Description
Some firearms mark history. Others make it. The SIG Sauer P210 Legend Prototype (Serial Number V1174) belongs squarely in the latter category—a transitional masterpiece bridging Swiss precision with German innovation.
The P210 name is legendary for a reason: unrivaled accuracy, impeccable machining, and that unmistakable fit and finish that turned a military sidearm into a collector’s icon. With the Legend Prototype, German engineers set out to reimagine that heritage for a new era. Their goal wasn’t to replace the Swiss original, but to honor it—to refine it, modernize it, and make it even more enduring.
This prototype reveals how that vision took shape. The enlarged frame improves ergonomics without losing the P210’s signature balance. The PVD-coated controls and surfaces deliver exceptional protection from wear and corrosion while adding a subdued modern sheen. The redesigned safety mechanism—subtle but meaningful—prevents the telltale scratches that plagued earlier models, underscoring SIG’s commitment to detail at every level.
As a prototype, serial number V1174 sits in a minima lineage. It’s a rare look behind the curtain—a physical record of SIG Sauer’s developmental process. Collectors prize prototypes like this because they aren’t just production models; they’re stepping stones, blueprints, and bold experiments. Every line, marking, and refinement tells part of the story of how one of the world’s greatest handguns evolved.
Adding to its allure, this piece comes complete with its original factory box, full documentation, and an official SIG Sauer letter verifying its provenance and significance. That documentation transforms it from a collectible firearm into a museum-grade artifact—authenticated, traceable, and historically rich.
The P210 Legend Prototype V1174 is more than a gun; it’s a narrative in steel—a rare chance to hold the moment when history and innovation intersected. For serious collectors, it represents not just rarity, but legacy.
