The P226 Elite is a full-size, DA/SA pistol chambered in .40 S&W, with the slide marked P226 Elite and the barrel hood stamped .40 S&W. This example was manufactured in 2010 and is U.S.-made, with the frame marked SIG SAUER INC., EXETER-NH-USA.
Elite features include an extended beavertail grip frame and both front and rear slide serrations for confident manipulation. The pistol uses a spur hammer and the standard P226 control layout on the left side: decocker, slide catch, and takedown lever.
The slide wears a black Nitron finish, while the frame is hard-coat anodized aluminum alloy. A railed dustcover with three accessory-rail slots (P226 R style) supports common light or laser attachments. Two-piece checkered wood grip panels with SIG SAUER logos come installed.
SIGLITE tritium night sights in a 3-dot pattern (MH3 marked) provide a clear, low-light sight picture. The sight setup pairs well with the full-size sight radius and the Elite slide profile.
Capacity is 12+1. The barrel length is 4.4 inches, with an overall length of approximately 8.2 inches and a weight around 34.4 ounces for this configuration. The action is recoil-operated, locked-breech, and DA/SA with a decocker for safe, simple operation.
