Sig Sauer will soon stop production of their Sig P226 Navy and will be replacing it with their new P226 MK25 pistol. The new Sig P226 MK25 is pretty much identical to the sidearm currently used by the U.S. Navy SEALs, right down to the anchor engraving. The new MK25 chambered in 9mm is expected to run $100 more than the current P226 Navy for a total of $1,100. The new Sig 225 MK25 features 2 piece grips, night sights and a 1913 picatinny rail and phosphate coated internal parts.

Damn she’s a beauty!
Damn, i just picked up a 226
It’s definitely a beauty, but what is the difference between the original and new other than the tag?
Is that a barcode on the slide in the third photo?
Yeah it is, looks like it’s removable however. Probably for logistical use.
Just bought one and it’s everything a P226 should be. Accuracy is better than most recreational shooters are capable of utilizing to full potential and after the usual “break in” period it functions flawlessly. It also comes with a certificate of authenticity if that kind of thing floats your boat.
