Congratulations, that's a beauty! Nice score! 👍 👍 One question, is the pin that holds the trigger have the single slot like a flat head screw or is it serrated with multiple cuts? I can't see in the pic. Thanks.

Good question. I believe it's serrated, but I only have the pics at this point, won't have the pistol in hand for another week or so.

Okay, I ask because i have one 220 with the serrations rather than the single slot and it's just a little trickier to manipulate it to correctly get the block in. Not that big a deal, it's just the only classic I have that way and I'm not mechanically inclined enough work it with ease as I can with the single slot version.

P220's have the serrated trigger pin.

Geez, you are right - I thought I had one of each, but they are both serrated. And I thought I was sharing wisdom, not ignorance. Thanks for straightening me out, but I have to wonder why they have it different. I haven't found the key to manipulating it to have the block slide in as easily as the other single slot version.

The online photos weren't great, so I wondered if I was taking a leap of faith here. Just received the P220, and to say that it exceeds my expectations would be an understatement. Even my FFL said he "thought it was a brand new gun." Of course, it isn't a new gun - there is some visible wear on the barrel shroud, and a few other very tiny signs of wear if you're looking closely, but overall, this is about as clean as I could hope for from a 1995 P220 in excellent condition. Almost too nice to shoot, but I don't believe in safe queens...
