I am collecting some German Sigs. Mostly buying from GB and have been happy with most my buys.
My question is how does one know German Sigs Vs parts guns etc?
My first Sig was advertised as a German P229 Sig. It has a seriel numbered frame and a same numbered barrel. The frame has the Exeter stamp and reads made in Germany. The slide has no markings with the German make.
My other purchase is a P220 in 45 ACP. The slide says made in Germany but the frame has no inport markings or seriel numbers matching the slide. Thbis is an older P220 with the Exeter marking on the slide and seriel number on the frame.
Please educate me Sig experts !
