My Sig P220

Recommended Posts

220R-45-B = Sig Sauer P220 Nitron, .45 ACP, 4.4" BBL, Contrast, 8RD

That model came with a rail and contrast sights. If it had Sig factory night sights we would expect the -BSS suffix. Are your night sights aftermarket?

For your reference, although these are the current models and I know they've trimmed this line in the last couple years.

Nice pistol. Good luck with a sale.

I have a similar model I have seen used ones going for around $7 - $750 or so. Far as trade-in value goes, some places will only give half of what they can sell for, maybe 60%... I think $400 trade-in is low though... for that price, just keep it, at least until you can find a private buyer...

Hey... where's the SAO??? I just 'browsed the collection' and SAO is only available in 10mm Hunter model!

That's a shame. I'm glad i bought mine when I did. A 1911 in Sig clothing.

Yeah, they changed a lot of the models recently. Got rid of the X5 and X6 (not that I could afford either but man I wanted one or both of them) added (amazingly) a SAO 22 version of the 226 and removed the target sights from everything except the 10mm hunter :( among other changes...

You're right! The Sig P226 SAO (9mm) is gone as well. So I'm glad my wife bought one when she had the chance!

Nothing wrong with .22, but it's not 9mm.

For a nice little up-charge, yes.

I fondled a P226 Legion DA/SA and it was really nice. But I'm not sure it's that nice.

I have the legion p229 da/sa and it is sweet.

You get 3 mags, night sights and the trigger. (Free case and challenge coin too)...

Look hard enough and they can be had for what most others average in at.

Well, my P220 started as a P220 classic 22 then I added the 45 upper with night sights so it's similar to the p220 nitron but just has the old style grips. Total into it for me is only about $800. The new p220 nitron is going for about $950 street price but I got a 22lr upper as well and can probably turn around and sell the whole setup for at least $750 so not bad since I've had it several years now.

I thought about trading it in on a stainless version but will probably just drop a SRT kit and a Legion trigger in it and call it a day. Thinking about some nicer grips too but the stock ones actually work pretty well for me... Just going to keep shooting mine. It is a good pistol and I like the 45 acp as both a range round and a defense round. 

Slammedbowtie, what were you looking to trade it in for? Changing calibers, changing brands or just trying to upgrade to a different version? If you were just thinking about a Legion or something, you might want to just think about doing a few upgrades and keeping what you have... The trigger is the biggest upgrade to the Legion series. I have tried a few of them dry fire in store and I like the trigger but I'm sort of ambivalent about the new sights and other upgrades. I like the grips but those are easy to add too. To me the Legion is only tempting if you don't have a P220 already or you just want bragging rights or something :)

Just wondering...

    • Before you tell me not to move to NJ, I know, it sucks. lol  I actually lived in Jersey most of my life and moved over to PA 5 years ago, and now I plan on coming back.  I bought my first firearms when I was a NJ resident, so I am pretty familiar with the laws, however I do have a couple questions... I have acquired a nice collection while living in PA and obviously want to make sure I follow the law when I come back.  I have a few AR's that I built myself.  As long as I pin the stock and replace the flash hider with a pinned/welded muzzle brake, I am good, right? Also, regarding the "Other/Non-NFA firearms", would it be the same deal?  I have a couple AR pistol style firearms that I built.  The stripped receivers were bought as "other" on the ATF form at the FFL.  So, if I ensure the barrel is at least 12.5" and there's a vertical foregrip, would I be good?   I appreciate any assistance.  
    • Sorry, both are SPF.  Being picked up this week. Win M22  22 LR SPF to Ringwoodfrank.
    • Yup I see. Looks like right now you can only purchase the 2023-2024 permit still. I assume won't be able to purchase 24-25 season permit until July.
    • Just a heads-up for anyone who might also be in this situation. I joined USLS mid-April of 2022. Some time after renewing for 2023, I changed email providers, and dutifully reflected my new address on my account page. So, I have been anticipating renewal alerts at my new address, but those never arrived. I logged in to my account the other day, and was surprised to see that my subscription expired that same day. I went to my account main information page, confimed that my email address was correct, then went to the billing page, which showed my previous two payments, but which did not give me any apparent way to pay up for the new year. I requested support using the Customer Service form on the web site, but received no reply. Today I called their support number. Apparently changing the email address from my view of my account page did nothing to change the address that they use internally for billing purposes, including expiration notifications. Maybe they also use that address for replies to the support form, even if a different email address is entered there. Also, my account was set up to auto-renew and charge my credit card without my intervention, but that setting did not show on my account page in any obvious way. So, if you have USLS and have changed your email address since you last renewed, you might want to give them a call to ensure that they send renewal information to your correct address. The prospect of having legal coverage lapse while carrying in NJ was, for me, a less that confidence inspiring experience. I will note that the telephone-based customer service was excellent.
