About This Firearm
The Sig Sauer P220 Hunter is a camouflaged single-action 10mm built for hunting. It is no longer made, so it's a used buy. Its frame and slide are stainless steel finished in Kryptek Highlander camouflage, and the sights adjust, so a heavy hunting load can be zeroed.
Two steel eight-round magazines came with it, and the grips are Hogue Extreme G10, cut deep enough to hold through a glove. The slide has no optic cut, so adding a dot means cutting a camouflaged slide and refinishing it afterwards. The accessory rail is Sig's own profile and not a 1913 Picatinny section, so a modern light has to be checked for fit. At 1.5 inches wide, 8.6 inches long and 39.4 oz, this is a belt or chest-rig pistol.
On the shelves alongside it, the Kimber Camp Guard 10 is a hunting 1911, 1.4 oz lighter at 38.0 oz with rosewood panels, tritium night sights and an MSRP of $1,476. The Glock G40 Gen4 MOS goes the other way with a 6.02-inch barrel, 15 rounds, a factory optic cut and 35.45 oz, which is 3.95 oz less than this gun carries.

Strengths & Limitations
- Both magazines that came with it were steel eight-rounders, so a used gun with its original pair is a complete package.
- The Hogue Extreme G10 panels are aggressive enough to hold a wet or gloved hand, which checkered wood on a hunting pistol does not.
- The stainless under the camouflage means a worn patch at the muzzle shows stainless steel, not blued carbon steel.
- Sig's rail profile is not a 1913 section, so a light built for a service pistol may not seat on it.
- With no optic cut, a dot costs slide milling plus the refinishing needed to blend the camouflage around the cut.
- It is a used buy, so the magazine count, the wear on the camouflage and whether the adjustable rear sight still holds a setting all come down to the individual gun.

Frequently Asked Questions
How was the P220 Hunter different from a standard P220?
It was the hunting configuration, with a single-action-only trigger, adjustable sights and a camouflage finish over stainless, on the same frame as the rest of the P220 line.
Does it have a decocker?
No. The trigger is single action with an ambidextrous thumb safety, so the pistol carries cocked and locked, or hammer down on an empty chamber.
What is Kryptek Highlander?
A camouflage pattern of angular facets in browns and grays. On this pistol it covers both the frame and the slide.
What should a used buyer look at?
Whether both original steel magazines are with the gun, how far the camouflage has worn at the muzzle and the holster contact points, and whether the rear sight still holds its windage and elevation setting.
