Sig 227

[LA Gun]

I guess I am coming to the party late. I had a spec question about a Sig I just bought off a Cal Gunner here and went to their site. As I'm scrolling through here's a P 227 listed(?). Wondering what the hell that was and how I've never heard of one before. Seems like its a 226 built up to take 10 .45 ACP rounds. Nice. Anybody actually seen one of these? How long have they been around?

Introduced at SHOT show 2013 this month. Reviews can be found online, but basically the reviewers are saying that it's what a P226 would be if it fired .45s

If it does make it to California's Roster in the distant future, it will come with a LCI and Magazine Disconnect.

I saw it at SHOT Show and talked with Sig for a little bit on it.

They originally described it as a P226 in .45, or a double-stack P220. I feel it's much closer to a Double-stack P220. It uses P220 slides and the grip is as deep as a P220. The E2 grips are perfect on it's frame, it's around the same girth as a Glock 21, but it's contoured much better.

They posted it on their website the week prior to SHOT Show and debuted it there. They haven't started shipping out just yet, but should trickle down here very soon.

In the first video posted above me, Bulter says he's holding the Carry model. He isn't. That's the normal full-size.

I hope this comes to California...I'll be first in line if it does.

having that lci and mag safety is kinda a bummer though, then again SSE should take care of that

But isn't the description vague on the roster? All it does is specify the model number, barrel length, chambering and finish- no SKU or safety features. You could order a non-CA version via gunbroker or some other online dealer and get it DROS'd.

I hope that they come out with an Elite version ...

You got it right, brother. Screw the LCI and magazine safety. I just hate a the neutering to make things available in CA. Just bring it in via SSE.

I hope that they come out with an Elite version ...

Man, now you are talking! Just a matter of time I say!

I wonder if "MADE IN GERMANY" P220 uppers will fit the new P227 lowers as well or if it has to be an American made upper.....???

[LA Gun]

I wonder is this version designed for a new military contract?

2nd in line, I want the SAS version.

Remember that it took Sig a year before the first P224s came off the line.

I would be quite surprised if they start shipping these before December.

This, in Enhanced Elite, or Dark Elite.

I'm rooting for an Elite SAO.
