Description

With numerous law enforcement and federal contracts, the P229® is one of the best selling SIG SAUER® pistols available. Now with the introduction of the new Elite model, the P229 is more popular than ever. The new P229 Elite features an ergonomic beavertail grip, front cocking serrations, front strap checkering, SIGLITE® Night Sights, custom wood grips and the new Short Reset Trigger or SRT. SIG engineers designed the SRT to provide you the same great safety and smooth action of the SIG DA/SA with a comfortable reset that is 60% shorter for faster trigger return and surgical control during high speed shooting. The P229 Elite is available in 9mm & .40 S&W. The P229 Elite Stainless features a stainless steel slide and frame in a natural stainless finish.
