Help me pick a P220

[Inebriated]

I don't mind wear marks if it's from me. And I think it adds character. If it wears evenly/consistently, then I like it better than new... I don't feel like I have to be as careful.

Then there is no doubt. You should go with the Dark.

The BEST Option

For the same MSRP you could go with the BEST option...

Non-rail P220

Definitely check out a regular non-rail P220. It's a very popular gun for a reason.

The beavertail doesn't serve any function, and non-rail sigs are lighter and feel better in the hand than railed versions.

I aagree about the beavertail being entirely functionless. However, I like a rail on my gun, especially if I don't have a dedicated "nightstand" gun. I carry a Ruger LC9, but have a streamlight equipted Glock 19 for the things that go bump in the night.

Not a fan of the coloration, and no SRT.

Beavertail is comfortable, and looks good. Also, I intend to mount a light at some point. And "feels better in the hand" is subjective... I like the feel of the Elites.

I voted Stainless. Dude, in a year from now, you ain't gonna care that it was $100 more. Get the one you REALLY want, not the one that is a couple bucks cheaper.

It is a classic that you can have for the rest of your life.

Price difference isn't an issue. Especially with the amount of money total. I just can't pick which I REALLY want yet haha.

I own the P220 Dark

I love this gun. I removed the aluminum grips and replaced them with Houge wrap around rubber grips. This gun is a pleasure to shoot and extremely accurate.

I wonder if that FDE is applied over an anodized frame or a bare frame. I've thought about applying Cerakote to a couple of my P220s that are showing some wear.

I'm still a good $600 short... steadily saving until I'm 21 (June). I don't want to miss the money.

I just bought a new Sig P220 myself today. I went with the bare base alloy frame, nitron slide, DASA version with night sights. Cant wait till my dealer calls! Them fancier models are nice, but dont care for the beaver tails myself.
