Sig Sauer P226 Elite .40 S&W Semi-Automatic Pistol – German-Made Frame, Night Sights, 12+1
This Sig Sauer P226 Elite pairs the proven P226 platform with a German-made aluminum frame, extended beavertail, and factory tritium night sights. Chambered in .40 S&W, it offers a 12-round capacity and the smooth double-action/single-action trigger system that defines the model. Forward and rear slide serrations, rosewood-colored hardwood grips, and a four-slot Picatinny rail round out a full-size pistol built for reliability and control.

The German-made frame is less common on post-2010 P226 pistols, giving this example added collector interest. The matte black anodized alloy frame mates with a Nitron-finished slide for a consistent, duty-ready look.
Elite-series features include an extended beavertail that promotes a high grip and better recoil control, plus front cocking serrations for quick press checks. The external hammer offers traditional double-action/single-action operation.
Factory Meprolight three-dot tritium night sights deliver a clear sight picture in all lighting conditions. The four-slot Picatinny rail accommodates lights or lasers, enhancing versatility without altering the pistol’s lines.
Rosewood-colored, checkered hardwood grips add tactile control and a touch of classic styling, complementing the pistol’s understated matte black finish.
