- P220 has 3 calibers, 9mm is one of them. Check the Sig catalog, they are
- on the 1st page. By this, I believe 9mm-P220 is part of regular production.
- However, "Assmebled by RPI" means this was made for a special contract, and
- "overrun" is also true - otherwise you won't be able to buy it, right :-).
