So anyways, I once fired a .45ACP SIG 220 about 10-11 years ago, and I was VERY impressed with its accuracy and handling characteristics, so I've had a hankering to get one ever since. I just now came across an older-generation SIG 220 with the pointy(not rounded) hammer spur, marked "Herndon, VA" instead of "Exeter, NH" like current guns. This gun looks to be a typical "police turn-in" - the mag-well opening has plenty of wear from magazines being constantly inserted/dropped, and there's a little holster wear on the frame and slide, but the frame ramp and barrel ramp look absolutely cherry, with no marks or wear that I can discern. The DA trigger is smooth but stiff, and the SA trigger is C-R-I-S-P.
Assuming I jump on this gun and make it my very own, what do I need to know about older SIGs, and should I have anything done to it(and by who)? Should I send it back to SIG for new lockwork, K-Kote refinishing and SIGLite night sights? Or would the work be done faster/cheaper/better by someone like Teddy Jacobsen(Actions by "T")?
Thanks in advance!
