Description
The genuine SIG SAUER OEM factory firing pin retaining pin (also known as the Firing Pin Positioning Pin or FPPP) is a critical cross-pin designed to securely capture and lock the firing pin and its return spring inside the slide channel. On high-performance match platforms like the P226 X-Five, this roll/coiled pin endures relentless mechanical shock and heavy recoil impulses. To maintain strict structural safety and drop-safety specs, factory armorer guidelines dictate that this pin is a single-use component—it should always be replaced with a fresh one whenever the slide is completely stripped for firing pin cleaning.
- Genuine SIG SAUER Factory OEM Part: Engineered to absolute, precise factory tolerances for a perfect flush fit inside the slide.
- Heavy-Duty Construction: Cut from premium-grade hardened steel to resist shearing, bending, or stretching under live fire.
- Gunsmithing Recommendation: Best driven out from right to left using a dedicated roll-pin punch, and reinstalled from left to right.
Compatibility:
- Fits Models: SIG SAUER P226 X-Five series (including legacy Classic, Allround, modern X-Series, and new X-Five Legion models) as well as standard P220, P226, and P229 slides.
