There are many happy stories of someone long ago buying a SIG and decades later having a perfect gun. 220,226, 229,239 all outstanding units that live on.

I still have mine that I use to this day. My dad bought them from Bob's about 50 years ago. Insane I still use the damn things and nothing wrong with them. Warm as heck and still hold air.

Of Course, we love the gun itself but the story, like many have stated, makes it a cherished family treasure forever.


Too many SIGs .. ... Nah not really

Cool Story.
I bought my first Sig at Grice's in 2003. A P220ST. Still have it.
Never bought a gun a Bob's Army Navy but I sure bought a bunch of other stuff. Still like to stop at both when I get up that way.

My favorite of all the sigs and the favorite era of them as well. Fantastic gun and cool lifetime story with it!
