Long story short, dad got a Sig P226 several years ago for free from a customer whose husband passed away. He never carries it, so I'd rather let it sit in a holster than a safe
It's a two tone 226, I believe the slide is a stainless steel finish. The proof marks underneath the muzzle are a "JJ" indicating it was made in '88. It says "Made in W. Germany" on the right side of the slide, and "Herndon, VA" on the left. It has a ported barrel and slide. The serial number is U354 00x. I found on a forum a list of Sig Sauer models and serial number prefixes and suffixes to indicate what they are, and the U354 prefix was non-existent on the list. It has a standard Sig Sauer DA/SA trigger with a decocker on the left side of the weapon. Anyone have any bright ideas as to what this is? I couldn't find any model of 226 that matches it.
PS, I tried registering on sigforums.com and it wouldn't recognize my gmail account...so I came here
I'm not looking to sell it, I love this gun...just wanting to know if I have something special or not. Regardless, it's a nice gun. Thanks fellas.
