SIG P226 SpecsĬartridge – 9×19 mm Parabellum. This success included the introduction of the SIG P228 a handgun that evolved from the P226. Although the P226 did not win the US Army contract (the Beretta 92SBF was cheaper than the P226, which was ultimately the deciding factor), the praise and attention that the P226 received as a result of this put it – as well as all of SIG – on the map and set the company and gun up for more future success. Designed for entry into trials held by the United States military to find replacements for their standard issue, outdated handguns, the P226 was one of two handguns (along with the Beretta 92SBF) to be deemed fully satisfactory by the United States military. After finding success selling the P220, Sig was emboldened and decided to produce a more advanced model handgun, the P226. The first Sig Sauer handgun to be shipped to and sold in the United States, the P220 was a refined version of the SIG P210, which had been the primary offering of the company. Sauer & Sohn (a German gun manufacturer), developed a new handgun, the SIG Sauer P220. Featuring a beautiful and aesthetic look, a high build quality and attention to detail, an easy to use design, and accurate and reliable shooting, it’s not hard to see why the P226 is so popular, as we will detail in this, our SIG P226 Handgun Review.
The flagship offering of SIG Sauer, a gun manufacturer for over 150 years, the P226 serves as an improvement on the P220, a single stack, 9x19mm parabellum handgun and the P226 predecessor. A full-sized service pistol, along with the Glock 19,the SIG Sauer P226 is one of the most widely-used handguns in law enforcement and military agencies worldwide, and has spawned several different handguns that feature the same P226 DNA. Apple has the iPhone, McDonalds has the Big Mac, Nike has Jordan’s, and SIG Sauer has the P226 handgun. Name brands often feature a trademark, signature product that people associate with that brand more than anything else.
