NEWINGTON, N.H., (April 23, 2019) –With a history that dates back to 1949, the SIG SAUER P210 was the combat handgun for the Swiss Military, and is regarded as one of the most legendary, reliable, and accurate firearms in the world. Today, SIG SAUER, Inc. is pleased to introduce the American Made P210 Standard pistol to the U.S. Commercial Market featuring modern improvements, at a price-point that will allow more consumers to enjoy this timeless pistol.
“The SIG SAUER P210 Standard is an engineering marvel, and with this launch our product development has really come full circle in bringing our production of all SIG products back to the U.S. The P210 Standard combines the Swiss and German heritage that made this pistol legendary, with the ingenuity of being American made,” said Tom Taylor, Chief Marketing Officer and Executive Vice President, Commercial Sales. “The reverse rail on this pistol gives it precise accuracy. The thin contour grip, and balance in weight gives it less felt recoil, and the tuned, short trigger press truly makes this one of the finest handguns ever made.”
The SIG SAUER P210 Standard is a 9mm hammer-fired pistol, with a precision machined stainless steel slide and frame. The pistol features iron sights, upgraded ergonomic controls including a relocated manual thumb-safety for easier accessibility, a target grade trigger, custom walnut grips, a side magazine release, and improved beavertail. The pistol comes standard with two 8-round magazines.
P210 Standard:
Total length: 8.4”
Barrel length: 5”
Weight (incl. magazine):36.9 oz.
Height: 5.3”
Finish: Nitron
Sight radius: 6.7”
The new SIG SAUER P210 Standard will be on display at the SIG SAUER Booth (#3912) at the National Rifle Association Annual Meeting in Indianapolis, Indiana, April 26 – 28, 2019. The pistol is currently shipping and available in stores. To learn more about this pistol, visit sigsauer.com.
“…at a price-point that will allow more consumers to enjoy this timeless pistol.”
Which is WHAT?
$1250, so basically the same as a CZ shadow 2
….”with the ingenuity of being American made.”
It has been my experience that everything made by Sig USA has been trash compared to their German counterpart. Of course that is just my experience….
otherwise, a very good looking pistol. I know the Swiss/German made P210’s are amazing. I guess time will tell if that carried over to the guns made here?
+1
Swiss Arms should manufacture the prototype SIG P210 with its 18 round magazine. (one can dream)
Beautiful pistol but it’s been eclipsed by guns that will do twice as much at half the cost. Nothing wrong from a collector stand point but not particularly functional relative to the other options out there. I kind of want one thoug.
Interesting them touting the American manufacturing when it seems the US made Sig stuff had a worse reputation.
“The ingenuity of being American made” doesnt inspire much confidence. Will there be a diamondplate, rainbow finish, Nightmare, Legion edition? Ive always wanted a P210, but their reputation for precision came from autistically-detailed German manufacturing.
It’s Swiss, not German.
The confusion may arise from the fact that it’s from the German-speaking part of Switzerland.
More importantly, it isn’t made by autistically-detailed manufacturing (German) standards.
It is a well-known fact that all weapons in Switzerland are manufactured and forged by elves on full moon nights.
It’s that simple, really.
The last new P210s imported into the US were German built by SIG Sauer. Since then Komrade Merkel has shut down the SIG Sauer Germany export to the US train. That’s why the US arm is now building “P210s.”
That’s why SIG is building everything in the US.
Is it though? I would say the Mastershop and P210 were the last hold outs in Germany before the new regs?
Haven’t regular SIGs been built in the US for quite some time now? I always figured it was to save money. They’ve been making them here a lot longer than Merkel has been in power.
Looks like a pistol from the 40’s.
