The Elite Dark configuration brings together a Nitron-finished slide with front and rear cocking serrations, an external extractor, and an alloy frame featuring the extended Elite beavertail for a confident, high-grip feel. The DA/SA system with decocker is paired with SIG’s Short Reset Trigger (SRT) for fast, distinct reset.
Sighting is handled by adjustable SigLite night sights. The front is a dovetailed post with a luminous dot, and the rear is an adjustable square-notch with protective ears, giving a clear picture and the ability to fine-tune point of impact.
A three-slot integral accessory rail is machined into the dust cover for mounting compatible lights or lasers. Controls include a spurred hammer and textured black polymer grip panels with SIG SAUER logos for secure handling.
Markings are as expected for this model and era: the right side of the slide is marked "P226 Elite" and the left side "SIG SAUER"; the barrel hood is marked ".40 S&W SIG"; and the right dust cover is engraved "SIG SAUER INC., EXETER–NH–USA." The included steel magazines have witness holes at 5/10/12 and "MADE IN USA" stamps. The factory case end label lists "P226R, .40, ELITE DARK, NITRON, ADJ SLITE, SRT" with a date of 07-JAN-2014, and the serial on the frame matches the case label.
