EXETER, NH (December 20, 2000) – The SIG Sauer P220 heralded in a new age of semiautomatic pistols in 1975. Brought on by popular demand, SIGARMS continues the tradition of superior craftsmanship coupled with innovative technologies with the P220 .45 ACP in highly durable and corrosion resistant stainless steel. Both frame and slide are precision engineered and manufactured out of a solid block of stainless steel. Built upon the superior features of the traditional P220, the new stainless steel model offers a rugged alternative to law enforcement agencies and civilian shooters looking for a pistol with a superlative reputation as a robust and reliable sidearm.
The P220 in stainless steel offers the shooter a firearm with a proven track record of out –of-the box accuracy and reduced recoil. The added weight of the steel frame also brings the firearm back on target for quick follow up shots. Soft, rubber grips add to the shooter’s comfort. The P220 stainless steel meets the same requirements as all other firearms in the SIGARMS Classic Pistol line up with the innovative 4-Point Safety System. The safety system consists of a patented automatic firing pin block, a decocking lever, a safety intercept notch and a trigger bar disconnector. Other safety features include a long double-action trigger pull and a slide that must be locked open before disassembly making the SIG Sauer Classic pistol line one of the safest and most reliable handgun lines on the market today.
