Sig Sauer P229 Compact Double/Single Action Semi-Automatic Pistol 9mm Luger 3.9" Barrel (2)-10Rd Magazines SIGLITE Night Sights Black Finish
The Sig Sauer P229 is essentially a smaller version of the legendary P226, and walks the line between a concealed carry piece and a service pistol. Since its introduction in 1989, the variations of P229 have been used by Law Enforcement Professionals, Militaries, and Government Agents including the U.S. Secret Service. Sig Sauer upgraded this renowned design to create the P226 Elite. This highly versatile pistol comes equipped with SIGLITE sights for accurate shooting in low light conditions, as well as a slimmer and highly ergonomic E2 grip for enhanced control and concealability. Other improvements include a short reset trigger and a sleek Nitron black finish.

Caliber Dictionary
The Below Information Has Been Provided From Our Gun Caliber Dictionary And Is Meant For Informational Purposes Only. It Is Not Intended to Describe The Unique Specifications For This Ammunition.
The 9mm Luger (9X19mm, Parabellum, P08) was developed in Germany in 1902. Widely used in both world wars, it is the most popular pistol cartridge in the world, now widely used by innumerable law enforcement agencies and militaries (including our own) in both pistols and submachineguns. The controversy over its "stopping power" will never go away, but its attribute is that it is much easier to shoot accurately than larger cartridges with greater power...but more recoil. Advancements in bullet design for law enforcement and personal defense have narrowed the gap considerably. The 9mm Luger is a world standard, chambered by virtually all makers of semiautomatic pistols, with a myriad of factory loads. The most standard is probably a 115-grain load at 1160 fps, with common bullet weights ranging from 95 to 147 grains, and +P loads at higher velocity. — Craig Boddington
