Sig Sauer P220 elite

[Barbaroja]

Playing with a new toy today. This is my first higher semi auto pistol (more of a revolver guy) and I really like it. Very accurate and feeds anything I’ve tried so far including 230gn gold dots, Lee 230gn TC, Lee 230gn RN and Hornady critical defense. Very nice trigger in it and the wrap around g10 grips fit my hand very nicely. I was hitting my 8” plate out to 50yds today with ease. Looking forward to shooting it a ton this summer.Anyone else have one?

Not that specifically, but recently acquired a P220 Legion optics ready with which I swapped the slide on my P227 so I could have a red dot on the P227. I Put a Romeo 1 Pro on it and like both a LOT. But I am extremely fond of all my Sig Sauer pistols though, especially the DA/SA's including the 3 P226 .40's, my P226 Legion 9mm, and my P224 .40. All have good triggers, and are wonderfully accurate and reliable. Sigs hammer fired pistols are my favorite platforms in the semi auto pistol category, well maybe a toss up with 1911s.

Interestingly enough I have always been more of a revolver guy myself, perhaps that's why I am drawn to the DA/SA all metal Sigs.

I am positive your P220 Elite is freaking sweet. I am jealous of the threaded barrel.

Anyone else have one?

No Elite models, but a W. German and a two-tone 220R. Some (including myself) would say that the 220 is hands-down the best non-1911 pistol in .45 ACP. Great choice, nice pistol!

Anybody have any recommendations for a quality holster for this thing?

Need to narrow that down a bit. A holster for what purpose? Range use? Competition? Concealed carry/IWB/OWB? Leather/kydex?

 

[Barbaroja]

Competition and an IWB carry holster but mostly just interested in what others are using. Doesn’t seem to be a lot available. I am considering a simply rugged cuda with the IWB straps

The SIG store ( https://www.sigsauer.com/gear/holsters-pouches.html?model=1609 ) shows holsters from Mitch Rosen and Blackpoint Tactical, which should mean they have a mold and should offer other options from those makers direct.

I have two, both in 10mm. Lovely guns. congrats.

I actually carry mine in the woods in a Diamond D Custom Holsters, Alaskan Hunter, with a drop loop holster.

Nice 220.

I use an Alien Gear paddle holster or Safariland.
226 and 220 use the same holster.

I like El Paso saddlery.

I have a 227. Similar, larger grip. Like it.

40-some odd years ago, I made a rifle deal with a friend and he was short a bit. He offered me a German 220 for the balance, and I accepted.

Figuring I couldn't lose. Upon taking it out to the range, I fell in love with it.

Shortly there was not a 1911 in sight around my place. I still have that same 220 today, my favorite autoloader.

My 220's replaced my 1911's back in the late 90's. Had a number of them, both W.German and US, as well as P245 and P220 Compact. All great guns.

I used Blade Tech IWB holsters for mine.

The Cuda with the iwb straps is hard to beat. Make sure it has three slots for their Chesty Puller rig or just order it with the CP rig matching. Then you have all your bases covered with the best.
