Description
The SIG Sauer P226 X-Five Supermatch Skeleton Black represents the pinnacle of SIG Sauer’s competition-bred engineering, executed with a level of refinement that places it firmly in the realm of elite collector pistols. Built on the renowned X-Five platform and chambered in 9mm, this Supermatch configuration blends mechanical precision with striking visual character.
Finished in a deep black treatment, the pistol is immediately defined by its skeletonized slide architecture, featuring aggressive forward and rear serrations combined with precision-cut lightening windows. These design elements are not merely aesthetic; they reflect the Supermatch lineage’s obsession with balance, recoil control, and fast, repeatable performance. The sculpted slide transitions seamlessly into a heavy, competition-grade frame that delivers exceptional stability and a planted shooting feel.
The ergonomics are unmistakably X-Series. The extended beavertail, undercut trigger guard, and expertly contoured grip geometry work together to create a natural point of aim. The pistol is fitted with textured X-Series grips, offering excellent traction while maintaining a refined, modern appearance. Subtle detailing throughout the frame and controls underscores the hand-finished nature of this model.
At the heart of the Supermatch is a single-action trigger tuned for precision, providing a clean, consistent break that reflects its competition heritage. Every major component is matching, reinforcing the integrity of the build and the attention to detail expected from a flagship X-Five variant.
This X-Five Supermatch Skeleton Black is more than a high-performance pistol; it is a statement piece from a period when SIG Sauer pushed the boundaries of what a factory competition handgun could be. For the serious collector or enthusiast of European precision pistols, it stands as a compelling example of form, function, and uncompromising execution.
