SIG Sauer M17 Pistol

Selected by the U.S. military in January 2017 as the winner of the Modular Handgun System (MHS) competition to replace the Beretta M9 series, the M17 is a variant of SIG Sauer's P320 line of striker-fired, semi-automatic pistols. This pistol is one of many M17s that were issued out to U.S. Army in late 2017, with only 3,000 later returned to SIG Sauer and later made available for sale on the commercial market. Features illuminated night sights, optics mounting point on the slide, and extra weight recoil spring. The grip unit is marked size "M". Includes the original box dated "23-DEC-2019" identifying the pistol as "UDM17-9-SURPLUS" along with two extra magazines, an extra recoil spring assembly, a "M17" marked user's manual, an action lock. Also included is a Memorandum for Record from Headquarters, 1st Infantry Division and Fort Riley, Kansas, dated February 19, 2019, identifying the pistol by serial number as having entered service on December 7, 2017, issued to Charlie Company, 2nd Battalion, 327th Infantry Regiment, 101st Airborne Division at Fort Campbell, Kentucky, and left service on December 11, 2019.

Condition: Very fine as a U.S. Army M17 service pistol issued to and carried by a paratrooper of the 327th Infantry Regiment, 101st Airborne Division, retaining most of the original coyote PVD finish with darkening on the left side of the slide, light holster pattern edge wear, and scattered light handling marks. The grip module is fine with scattered light holster pattern slide scrapes and attractive scuffing on the textured grip hinting at the use it endured. Mechanically excellent. The box is very fine.
