Hopefully this post will help someone post up their thoughts on this gun since he waited so long for it and he received it last week.....


The P220® Carry Elite is an 8+1 capacity compact-length pistol with a full-size frame. Chambered in .45ACP and available in a durable Nitron® finish, the P220 Carry Elite features the new Short Reset Trigger or SRT. The new SRT was designed by SIG SAUER® to deliver the same great safety and smooth action of the SIG DA/SA with a comfortable reset 60% shorter than the standard DA/SA. This short reset provides for faster trigger return and surgical control during high speed shooting making it ideal for competitive shooting. With its enhanced ergonomic features of a beavertailed grip, front strap checkering and front cocking serrations, the P220 Carry Elite is an excellent choice as a big bore carry pistol. Its beavertail grip allows the shooter to obtain his or her grip quickly and with confidence even under stress. Each P220 Carry Elite comes equipped with SIGLITE® Night Sights.

That's MSRP so you pay $2400. That price is high compared to what Guntech sell it for though.

You can actually upgrade your sigs in the same family of guns to the SRT. After installing one in a customer's Sig, I ordered one for my 226 and it does make a noticable difference in the reset travel for double and triple taps.
