Old sig article Green/Nickel P228
Article would be from 1988 to 1996

Could be Swiss police gun or some rare gun.

It was in a magazine for from sig promotional advertising at say shot show.

I have all of the issues of Sig Arms Quarterly that ran from 1989 to 1996. I'll go look. There were plenty of articles about the P228, but I don't remember anything about a rare Swiss Police Handgun.

Thanks I appreciate ate it

I know I remember the gun but can’t find the picture of it

I have checked a lot of the old magazines and it may not have been Swiss but anyway

It could have been a flyer from an old shot show in Dallas -

I don’t know “everything” about the P228, but I’ll say that my thinking hasn’t changed since OP adked about this a couple of times previously.

I could be wrong, though, of course.

I may just have to dig through all my old magazines if I still have them.

It was not a production model for sale one very early gun.
