I am not sure exactly what I have here as the SN# range designates this as 180MM HF configuration. All the SN# match-Slide, Frame, Bbl et al and mine also has the Swiss Shield on the top of the slide, which if I have researched correctly isn’t common on the 210-5.

This specimen appears to be in new condition as the internals are clean as if they just came off the factory floor.

It only came with 1 Magazine however and finding a spare has been futile to date. Anyone know of a mag source for these Swiss Pistols? Leads would be appreciated.

they can be found but they're prohibitively expensive (SIG P210 magazine Fitts all variants M49 P210-6 P47 9mm & 7.65 Luger - Pistol Magazines & Pistol Clips at GunBroker.com : 909543294).

what i've done is to purchase the new generation p210 magazine. I then changed out the p210 floor plate for a Sig p225/Sig p6 magazine floor plate. You will have to file just a hair of the rear of the plate to make it work with the heel release....this has worked well for me for quite a few years now.

hope this helps.

I found mags and parts. Not cheap but they never will be.

Isn't this -5 interesting? It has a heavy frame. But, it has a short 120mm barrel and a slide equipped with fixed sights. I don't believe I've ever seen a -5 configured like this.

Based on Michael Zeleny's information, this -5 would have been manufactured somewhere between 1987 and 1990. I need to review my copy of Vetter to see if I can find a -5 configured like this one.

Here is my -5. It has also has a heavy frame, but it has a 150mm barrel along with adjustable sights. Oh, it came in a plastic SIG plastic hard case, not a SIG blue cardboard box.

I haven’t seen any other -5 configured like the one I have either, and this -5 is more similar to the -6 I picked up recently, other than the heavy frame on the -5. I’ve searched the net for more info and haven’t found any info to date.

Note that the first 210-6 photographed is a NIB Specimen.

Check with Simpson Ltd Collectors Firearms in Galesburg Il for P210 magazines with the European mount profile. He deals in P210 surplus pistols and often has extra magazines. They may not be listed on his website, but he has drawers of accessories in the back...
