M18 Commemorative

[red_star]

Was surprised it made its way up here, but with a restricted barrel.
Would like to get info if it has the same barrel markings as M17 commemorative with cage code number (as pictured) or just plane jane sig p320 barrel...

'SIG SAUER' on one side and '9mm x 19' on the other. No cage code number.

Thanks for this info. So Sig just slapped a regular p320 barrel. Not surprised at all, as why Sig would make those commemorative barrels for just a handful M18s that will be shipped here.
Would have been nice if they had extra m17 comms barrel that could have been swapped for this.

Agreed, but the longer barrel that sticks out past the slide will likely put off the purist anyways, so not sure how much difference the lack of cage code makes.
Given the low production number, I'm actually surprised that any made it up to Canada.

Bullseye North had 9 for sale suddenly on Aug 26 I think it was. They went fast.

I believe the military recently switched from FDE controls to black controls, so the regular civilian version is now more accurate than the commemorative.

Correction:

The Bullseye North lot were not commerative M18’s.
