Help with Sig 220?

[Woof Woof]

This 220 was fairly neglected looking when I got it-just dirty and didn't look like it was shot much at all. Just spent some elbow grease and found the Ebony grips from a guy on the Sig forum. It really is a great shooter and one of my best looking pieces.

You know what sucks? Now that I really want the gun the current owner isn't getting back to me. Hopefully I hear from him soon.

I finally got in touch with the gentleman who is offering me the P220. He tells me the proof mark is a "p" in a circle below the chamber on the barrel lug. He also says that there is no date code. The slide says "Made in Germany" but it does say Exeter on the other side of the slide. So what does this mean?

Mine is a recent model. On the right side of the frame it says:
Sig Sauer Inc. Exeter, NH.
Then right below it says:
Frame made in Germany

I figure I'll get it. From what I've been told its hard to get a better full size .45.

I'm sure you'll like it. The 220 is one of the best .45's made IMO.

Plus, on the practical side, any holster you buy for the 220 will fit the 226 that you're going to want next.

Just make sure the holster is the correct one for the railed Sigs.
Railed Sigs will not fit in rail less holsters.

No rail on the one I'm looking at, thanks for the tip!

I know, I know... I'm gonna need to pick up a second job. Or a third.

I know what you mean. Here is mine. It's a more recent build however I want to get a project gun in the future.
