This Enhanced Elite configuration features a stainless steel slide with a matte black Nitron finish over a hard-coat anodized aluminum-alloy frame. The slide is marked "P229 Elite" and includes front and rear cocking serrations for confident manipulation.
Ergonomics are a highlight: the extended beavertail, undercut trigger guard, and frontstrap checkering work with the SIG SAUER one-piece wraparound E2 textured polymer grip to provide a secure, comfortable hold. The compact 3.9 in barrel and 15+1 capacity make it a capable, carryable package.
Trijicon tritium night sights are installed, with an orange-outline front sight for quick acquisition. Controls include a decocking lever for its double-action/single-action (DA/SA), locked-breech system and a reversible magazine release.
The P229R integral 3-slot accessory rail is built into the frame. Documentation on the case end label lists model code E29R-9-ESE with a date of 27-SEP-2012, aligning with the 2012 year of manufacture.
