As many of you know, Sig is releasing their .22LR Conversion Kits for the P220, P226, and P229, with the P226 available by end of this month. We have added them to the store in order to ensure all of those who want one get one from the first shipment, so hurry up and order so we can make sure yours is included!
SIG .22LR Conversion Kits |

Edward, this is great! I was just asking someone a few weeks ago if Sig makes (or is planning to make) a .22 conversion.
Regarding the 229 kits, will they be available for the .357/.40 platform as well as the 9mm platform? I haven't seen them on the SigArms site yet. Thanks! |
|
I believe these are the same kit regardless of which caliber 226 you have.
|
|
Correct. There's a 229 kit and a 226 kit, doesn't matter the caliber. The question yet to be answered is whether the 229 kit will work on a 228 or not. |
|
|
I have a 228 and would like to know if it will work me for as well.
|
|
Um... unless something changed these kits are not going to be available until the summer, with the 226 first and the other ones to follow in the fall and then winter.
I got this from a Sig Factory Rep, not merely internet conjecture. |
|
I'm on board when the 229 kits are available. How much will spare mags be?
|
|
|
|
|
Is there a release date for the 229 conversions? The only one available by the link is the 226. Also, I need a price for spare mags. I am writing up a proposal for a few conversion kits for my department and we carry the 229. Any info would be greatly appreciated.
|

Am I correct in assuming that I could have this .22lr conversion barrel threaded 1/2x28 much like I've had my Advantage Arms G19 barrel threaded (and a barrel extension added) for use with a suppressor?
ETA: I think the P226 platform would be a much better host than the mosquito for a .22lr suppressor. |
|
The P220 conversion kit was suppose to be ready in April 2008. It is now the beginning of May. No word yet on when the P220 kit should be ready or is it just vaporware?

Cool, I might get one for my 220. I can still reload 9mm pretty cheap for my 226's. |
|
Here's the image:

|
Initially, I wanted one of these kits to go with my 229. The price threw me a bit, I think I might end up getting a 22/45
|
|
That's what I'm waiting to see. |
|
|
Looks like the bore is concentric with the OD of the barrel, so a threaded adapter a la some of the other .22LR autos might be a possibility! |
|
|
Why do you think the P226 platform would be a better host than the Mosquito? |
|
|
They are now available on the Sig website. I ordered a kit for the P226 through AR15.com. AR15 is saying their delivery will be in June.
|
|
We were told end of May/beginning of June, so I figured I'd play it safe and quote beginning of June.
We'll start shipping pre-orders as soon as they come in though. |
|
Does anyone know if this will fit my P228 yet? I'd like to get one to practice with what I carry.
|
|
Hi all,
Will this fit the P226 SAS or work on the SAS? Thanks!!! |
|
Ok.
I talked to dave at Sig today. He told me that yes the Kit will work on the SAS and also they have not shipped any yet and his best guess will be mid July. He was just making a guess and I hope they come out sooner. |

Still waiting on info regarding spare mag pricing, mag capacity, and when the 229 kit will be available. Anyone here in the know?
|
|
It isnt a POS |

Top Gun Supply has the 226 10rd mags for 29.95. The 229 kit uses a 10rd mag as well and I am thinking it might be the same mag, not 100% sure. I have no idea on availability of the 229 kit or ETA.
|
|
Based on the theory that a 229 IS a 228, just with a milled slide instead of stamped, I'm gonna say I'm pretty positive the 229 kits will work on a 228.
|
|
This is true, Ken Lunde while at shotshow was told by sig reps that the 229 upper will also work on the p228 |
|
|
When he was there I asked for a 229 kit with a 226 barrel so I can thread it. I hope he listened.
|
|
Has anyone got a hold of a conversion kit yet, from anywhere?
|
|
They have the 10rd mags for the conversion?? I couldnt find them on the site ETA Nevermind, I found them The kits were in at the distributors last week so hopefully they will be hitting the dealers soon Patiently waiting |
