SIG Sauer has introduced an affordable option for plinkers, instructors and new shooters, the P250-22, a rimfire .22LR version of the modular P250

“The real benefit to the P250-22 lies in its ability to be converted to fire center-fire rounds, such as 9 mm, .40 or .357SIG,” said John Brasseur, Director of Product Development for SIG Sauer, Inc. “This allows newer shooters to work up to the more powerful cartridges, and is a great tool for introducing youth to the shooting sports.”

The P250-22’s serialized fire-control group, which is the same as on center-fire models, can be installed in a variety of grip modules. This versatility allows the P250-22 to be fit to any hand, and with the addition of an X-Change kit, can be converted to center-fire.

Full-size, compact and subcompact X-Change kits mean the P250-22 can be set up quickly and easily as a center-fire duty pistol, concealed-carry gun or backup piece. The smooth double-action only trigger offers a consistent, clean trigger press, which stays the same regardless of the caliber or configuration.

“The P250-22 is truly a ‘one-gun’ solution,” Brasseur said. “Thanks to the wide variety of caliber and grip module options, the P250-22 can meet any need and fit any hand.”

Offered in the Compact configuration, the P250-22 is now shipping to SIG Sauer dealers across the nation. For more information, please visit us at sigsauer.com.

The Drawbacks of Being a Numbers-Oriented Gun Guy
