Four versions of the XFive series allow users to choose the pistol that more closely matches their respective shooting disciplines. Entry, Classic, Match and Super Match models offer ever-increasing customizations and features.

"For years, the P226 X-Five and X-Six models have been the choice of the world's elite competitors," said Jeff Creamer, SIG Sauer Director of Product Management. "We've taken that legacy of accuracy and reliability and brought the modularity to help competitors tune their pistol to the demands of their sport."
