Among SIG Sauer collectors and enthusiasts, occupy a position of reverence. Whether or not West German SIGs are superior to the more modern US-made SIGs is a matter of debate best left for others to rehash. All I’ll say on the subject is that I’ve personally visited SIG’s manufacturing facilities in Newington, New Hampshire and have seen first-hand the passion, attention to detail, and commitment to quality of the US-based employees, and would have no reservations owning any of their current-production-era examples. Staring through the glass cases at the full-line up SIG’s Pro Shop in Exeter, New Hampshire, I wanted one of each!I must, however, admit that West German SIGs always have, and always will, hold a special place in my heart. Unfortunately for those of us who share that fondness, market values for original, serial number-matching, well-preserved West German SIG pistols keep climbing.

But if you’re feeling a little adventurous, there is still at least one way to enjoy the West German SIG ownership experience without breaking the bank. Auto clicker with proxy. For your consideration, I present the SIG Sauer P6. West German SIG Sauer P6 SIG Sauer P6 HistoryWhen a service pistol receives approval by the West German government for sale to police ( Polizei) or military units, it receives a numbered “P” designation. For years, the Polizei relied on the P1 (Walther P38), P2 (SIG P210), and P3 (Astra 600) service pistols, until the mid-1970s when the West German government adopted a number of new requirements. They wanted the next generation of service pistols to feature a DA/SA action, 9×19 Luger chambering, 8 round magazine capacity, and the ability to decock the pistol via an external safety or decocking lever. Walther quickly bolted a decocker onto their P38 and received the P4 designation, but nothing else was “modern” about it so the P4 never really took off. Walther later submitted an updated design to meet all the new requirements and received the P5 designation.

SIG Sauer submitted a slightly modified version of its P225 and received the P6 designation. Heckler & Koch’s new PSP ( Polizei-Selbstlade-Pistole or “police self-loading pistol”) was designated the P7. Mauser had also designed a pistol to meet the updated German requirements, but because it never went into production, it never received an official “P” designation. Among the three new pistols that did, the Walther P5 was unpopular and the H&K P7 was expensive, so the vast majority of German law enforcement agencies purchased the SIG Sauer P6. An estimated 40,000-ish SIG P6s were in circulation before the Polizei retired the SIG P6 in 2000 in favor of the less-expensive polymer-framed H&K USP (which received the P8 designation) and the Walther P99Q. SIG Sauer P6 (top) and P225 (bottom)The SIG P225’s external markings look identical to its P220, P226, and P228 siblings of the same era: proof marks on the slide chin, full serial number, “P22X,” and “Made in W.

Germany” marking on the slide, etc.The P6 was marked “P6” to the right of the ejection port. Initials indicating the police department to which the pistol was sold were also stamped on the right side of the slide. For example, a P6 sold to the Nordrhein-Westfalen state police would be marked “NW” while one issued to the federal criminal police would be marked “BKA.”A date code in the form of M/YY was also stamped on the right side of the slide, near the muzzle end. A P6 proofed in January of 1980 would be marked “1/80.” The last three digits of the pistol’s serial number would also appear on the slide under the date code, while the full serial number would be stamped on the frame.

P226 Feed RampSIG P6 pistols with date stamps earlier than 6/89 (June 1989) had slightly different feed ramp geometry than the standard P225. The original P6 feed ramp was designed for the full-metal jacketed “ball” ammunition used by German police at the time, but also seems to do fine with smaller 115-grain jacketed hollow-point rounds. However, the original P6 often had trouble feeding modern jacketed hollow-point rounds larger than 124-grain, so SIG updated the P6 feed ramp in 1989 to better support JHP ammo. Swapping in a P225 barrel or having the P6’s feed ramp re-profiled to the 1989 specs will fix the issue with larger JHP rounds. SIG P6 pistols originally came with the “old-style” P-Series hammer strut assemblyYou can swap out just the spring itself (SIG Sauer Part# MAINSPRING-2) or replace the old assembly with one of the updated versions (which is what I usually do). Explains all three hammer strut / mainspring assembly versions and gives you all the part numbers you’ll need to update yours. Also explains that when upgrading to one of the newer hammer strut assemblies with a plastic mainspring seat, the original plastic P6 grips will need to be slightly modified on the interior (just remove a little plastic) to fit properly.

