    SIG P220 .30 Luger

    The SIG P220 in 9mm Parabellum has been the Swiss Army sidearm since 1975, hence designated as the P75 by the army. It replaced the P210 / P49. I was also widely used by police forces across the country, and a good number were built for civilian and sport use. As the Swiss used the 7.65 mm Parabellum cartridge previously in the Swiss Luger, it has remained a popular caliber ever since.

    I recently found a nice / almost new P220 in this caliber



























    With my Police (gendarmerie) surplus 9mm from 1977





    The early models had a ridge on the top front of the slide. They are locally referred to as « butt crack » models.

    Interesting. I had a 220 9mm with the ridge but it wasn't rounded off at the front. Mine was late 70s so 77-79. The other thing it had was a metal lip that was on the bottom of the grip.

    It was surplused from Geneva Switzerland PD

    In the Sig picture thread if you go back like 6-7 years it's in there
