SIG SAUER P229 Alloy Stainless Elite – 9mm Luger, 3.9″ Barrel, Stainless Steel Slide, Alloy Frame, 15-Round
The SIG SAUER P229 Alloy Stainless Elite 9mm Luger is a premium double-action/single-action (DA/SA), semi-automatic pistol that combines the classic P229 platform with the refined features of the Elite series. Designed for shooters who appreciate traditional SIG SAUER craftsmanship, this model features a lightweight alloy frame, stainless steel slide, enhanced ergonomics, and precision-oriented upgrades.
Chambered in 9mm Luger, the P229 Alloy Stainless Elite features a 3.9-inch barrel, a durable stainless steel slide, and an aluminum alloy frame that provides a balance of strength, handling, and reduced weight compared with an all-stainless configuration. The Elite package includes an ergonomic beavertail frame, front slide serrations, enhanced grip design, and SIG’s refined shooting controls.
The pistol uses SIG SAUER’s traditional DA/SA trigger system with a frame-mounted decocking lever and includes a Short Reset Trigger (SRT) for faster follow-up shots. With SIGLITE® night sights, premium grip panels, and a 15-round magazine capacity, the P229 Alloy Stainless Elite delivers a combination of classic styling, durability, and performance.
