Has anyone seen a full stainless or nickel SIG P226 in 9mm? And I don't mean one with blued moving parts, a full stainless/nickel model. I saw MT had one on his page but I'd like some more examples if that's okay.

Do you mean MoviePropMaster2008? I'm not the same guy. I'm just one of the other admins.
The all-nickel SIG P226s are somewhat rare. I see them from time-to-time on sale on the SIG forum, and they're usually quite highly priced. They were only made from 1988 to about 1992, and then SIG switched to making the two-tone P226s which had just the steel parts finished in stainless/nickel. |

Oh I thought you were the same guy! I sent you a PM for all of PropMasters uploads thanking you too! Silly me!
I did some research on nickel models rather than stainless models and found a few, so I know about 'em now. Don't know why on earth people stop making all silver guns, they're so pretty. |

![]() As far as the SIG P226 goes, I think there were issues with the strength of the frame on the all-silver model, or so I've heard. |

They're kind of rare and usually cost a lot for this reason. That, and the fact that they look cool, which is always very important.
![]() BTW, "The Beast" is on this Thursday. Apparently, Patrick Swayze uses one of the all-nickel P226s as his sidearm on that show. Reason enough for me to watch it... Last edited by MT2008; 01-12-2009 at 07:23 PM. |
