[IMG:left]  [url=https://flic.kr/p/2kUxVB5][/url][/IMG]Just thought I would share my new find. P220, West German/45 cal, date code 1991, Was 50% less than anything on Gun Broker and yet looks like new. The rub spots are where I rubbed out the serial. I am a happy camper.This message has been edited.

Very nice indeed! Did it come with the Rosewood grips? Did it come with the box and paperwork too? I'm guess you paid north of $1,000? I got one about 3 years ago and feel lucky to only have paid $750 for it. | |||

That looks really nice. The duty version 220R stainless is very heavy. Local shop had a ton of scuffed up, rubber gripped LE turn in's for $475 bucks, and it took forever to sell them at that price. I kind of regret not getting one, but it didn't fit my hand and would require a bunch of new magazine and holster purchases. Enjoy that in good health. That's a really beautiful gun, especially with the rosewood grips. "I vowed to myself to fight against evil more completely and more wholeheartedly than I ever did before. . . .

Your P220 is not stainless steel but rather some type of plated finish (probably nickel). It is also a bit newer than 1991 as evidenced by the reinforced receiver. Judging from the spur hammer, it was most likely produced in 1993 - somewhere between serial numbers G 211299 & G 219166. | |||

Unfortunately, it did not come with book and box, just three mags, and it came with the original black plastic grips....----cost 700+tax.

You are correct, it is a 1993 date code KD---I miss read it originally, thanks for the correction.

Congratulations on a great looking gun. I hope it shoots as good as it looks. I like the looks of the wood grips, but found the black, plastic, checkered grips to be more practile for me. YMMV Niech Zyje P-220 Steve | |||
