The Sig Sauer P229 Elite Compact pistol (brand part no. WE29R-9-BSE-RX) is a First Responder Firearm restricted to first responder purchase only, combining the features common to all Elite-series pistols with ergonomic one-piece grips. Sig Sauer builds on the P229’s out-of-the-box accuracy reputation by adding the Short Reset Trigger (SRT), which keeps the DA/SA action’s safety and smooth pull while shortening the reset for faster follow-up shots. A beavertail frame and front-strap checkering improve control, and the pistol ships with SIGLITE night sights and two magazines. Among first-responder-exclusive semi-auto handguns, this P229 Elite Compact is not available to the general public.
