Sig Sauer P229 Serial Number

The frame says “FRAME P229 MADE IN GERMANY” but there are no other German markings on the gun, which makes it incorrect to refer to this as a “German-made” gun. But the auction listing for this gun was titled “SIG Sauer Sig/Sauer P229 40 Cal made in germany.

There is no absolute reference on SIG Sauer serial numbersavailable to the general public, but there is some usefulinformation available that's been compiled by SIG users.

Previous German-manufactured SIG Sauers had the proof test yearstamped on the barrel using the code below:

CPO Sig P229 40S&W Discussion in 'General Firearms Forum' started by TxGlock9, Nov 15, 2011. Note that a gun’s date code is different than its serial number. It’s impossible to decode a SIG serial number to determine when it was proofed, although you can try to locate the range of your SIG’s serial number in this list to approximate when it was made, or call SIG Sauer with the serial number and see if they have any info in their system. Lookup, sig sauer serial number lookup, sauer pistol serial numbers, sig p229 serial number, sig p239 serial number info, sig sauer p226 serial number lookup, sig sauer serial lookup anyone knows how to tell age via serial number I'd appreciate the info.. It’s impossible to decode a SIG serial number to determine when it was proofed, although you can try to locate the range of your SIG’s serial number in this list to approximate when it was made, or call SIG Sauer with the serial number and see if they have any info in their system. Serial numbers aren’t always truly representative of the. Sig has made the leap into the deep end of the pool to compete with the well-established pillars of the micro market, the Smith & Wesson Shield, and the Glock 43 9mms. All firearms shipped to SIG SAUER require a service request number and the serial number of the firearm. This number can be obtained by calling our customer service group (603-310-3000). A customer service representative will guide you though this process.

A=0, B=1, C=2, D=3, E=4, F=5, G=6, H=7, J=8, K=9

You'll probably see a 'P' stamped on the barrel lug on yourP229, which means it was proofed in the US at the Exeter, NHfacility. U.S. proof stamps do not carry a date code, evidentlybecause the proofing was done internally at Sigarms rather than bya testing agency as it is in Germany.

The P229 has the year of manufacture encoded in the first twocharacters of the serial number, but it appears to follow adifferent code. All P229 serial numbers in the references I'vefound begin with 'A'. Year of manufacture seems to be:

AB=92, AC=93, AD=94, AE-95, AF=96, AG=97, AH=98, AI=99,AK=2000

These codes are anecdotal: They're based on owner reportscompiled on the sigforum.com user forum. As with any such listthere are some inaccurate entries. A good guess in that your P229,serial number AE24826, was assembled in Exeter in late 1995.

LSB#: 171105MS66
Make: Sig-Sauer
Model: P229 Stainless
Serial Number: AM558198
Year of Manufacture: Circa 2006 (http://sigforum.com/eve/forums/a/tpc/f/430601935/m/7320040262)
Caliber: .40 S&W
Action Type: Single or Double Action Semi-Auto Pistol with Detachable Magazine. The gun does not have an external safety to safely carry in Single Action.
Markings: The left side of the slide is marked “SIG SAUER P229 STAINLESS / SIGARMS INC. / EXETER - NH - USA”. The right side of the frame is marked “SIGARMS INC. EXETER NH - / FRAME MADE IN GERMANY ”, and “AM 55 819”. The right side of the barrel at the port is marked “.40 S&W”.
Barrel Length: 3 ¾”
Sights / Optics: The front sight is a blade with a tritium lamp dovetailed into the top of the slide. The rear sight is a square notch dovetailed into the slide with two tritium lamps. The lamps have dimmed somewhat but are still useful in very low-light situations.
Stock Configuration & Condition: The grips are two piece textured black plastic that encloses the backstrap and leave the serrated frontstrap exposed. The grips are marked “SIG SAUER” and 'P229' near the bottoms. The grips show little to no wear. The grips fit well with no major defects worth noting. The grip rates in about Excellent overall condition.
Type of Finish: The pistol has a satin stainless steel frame and blued stainless steel slide with polished stainless steel flats on the sides.
Finish Originality: The finish is original.
Bore Condition: The barrel is bright with sharp rifling and no erosion.
Overall Condition: This handgun retains about 98% of its metal finish. The gun does not appear to have been used much outside the factory testing. There are a couple of very light marks in the polished area on the right side of the slide, light operational wear on the barrel and a small mark on the edge of one of the forward slide serrations on the left side. You have to be looking very close to see anything wrong. The screw heads are sharp and the markings are clear. Overall, this handgun rates in Excellent condition.
Mechanics: The action functions correctly. This pistol has a de-cocker on the left side of the frame and was not built with a magazine disconnect. We did not fire this handgun. As with all used firearms, a thorough cleaning may be necessary to meet your maintenance standards.
Box, Paperwork & Accessories: This pistol comes with a blue plastic hard case that numbers to the gun and two 12 round magazines, one with light operational wear in about Fine-plus condition and one in a sealed bag with no notable defects in Excellent-plus condition. The interior of the case is lined with foam which has softened with age and the exterior shows light marks and scuffs from storage. The case is in about Fine condition. Please note, the magazines will not be shipped to a bidder in a state in which they may not be legally transferred.

Our Assessment: The P229 is a compact variant of the larger P226, itself a double stack magazine variant of the P220. Because of its compact size, relatively lightweight and large magazine capacity, the P229 is a favorite for duty and concealed carry purposes. This pistol is a little more hefty as it sports a stainless steel and a steel frame rather than alloy. This extra mass will help tame the recoil of the .40 S&W cartridge and also gives the pistol a great aesthetic appeal. The gun has seen some range use but very little in our opinion. A great pistol in high condition to add to a collection or show off at the range. Please see our photos and good luck!
CA Legal or CA Private Party Transferable: This handgun CANNOT be transferred as a dealer sale in California but CAN be sold as a Private Party Transfer (PPT) at our Simi Valley shop. This does not apply to out of state residents. The high capacity magazines will not be provided to a resident of California nor to a resident of any other state with magazine capacity restrictions which prohibit it.
