In 1975 Sig-Sauer developed the P225 as a compact version of the 9mm P220 to meet the requirements of German police organizations. As part of the police reorganizations that followed the 1972 Black September terrorist attack on Israeli athletes at the Munich Olympics the West Germans set standards for police-issue handguns. Their criteria were: 9mm chambering, a magazine capacity of at least 8 rounds and dimensions just slightly smaller than the P220. The P220 in 9mm was shortened and dubbed the P225. The P225 was the first Sig-Sauer handgun with a hammer reset spring. Single action/double action with American style grips.
Come with two 8 round magazines and holster. Very good condition.
