My non existent P220
It seems that I'm never satisfied with waiting for manufacturers to make a variation of a model that seems common sense to me. (Yoohoo, Ruger)
Case in point the SIG P220. When the P220 Diamond Plate was introduced it seemed natural to me that it should've had a stainless frame. Not only did SIG not make one, they went and discontinued the model, sheese can't a guy get a break? That's what led me to swap the top ends between an alloy Diamond Plate and one of my stainless P220's. Granted the original Diamond Plate seemed a little gaudy but being all stainless it helps tone it down. I'll eventually trade or sell the factory aluminum grips for two sets of Hogue black and gray G10's with Piranha checkering. I've already ordered hex head grip screws.

I haven't shot it yet, as I was waiting for the second Diamond Plate to arrive. It did yesterday morning and I couldn't help myself.

I am not a fan of how Sig's look, but I love the diamond plate.

At first I didn't think it would be cost effective, considering that it took four P220's to make a pair of all stainless Diamond Plates, but it all worked out. I was able to find buyers for the alloy P220R's before I began my conversion. That pair ended up being two tone P220R's with stainless top ends.
