P220 Stainless no rail

Saw one today at my local Cabelas. I've kinda wanted a P220, but every one I've seen has a rail which I don't want.

This one had a stainless slide, NH markings, and was either a DAO or DAK pistol. Can anyone help as to exactly which model this particular 220 is?

Thanks.

Got me curious.

Interesting. Has there ever been al all stainless P220 without rails? I don't recall ever seeing one.

Or maybe OP's talking stainless slide, alloy frame P220 without rails?

Don't think it was all stainless unless the frame was Nitron over it.

It had a Stainless frame too? If it's just a two tone it's not that rare. I had one in DA/SA like that. A lot of DAO and DAK guns I see lately are CPO's Sig builds from left over new parts and older frames/slides. I think the closest you will get to a fullsize 220 in all Stainless with no rail is the older guns that had the useless 220 sport short rail. Sig put out a couple of frankensigs with those frames.

Factory FrankenSIG, or aftermarket one. Either way, if you have no original box, then just have to call SIG with the serial # and get the info.

What, exactly, are you saying here?
If it's an alloy frame gun then it's NOT a "P220 Stainless", it's just a regular P220.

To be accurate, yes, but it was a special run P220 Compact.

That 220 is soooo rare. Years ago I hunted and hunted for one, found one at a dealer in Phoenix but he didn't want to bother with shipping it.

As for a full size stainless 220 without a rail, I am skeptical, but I guess it isn't impossible.

To clarify, the pistol has a stainless slide only.

Sorry for the confusion. I'm going to try to get back over to the store this evening for a better look.

Sounds like probably a non-R P220, perhaps an Gen1 SAS since you said it might be DAK?

I have two stainless frame 220s from Eckernförde - one in 9mm and one in .45.

No rail, no tail... I suspect there are others out there.

Aren't those the SL pistols that had to be imported though?
I can't picture one of those showing up at a Cabelas...

Will post them when I get back to my office. They were posted a few years back. That is when I leaned about 9x21 guns built mostly for Italy. Sig was kind enough to add a 9x21 barrel to the 9x19 order.

Update: Went back to the store for another look. Although on the slide is stamped Exeter, NH on one side, it's stamped Made in Germany on the other.

I believe the slide is nickel plated instead of stainless. The serial# on the frame starts with G. It has dead Trijicons on it and an internal extractor and is DAO.

Is this possibly a problem child with regards to the extractor? Without removing the grips, is there anyway to know if it could be converted to DAK?

ETA:It has the separate breech block.
