Support plate, that little black plate starboard and part of the mag release.
Has anyone seen it done in nickel? The corporation (sig) told me that if I could find one they would deduct the cost from the nickel package upgrade I'm getting on the old girl. I've checked the usual sources with no luck so I thought maybe someone here might know? You would think the corp knows where they are.

Thanks

Thought I saw one in the classified section here recently. A member was selling a bunch of nickle parts and I thought I saw the plate in with the bunch. Can't remember who.

You know you are right. Trading nickel for black on a 239 - dont know if that works on the 220 or not, but I did pm the fella. Thanks for that heads up

The member is selling nickel parts for a P239 which would not work in your P220. However, the support plate that he is selling isn't from a P239 and looks be the standard plate for the P220/226/229.

The support plate I see in his picture should work on a P220.

P239 and P220 magazine releases...

...are not interchangeable.

Just took a look at my 239 and 220.

Well we'll see. This is the closest I have been to even one that might work! I went over all of this with Sig cs, what I was getting, ect...only to have them get the weapon then tell me they cannot find one. Not the first time I've experienced German parts made from unobtanium..

HERE is the P239 support plate.

HERE is the support plate for the P220, the same one as in SSP's picture.
