Did SIG polish the bullet follower on these? I’ve only encountered the phosphate black color.

Thanks in advance

I've seen P220 Euro mags both ways. Most (if not all) of the Browning BDA mags had their followers polished "white". If I'm not mistaken, at least some Hawes era imports were also supplied with magazines with polished followers. I don't immediately recall if Interarms era mags came with polished followers, though something tells me the practice was discontinued before Interarms became the importer.

Thanks. I’ve seen several like this today at the Tulsa gun show and I didn’t know if the factory did it or if some ambitious shooter did it.

All my Browning/SIG BDAs came with polished followers. All early SIG Sauer P220s I have purchased came with blue followers.

I speculate that SIG Sauer polished the followers along with the slide flats to dress up the Browning pistols a bit.

When the Browning BDAs first came out in the late 1970s, I remember all the grumbling about how cheap and ugly they looked. A lot of guys said they thought the guns looked like something the Germans would have made in the final days of WWII.

Give me a plain jane unpolished P-75 any day.

Yeah. I was looking to see if this was a real thing SIG did or if someone simply polished up the floor plates on some of these. I don’t shoot my euro mag release P220. It’s a safe queen that had been shot maybe less than a box through it over its life. I do have shooter guns, but this one is just too nice and harder to come by.

I have only had blued..
