I removed the rubber Hogue grips and installed the Sig slim-grips that didn’t fit on my other Sig, the 1989-year P220. They fit perfectly on this model.
The previous owner had a cat. I brushed out the spring and crevices.
This one has the “Nitron” finish on a stainless steel frame, so it’s also noticeably heavier than the other, aluminum-framed P220. Recoil shouldn’t be much of a problem as long as I grow Popeye arms.
The rail is a point where more weight can be added. Pretty soon it will be so covered in pistol-bling you won’t be able to pick it up. I’m thinking a light would be cool, I can’t afford a light/laser combo.
Switching between them there's nothing new to learn and no changes to make, no safety but the de-cocker tales away trigger-touching, and coming from revolvers I'm OK with the full-stroke double-action first squeeze.

Good on ya, sir.
Looking at stuff right now and considering doing something similar…probably Glock 17 or 19, as the SHTF backup to my Gen2 G19, which has been a peach…to no one's surprise.

Gotta keep it, “Two is one and one is none.” Besides it's also a New York reload. I'll figure something out. 🙂

Trade off the older model?
