Documented
U.S. Army Issued SIG Sauer M17 Semi- Automatic Pistol with Box - Serial no. TF005490, 9 mm Luger
cal., 4 3/4 inch long bbl., coyote brown/black finish, plastic grips. In January 2017 it was announced that SIG Sauer had won the
highly competitive U.S. Military Modular Handgun System (MHS) contract to replace the Beretta M9 as the standard U.S. military
sidearm, and later that year the U.S. Army announced the 101st and 82nd Airborne divisions were to be the first units to receive
the M17. Only 3,000 of these pistols were returned to SIG Sauer for sale on the commercial market. The M17 is a variant of the
SIG Sauer 320 modular pistol and integrates an ambidextrous thumb safety to the modular fire control unit. Features illuminated
night sights, optics mounting point on the slide, “+P” weight recoil spring, and coyote tan metal and polymer finish. A sticker
numbering the pistol “46” is adhered to the bottom of the frame ahead of the trigger guard. The grip unit is marked size “M.” The shipping
box is numbers matching and marked “UDM17-9-SURPLUS,” containing two extra magazines, a standard weight recoil spring, cable lock, numbers matching challenge coin and papers. An included Freedom of Information Act letter from the Department of Defense states this pistol was received by B Co., 96th Aviation Support Battalion, 101st Airborne Division in Fort Campbell, Kentucky, on December 17, 2017. On May 6, 2019, the pistol was turned in to the Logistics Readiness Center of Fort Campbell, Kentucky.
CONDITION: Excellent overall for an issued pistol, with 90% of the coyote brown finish retained with moderate edge wear, handling marks, and darkening. The sights and optic mount cover retain 85% of their black finish, with edge and holster wear. The polymer frame is also excellent, with a few scattered shallow dents and handling marks. Mechanically excellent.
Estimate: 3,500 - 5,000
