Made in Switzerland at Lenzburg, this 208S is marked "Hämmerli 208 S" with the caliber designation ".22 long rifle." It uses a fixed barrel with an internal reciprocating bolt and a forward-sliding top cover, a configuration prized for stability in precision shooting. The steel frame and top cover wear a blued finish, and the barrel measures approximately 6 inches.
The factory label indicates the Standard Pistol configuration with a 1,000 g trigger. The two-stage adjustable trigger is set to approximately 1,000 g (about 2.2 lb), providing a crisp, predictable break suitable for target work. Sight regulation is handled by a square front blade paired with a micrometer-adjustable rear sight.
The top rib features longitudinal serrations, cross-slots, and tapped holes. An aftermarket front barrel weight marked "Knøpp ent." is installed, adding forward mass to steady the sight picture. The right-hand walnut anatomical target grip includes a palm shelf and stippled panels for secure, repeatable hand placement.
Single-column factory magazines include witness marks to 8 and polymer floorplate extensions; two 8-round magazines are included, and the pistol’s capacity is 8+1. Importation is noted by SIGARMS, Exeter NH on the factory packaging, and both the Hämmerli factory box and the SIGARMS outer shipping box carry matching serial labels to the pistol.
