SIG Sauer P226 Elite R2 9mm Luger – Optic-Ready, Night Sights, 15+1 Capacity
The P226 Elite R2 takes SIG Sauer’s storied duty pistol and adds modern enhancements that matter in real-world use. An optic-ready slide, SIGLITE tritium night sights, and an extended beavertail alloy frame give this full-size 9 mm both adaptability and control, while the short-reset DA/SA trigger keeps every follow-up shot consistent. With its clean bore, excellent overall condition, and factory accessories, this example stands out to buyers who want a ready-to-run Elite model without the wait.

The Elite R2 slide features front and rear serrations plus an R2 cut that accepts several popular micro-red-dot footprints once the rear sight plate is removed. Tritium 3-dot SIGLITE sights provide clear, low-light aiming reference right out of the box.
An extended beavertail alloy frame gives the shooter a higher, more secure grip, while the three-slot accessory rail on the dustcover accommodates weapon lights or lasers. The one-piece E2 polymer grip wraps the frame for a slimmer circumference without sacrificing control.
SIG’s short-reset, curved trigger works in traditional double-action/single-action mode and pairs with an ambidextrous decocker for safe lowering of the external hammer. The 4.4 in. carbon-steel barrel uses SIG’s proven short-recoil, locked-breech design for reliable cycling with 9 mm Luger loads.
Built in Newington, New Hampshire, this Elite R2 retains the P226 lineage trusted by U.S. Navy SEALs and countless law-enforcement agencies, delivering 15+1 rounds on board with each factory magazine.
