German Sig Sauer P228 9mm Pistol Serial B127216. Pistol is used in good condition. Slide shows some wear and small spots of very light pitting. Bore is bright and shiny and has strong rifling. Marked KB on the slide chin (the underside of the slide near the muzzle end), which is the most common location for West German and German SIG Sauers, this suggests a 1991 production date. Comes with black plastic grips and one aftermarket Meggar 15 round magazine. See pictures for more information.

The P228 is hammer-fired and fires from a locked-breech, short-recoil method, with a hammer drop safety. It is recoil-operated and fires double-action/single-action (DA/SA), with a double-action pull around 12 pounds and a single-action pull of 4.5 pounds. The slide is made from stamped carbon steel with a pinned breech block. The barrel is 3.9 inches long. The frame is made from aluminum alloy, and the overall weight is 26.1 ounces unloaded. The overall length is 7.1 inches, height is 5.4 inches, and the width is 1.5 inches. The trigger is also extremely smooth, and I’m sure that is, in part, due to the fact that this is a very well-used firearm. The trigger has been pulled thousands of times, which helps to smooth it up nicely. The double-action is super smooth, and the single-action breaks very nicely. The grip (factory original) is good, and fills the hand very well. There are aftermarket grips available, but for me, the factory version works just fine and seems to fit both large and small hands equally well. The texture also offers a positive purchase, even if the shooter’s hands are wet.
