SIG P210-1: The commercial version chambered in 9 mm Luger and. There are a number of SIG P210 model variations. It ships with a 50-meter (54.7 yd) test target typically showing a group of five to ten shots in a cluster under 5 cm (2 in) in diameter. This construction feature contributes to the unusually high accuracy for which the SIG P210 is known. This latter featured mimics the frame-to-receiver interface of its predecessor in Swiss military service, the Luger pistol, allowing for a very tight fit between the slide, barrel, and frame without compromising reliability. Its hammer action is built into a removable assembly for easy maintenance, after the fashion of the Tokarev TT-30 pistol, whereas its slide rides inside the frame rails, rather than outside as in the traditional Browning pattern. The slide and frame are machined from blocks of steel, which makes production rather costly compared to recent pistol designs, manufactured of pressings and welds. It has a 120 mm high quality barrel (150 mm in the 210-5 variant) and the pistol is very durable and reliable.
