John, that's what I thought as well.

It seems the break-up of SIG into several divisions, the subsequent further dividing of the smaller firearms division, etc... left preciously little of the old gun branch intact. It's basically SwissArms marketing the rifles and SigSauer in Germany doing the pistol business, but nothing before the 220 series.

The Swiss gov't arsenal perished several years ago, so not much luck their either.
Basically, a lot of SIG P210 owners are in for a nasty surprise when their 'not too cheap' pistols require spares or repairs.

It's a market waiting to be exploited by a good gun smith.
