A P228R....
...yep, a factory-railed P228, all-German model. Was at a LGS/Range and did some browsing...something caught my eye. Looked like an older stamped-steel compact slide, but then on a railed/hooked triggerguard frame. At first I thought it was a franken-Sig (P229R frame and P228 slide), but then I remembered hearing about these. And sure enough it said on the original blue box "P228R-9". And for what seemed a pretty good price.
Not into the railed frame, but the rarity of the gun is tickling my Sig bone. Feel like I want to jump on it before someone else does.
