The SIG Sauer M17 9mm pistol delivers military-grade reliability in a striker-fired platform adopted by the U.S. Armed Forces. This coyote tan variant combines proven performance with enhanced corrosion resistance for demanding environments.
What Makes This Different
The M17 features SIG's proprietary striker-fired action with a smooth, consistent 6.5-pound trigger pull that outperforms standard polymer pistols. Unlike competitors, it includes ambidextrous controls and a removable trigger mechanism for simplified maintenance. The coyote tan Nitron finish provides superior wear resistance compared to standard black coatings, maintaining appearance through extended use.
Key Features
- Striker-fired action with 6.5 lb trigger pull and short reset
- 4.7-inch carbon steel barrel with Nitron coating for corrosion resistance
- Coyote tan polymer frame with textured grip panels
- Ambidextrous slide catch and magazine release
- Three 10-round magazines included with witness holes

Field testing demonstrates consistent 2.5-inch groups at 25 yards with quality ammunition. The M17 functions reliably in temperatures from -40°F to 140°F and passes military drop tests from 4 feet onto concrete. Salt spray testing confirms the coyote finish resists corrosion for over 1,000 hours, making it suitable for coastal environments and high-humidity conditions.
