Picked up the P320-M17 over the weekend. I've had the P226 since 1992. Haven't put many rounds through the M17 but was pleased with what I did run through it. Also saw the promotional and submitted my paperwork to receive two 21-rd magazines. Will add a threaded barrel in the next few months - close to 10 months before I can take possession of the suppressor I purchased last week I expect.

Great looking pair.

Looks like a standard German pinned breechblock P226 of the era - 9MM of course, with some sort of aftermarked finish - because back then it was black/blued, Nickel, 2-tone, or K-Kote (shiny black).

FDE hadn't been invented yet.

Correct, it’s a W. German stamped model. It’s wearing green and FDE shades of Birdsong’s Black-T finish.

Thanks, P-220. I showed the M17 to a friend of mine Sunday - his will be in tomorrow. I should have asked for referral credit from my dealer.
