Default Sig P228 Two Tone

New to my Sig family is this P228 factory two tone that was made in 1991. The older P228 two tones are somewhat scarce and I've been looking for the right one for some time.
This gun was advertised as having only 15 rounds through it. After breaking it down, I believe it. There is no wear at all on any of the rails, and the locking block and barrel still have just about all of the finish on them.







With one of his P228 brothers, my first Sig that I bought in 1996.

Thanks!
I found it on Gun Broker. I'd rather buy from the local bricks and mortar shops, but older guns in this condition are getting harder and harder to find locally.

Post up a picture.
Sigs look good no matter what condition they are in. Nothing like a Sig with working "character"

I have a factory Nickel P226 made in 1991 that I found on Gun Broker last year as well.

Now, you need to ask if it was a typing error -- or if when using my fingers to count that high, I got confused since I only have 10 fingers .

Thanks!
This one is super clean. Most P228's (and Sigs) this old have quite a bit of wear on them. I haven't seen many this clean.
