Looks like the P210 is coming back, with an American-style mag catch:
Looks like a good move by Sig. If it’s made in Germany, the quality will be excellent too. The question is, will the price be outragious.
Over/Under is 2600 USD Retail- I say over.
I had one of the original P210’s.
You would be hard pressed to find a more beautifully executed piece of human engineering and quality. A pre WWII P08 Luger would be comparable.
Having said that, the changes that they’ve made were needed. The standard P210’s hammer will chew you up if you have average to large hands, and the mag release is a nice move.
By the time Kimber Clowns gets ahold of it, we’ll have Platinum Elite, Equinox, Rainbow Titanium, and (insert flavor) versions of it. I hope they stick with the Classic models with American mag release. This may be a good thing.
This is being made in Germany, so I don’t think Cohen will get a chance to make it a beavertailed pimptastic monstrosity.
Wow, just wow. I have been lusting after a P210 since about as far back as I can remember. Would really like an ambi safety version but I won’t hold my breath.
Interesting. It’s good to see SIG embracing their roots.
I have never fired a 210 but everyone I know that has raves about them
I’m genuinely interested, even after having never fired one…
I get it, but I’d still much prefer the original (P 49). It’s very true, what’s been said about the hammer bite. They eat me up. However, there’s a nice add-on beavertail that can be installed to solve that. Some might think it a sacrilege, but I’ve seen the finished install, done by a very nice Swiss gent named Viktor, whose shop I visited a few months back. It really is a classy treatment. I’m sure the new ones will be nice, but they’re not authentic, and it’s practically impossible that they could be nicer made.
I would shoot and fondle that thing until the finish was gone.
I’v always been intrigued by the P210 academically but I’ve never actually shot one. However I spent some time on a fire base with a bunch of Danes that were issued P210’s. They looked like well cared for antiques. The consensus among those guys was that they disliked the heel mag release and small capacity of the magazine for such a large pistol. It’s a neat design but largely obsolete. They wished they had Glock 19’s instead.
This is one of the few pistols that I have lusted for. Looking forward to seeing these make it back although I am sure the price will be hovering around $2k.
Can’t say I lust over handguns much these days – but a P210? I was just talking about it’s the only SIG I’ve never owned, and about the only one I really want.
Hmmmm.
Whenever talk shifts to P210’s I always think of this one worked over by Novak.
Very very nice! I’ve never gotten to handle or shoot a P210 but they sure do look purty 
GU
“Swiss precision, made in Germany” made me wince. IMO “Swiss Precision made in Germany”= not Swiss precision.
Meh. We’ll see.
Exactly
That is exactly what I thought as I read the title to this thread before opening it 
I saw it at IWA. As I said before, I’d rather have one of the originals.
