Sig Sauer P229 229R9Bser2 9Mm 3.9 Or 10R Blk
$1,099.99
The Sig Sauer P229 Elite Compact is a purpose-built 9mm pistol that bridges the gap between firepower and concealability—ideal for both concealed carry and duty use. This compact handgun combines the proven reliability of Sig's P229 platform with modern features that appeal to shooters who demand accuracy and control without the bulk of a full-size frame. At 3.9 inches of barrel length and 5.5 inches in overall height, it's manageable for everyday carry while remaining capable enough for serious defensive or recreational shooting.
What sets this Elite Compact apart is the Short Reset Trigger (SRT), which maintains the safety and familiar double-action/single-action (DA/SA) operating system while giving you a faster, more controlled reset for rapid follow-up shots. The E2 one-piece grip ergonomics reduce sharp edges and improve control, while the beavertail frame front strap checkering provides positive indexing during high-speed presentations. Factory SIGLITE night sights come ready to go—no waiting for an upgrade—and the optics-ready slide lets you mount a red dot if your mission demands it.
Built for the shooter, not the showroom: the P229 Elite Compact features a stainless steel slide with Nitron finish, an alloy frame with hard-coat anodized finish, and a carbon steel barrel that stands up to training volume and defensive use. Two 10-round steel magazines ship with the gun, giving you options for carry or range work. The integrated Sig Rail accommodates lights and lasers. This is the pistol you can buy with confidence and carry without doubt.
