Description
The SIG Sauer P226 X-Five SAO Silber Prototype stands among the rarest and most refined pistols ever produced by the legendary SIG Sauer Mastershop. Featured in the official Mastershop Catalog and exhibited at IWA as part of the early Signature Line concept, this piece isn’t just another X-Five—it’s a blueprint of excellence, a tangible vision of what perfection looked like in the minds of SIG’s top engineers.
Built on the time-tested P226 platform, this single-action-only (SAO) prototype is chambered in 9mm Para and boasts a stunning satin silver (Silber) finish over a solid stainless-steel frame. It’s every bit as beautiful as it is functional. The finely checkered walnut grips, adorned with the SIG SAUER logo, offer both elegance and control, creating a balance that feels natural in the hand and intentional in design.
The 5-inch match barrel, flat match-grade trigger, and fully adjustable rear sight deliver the kind of precision only a Mastershop build can achieve. Every edge, surface, and tolerance was crafted by the same artisans responsible for SIG’s most exclusive models—right down to the custom slide engraving, marking its one-off prototype status within the Signature concept series.
It’s complete with its factory test target, manuals, accessories, and original case, preserving its authenticity and historical integrity. For collectors, this is the kind of pistol that defines a collection—rare, documented, and undeniably significant.
A genuine Mastershop prototype, conceived not for mass production but to set the bar for it.
