre-X single-action gun is the wrong host even though the frame looks close.

Safety geometry is also a box question on an X-series competition gun. Wide SAO levers are one of the things that push a P226X past the IDPA box gauge regardless of what magwell is on the frame, so if a box fit is marginal, the safety is one of the few parts with any give in it.

Key Features

  • Factory SIG replacement rather than an aftermarket copy
  • Left part number 1202084-02-R
  • Right part number 1202076-02-R
  • Left lever is the side with the slide stop catch
  • P226-X series fitment

Pros

  • +Factory part, so geometry and hardness match what the gun shipped with
  • +Sold per side, so a single damaged lever does not mean buying a pair

Cons

  • A pair costs twice the listed price
  • Does not fit older SAO P226 models, only the X series
  • Wide SAO levers can put an X-series gun outside the IDPA box
