Local gunshop has a Sig 220. It's used but excellent to new condition. It is however 9MM. I'd only seen 220's as 45's and in fact have one. I also have the 226 in 9MM. I'd never trad a double column for a single but either 220 just fit my hand better than the 226. Has anyone seen a 220 chambered for 9MM. He only has one magazine for it and was unable to find any in catalogs he was using. I'm guessing this is a pistol that's several years old and mags won't be currently listed. I'm wonderig how hard they will be to come by. They basically look like 45 Sig 220 mags with a grove down each side to let 9MM's in but keep 45's out. It's got the older black checkered plastic grips but aftermarket will fit it. Sights are conventional with rear bar and front dot. Very smooth action, I'd just never seen 220's in anything but 45 ACP. Any info welcomed. Thanks
 
Good call on Ebay for magazines. At least this sig doesn't have the issues with the hi-capacity clips the glock 19 had.

I'm jealous, that's such a fun little gun.
 
Gun shows are a great place to find good deals on all sorts of mags.
 
BTW, the P220 also comes chambered in the .38 Super as well. It's a fun gun to shoot in any of the three calibers.

eBay policy.

No magazines that can hold more than 10 rounds may be sold.

At first I thought it was simply a knee-jerk reaction to the Assault Weapons ban that has since expired in 2004, but they still cling to that policy, and even transferred over that policy to PayPal when they bought them out.

Paypal also put a stop to firearm and some firearm related transactions, so be careful buying and selling through private parties like in classifieds. People still do it...they just creative in the item description.
 
I love all my Sigs...There is a catalog out there called CheaperThanDirt, I've seen it once and they seem to have magazines for ANYTHING...A Google search could also help...
 
I've got their catalog, I'll have to look. I just like the feel of 220's. I keep trying new grips on my 226 but not quite there yet. Thanks
 
Have you tried the "Houge" slip on rubber grip..Never used it on a Sig, had one on the department issued Baretta and it made a difference...
