SP2022 .40 discontinued?

[Guerrero]

Thanks for the PSA PSA. This gun has been on the low-priority list for a long while, but German-made, French contract, unissued, was too hard to pass up.

The picture is a gun with a 2009 date code. I suppose that will be approximately what ships...from the pictures, I couldn't spot any French markings.

I assume no one here has received one yet...?

@0ddl0t sorry about the thread drift. @fly out you ordered one? Tell us how it goes!

[fly out]

Yes, I did.

To bring it back to the OP, I also picked up the SP2022 parts kit at SIG which covers 9 and 40. I assume this isn't in danger of going out of stock at SIG, but, knowing my luck, better to be safe than sorry.

Like impact damage?

I considered that, but they're supposedly unissued?

He means, "from being dropped (in surrender)"

There are several threads about these pistols on the Sig forums. That is my understanding as well. They will have serial numbers on the frame, slide, and barrel and are thus referred to as “three number guns.”

Some minor differences between these guns and recent issue guns is that the grip texturing is different (it will take the newer grip modules however) and that the rail is not a true M-1913 profile. The finish also resembles the finish on an M&P rather than Sigs typical finish.

whoops, sorry; Thought there was a .40 available for the OP. I was wrong.

I can joke about it without being accused of anything untoward, because genealogical research uncovered that I am of partial Breton descent.

...and I speak (some) French and have good friends in Paris


I should have posted a "I see what you did there"

Quick, amateur-hour shot...I see that I didn't even address the lint from wiping the oil off of the slide.



At first blush, I'm very pleased.

AK date code (as in the photo on the item listing), triple serials, Kiel proof marks. (Most of what I know about these I've learned since ordering it.)

I'm glad I originally clicked on this thread.
