Our Assessment: The Sig P229 is one of the finest combat and duty handguns ever designed. It has every feature you could want on a handgun; polygon rifling, decocker, unobtrusive safety, light weight, good sights, and outstanding design. Accurate, reliable, and as tough as they come, a list of users of this design would occupy a full page, but it arms everyone from the US Secret Service to the Bangladesh Navy! This one is in like new condition, features FOUR 10 round magazines, and the ability to accept higher capacity magazines. It is chambered in the hard-hitting .40 S&W caliber, which would make it as fine a defensive handgun as exists today. This one appears to have sat unused since its purchase in 2004, and will make for a very happy winning bidder!
