So I had a really nice convo with Sammy. I told him that I saw my p226 German. Turns out that I have the original design, since it's a folded slide, internal extractor and this cool looking piece of metal around the ejection port. It still has the rail and the mepro lights. I think it looks very cool, I also noticed that the finish was different on the slide compare to the other stainless steel slide p226 I used to own. It was lighter as well. He told me that fold slides are a too expensive to make and that's why they stopped making them. He told me that the reason why I have it it's because sig sauer had a contract with some country's military to make some folded slide p226s for them, and there were some extra ones, thats how they ended up in America.
I am in love with the gun, that's a collector's piece IMHO
13 more days!
anyways, would you guys tell me more about recently made p226 with folded slides?
And please correct me if I heard something wrong.