But if you’re also planning to upgrade the grips on your P6, newer grips are compatible with the newer mainspring seats without any modification.If you’re considering replacing the mainspring with something lighter than the OEM weight, like a Wolff 17 lb spring, be sure to test for light primer strikes before you rely on your P6 for anything other than target practice. My personal preference is to always go with factory spring weights. Replace the Trigger If You Want One and Can Find OneWhile the P220, P226, P228, and P229 all share the same standard P-Series trigger, that trigger won’t fit in a P225 or P6. The P225/P6 trigger is only used on the P225 and P6 (again not on the P225-A1), but for those (like me) who like their trigger finger pad a bit closer to the grip, SIG also offered a reduced-reach trigger for the P225 that works on a P6 (bottom-left corner in the photo below). The slimmer “reduced-reach” P225 triggers were discontinued long ago, and are now difficult to locate, but if you’re lucky you might be able to find one. Aftermarket P225 triggers will also fit a P6. Classic P-Series trigger comparison Pop In an SRT KitThere are few upgrades to a classic West German SIG that make a bigger difference than installing a.

The word “trigger” is confusing in this case, that SRT kits have nothing to do with the trigger. But confusion aside, I highly recommend installing an SRT Kit to greatly reduce the reset on your P6’s action and make it much easier to shoot. Any of the P-Series SRT kits will fit in a P6, including the P220 SRT Kit which is sold as a separate part number as the P226 / P229 kit.

I recommend the P220 SRT Kit if you can find one, since it also includes an updated decocker lever that prevents frame damage and fits the P6 just fine. Decide Whether to Modify your Feed RampAs mentioned previously, the feed ramp width and angle on P6 pistols prior to June 1989 is different than on the P225, which means it sometimes doesn’t feed large (124-grain) JHP rounds reliably. If you’re planning on shooting larger hollow-point rounds, I recommend either replacing the barrel with an OEM P225 barrel (which are now almost impossible to find) or sending your barrel to a gunsmith with P6 feed ramp modification experience. Get a Grip on your P6The final “must-have” when upgrading a SIG P6 is a set of modern grips. There’s certainly nothing wrong with the original plastic P225/P6 grips, especially if you like that classic look. Any aftermarket P225 (but not P225-A1) grip will fit a P6,.

But fitting a set of on a single-stack P6 makes it feel perfect to me. And they look as good as they feel. Hogue G10 checkered grips on a SIG P6 Try a Solid Guide RodI don’t consider a solid guide rod a “must have” upgrade, but I personally like them.

The P6, like most early SIGs, originally came with a hollow metal guide rod. The basic thinking behind a solid metal guide rod is that it slightly increases overall weight which slightly reduces recoil, as well as shifts a slight amount of additional weight to the front of the pistol to slightly reduce muzzle rise and/or slightly help you get back on target for follow-up shots.

The difference is slight and some shooters can’t tell any difference, while others swear by solid guide rods. I’m somewhere in the middle. I can tell a slight difference and have convinced myself I like it better.

They’re not expensive, so it’s easy to try them out to see if you prefer them, too. SIG P6 with stainless steel solid guide rodLike its trigger, the P225/P6’s guide rod isn’t shared with any other SIG pistol. And again, the P225-A1 isn’t the same as a classic P225 so a P225-A1 guide rod won’t fit.

I recommend, which is if you prefer that look. Other P6 ModificationsOf course, there are plenty of additional modifications you can make to your P6, just as there is with any gun. If you plan to use your P6 as an EDC, a decent holster and a set of quality night sights like (my personal fav) are fantastic. You could even install an updated take-down lever if you prefer that look (later P225s shipped from SIG with the updated takedown lever), though many love the P6 for its classic lines and prefer to keep the controls original. It’s your gun, so do with it what you want. You can also look to my for other upgrade ideas most of which also apply to a West German P6. But the P224 slide catch and decocker used on SIG Legion line pistols will not fit on a P225 or P6.

Stock Up on MagazinesWhile not actually a modification, while I have your attention I recommend grabbing a few extra P225/P6 magazines. Again, the P225-A1 magazines are totally different and won’t work with your P6. Only P225 or P6 magazines work on a true P225 or P6.

The majority of West German surplus P6 pistols came in a blue plastic box with two P6-marked magazines, but thousands of magazines were made and are still out there. SIG isn’t making any more of them, so check for them on eBay or GunBroker while they’re still easy to find. Also, keep in mind that friends don’t let friends buy ProMag. Stick with OEM mags for your P6.I have it on good authority that the folks at still have a number of surplus OEM P6 mags for sale. Ask for Patrick and tell him “Ferrari Steve” sent you, and you’ll get a great deal.
