P220 slide length barrel compatibility

[The Heretic]

Give me a little while and I will measure the std Nitron barrel, the std Carry barrel and the Tactical threaded barrels for a 227 (same length as 220 - got to dig it all out from the gun safe).

Measured across the top of the barrel from the rear of the barrel "hood" to the muzzle end (without threaded cap)

Tactical w/ threaded barrel: 5.13" - extends 0.75" beyond end of slide with plenty of gap between slide and start of threads

Nitron: 4.41"

Carry: 3.875"

I can't speak for the Carry slide on the 220, but I know that the std Nitron slide & Tactical slide are the same length as the .45 ACP 220. I would assume that the Carry slide is also.

I have no idea. I got it about 10 years ago from my wife's dad when he passed, and I never found paperwork on it.

That is a longer slide (by about 0.75") than the std slide. Is that a 10mm or a .45?

Long slides on the 220 are beyond my ken. You might ask on SIGTalk.com forum

Your dust cover is definitely longer than my P220 Elite. Your stock barrel has the same measurements as my threaded barrel. I can't find anything on there being a long slide version other than the 10mm.

I think the frame is the std length, but the slide is definitely longer than std.

I would bet he could get a std 220/227 slide for that frame.

If he has a box with model # on a label, that would help too.

Psh. He needs to buy another gun.

Who doesn't?

Why do you think I have three different 227s?

You're right, I called out the dust cover wrong, please forgive me.

The box says 220R5-45-TAS-SAO built 2008.

It appears that the pistol is a P220 Match SAO (Single Action Only), it has a safety instead of a decocker and adjustable sights.

That is about all I can find - the guys on SIGTalk.com would probably know more.

Looks like the Match and Super Match (I think mine is the Match) came stock with a 5" barrel. Fortunately the folks that sent me this one a while back are offering to issue a refund.
