Just thought I would say a big hello to everyone here from over here in Sweden !

I am from England really but moved here with my wife whom is Swedish nearly 4 years ago now.

In England the ownership of handguns is forbidden, when I moved here to Sweden however I discovered that shooting clubs exist Big Grin I joined the local club and two years later on I am now the very proud owner of my Sig P229 Two Tone in cal .40 and I absolutely love it !



I do have two other pistols now as well, a Ruger P85 MkII 9mm and a High Standard Sharpshooter in .22lr. I have got to say though that my Sig outclasses the others by a long way Wink

I do have however one question (sorry if it's a dumb one) but can someone please explain the differences between railed and non railed versions of the sig's ?

Shaun.

Welcome to SIGforum. Nice looking P-229.

There are no dumb questions here, trust me.

The railed version has a rail on which you can attach a light or laser.

Here is a non-railed P-220.



Here is a railed P-220ST Langdon.


Long Live The P-220

Welcome to the forum from Pennsylvania. 229 is a great platform, one of my favorites.
