The Forum Masthead has had me coveting a 225 since day one.

As per the gunstore selling off the personal collection, I bought the least expensive 225 they had. It's a 2001, but it has box, wrappers, extra mag and all papers.

Very nice, Marzy. A 225 is on my eventually list too, and a 357Sig 239.

Very nice! I will always regret selling my P225 back in the 1990's. Treasure yours.

These seem they will be like the old HK P7s.

I believe they will start becoming valuable collectibles.

I wish it had a late 80's or 90's serial number, but I took what I could get.

What year were these discontinued?

Cool!

Congrats on your P225!

I hope to have one some day...

According to Sig they were made up until 2019.

Is there a P6 on the side too?

2010 was the last year the P225 rolled off the assembly line.

Nice gun for $560. I would have had to buy it as well. I kick myself for not getting a P239 at my local ffl dealer a few weeks ago. It sat on the shelf for a couple months at only $379 for the 9mm. I tormented myself saying I didn't need it but when the less dominant side of my brain finally took over and I went to go get it, it was gone.

Mars Attacks my gut also told me that the P-225 would be a "modern" classic like the HK P-7. Nice score, when they rarely show up for sale they don't gather dust, for most owners the P-225 is a keeper, difficult to improve on perfection., Sig got it right the first time, A1 a disappointment.

I picked up a 2009 P225 last year and a HK P7M8 this year…

Two of my absolute favorites

I'd be looking for a 225 too. I already have 2 mags. One is nickel or stainless (???)
Also a wrap in front rubber grip.
Just need the gun Smile

Nice looking P225.

I'd agree with the P225-A1 sentiment. Never felt the same to me.

Very nice pistol and excellent addition to a collection. If you have the chance give us a range report.

Nice, I love the P225. It’s one of my favorite guns to take to the range.

I wasn't real fond of the trigger on the used euro imported police pistol I dry fired, but for the right price...
Looking forward to the test firing video.

Congratulations! I’ve become a renewed P225 fan of late, thanks to a German and a West German each courtesy of a couple of fellow members, along with a nice stack of factory magazines.

More to come, but I couldn’t resist setting up a little Galco double-shoulder-rig action for them…

I also have a Kramer horsehide belt scabbard and magazine pouch enroute. Until then, I’ve found that a Milt Sparks IPD double-magazine IWB pouch for 1911 magazines is a fair stand-in.
