Extremely Rare Swiss Sig AG P210 700 Year Commemorative Grips

SIG P210 700 Year Swiss Confederation Commemorative Grips — Extremely Rare

So you own a SIG P210 and want the exact grips from the most significant Swiss commemorative pistol ever produced. These are it. Smooth grips from the SIG P210 manufactured in 1991 to celebrate the 700th anniversary of the Swiss Confederation, featuring the Swiss herald  Confoederatio Helvetica. The earliest production grips are made of Galalith — a historic material derived from casein, a protein found in cow’s milk — one of the first synthetic materials ever produced, dating to the 1890s. No firearms transfer required for the grips. Ships directly to UK Section 5 holders and licensed European collectors.

These  Extremely Rare Swiss Sig AG P210 700 Year Commemorative Grips   are not reproduction grips. First, of the limited run of this commemorative pistol, only the first few hundred had Galalith grips — due to the increased difficulty and labour involved, later grips were made of wood covered with white lacquer.

Available at eurogunandpartshub.com — for Section 5 licensed holders in the UK and licensed P210 collectors across Europe.

These grips are sold to Section 5 licensed holders in the UK and equivalent licensed European collectors who already own a SIG P210. Proof of appropriate licensing is required before purchase where applicable.

Do These Extremely Rare Swiss Sig AG P210 700 Year Commemorative Grips Require Any Transfer Documentation?

No — grip panels are accessories, not serialised components. So the SIG P210 grips themselves are not a firearm or serialised component under UK or European law. Therefore, they ship directly without RFD transfer or firearms documentation. However, your SIG P210 pistol — the serialised component — must already be legally held under Section 5 authority in the UK or equivalent European licensing. Therefore, confirm your P210’s legal status before ordering.

What Is Galalith and Why Does It Matter for Collectors?

Galalith is one of the first plastic and synthetic materials known to man, discovered in the 1890s. It was manufactured by the interaction of casein and formaldehyde — the commercial name derived from the Greek words gala (milk) and lithos (stone). It was used for manufacturing clothing buttons, combs, and costume jewellery. So SIG chose Galalith for the earliest production commemorative grips as an authentically historic material  a deliberate nod to the craftsmanship traditions of the early 20th century. Also, only the first few hundred commemorative pistols received Galalith grips before production switched to lacquered wood. Therefore, verifying which material your specific grips are — Galalith or lacquered wood — matters significantly for collector value and historical accuracy.

What Are the Exact Markings on These Extremely Rare Swiss Sig AG P210 700 Year Commemorative Grips?

White grips fitted with Swiss cross inlays, no visible screw heads. So the Swiss cross — white cross on red shield — is inlaid into each grip panel as the primary decorative element. Also, the grips carry the Swiss herald, completing the commemorative identity of what is arguably the most desirable of all SIG’s commemorative editions. Therefore, these grips are immediately identifiable as belonging to the 700th Anniversary series and carry genuine provenance from one of Switzerland’s most significant national commemorations.

What Is the Historical Significance of 1291–1991?

The foundation of the Swiss Confederation — 700 years of Swiss national identity. So in 1291, the three original Swiss cantons — Uri, Schwyz, and Unterwalden — signed the Federal Charter establishing the confederation that became modern Switzerland. Also, the Extremely Rare Swiss Sig AG P210 700 Year Commemorative Grips Anniversary edition was manufactured in 1991 to mark exactly 700 years of unbroken Swiss national identity  a milestone that SIG, as one of Switzerland’s most prestigious arms manufacturers, was uniquely positioned to commemorate. Therefore, owning these grips connects directly to that history  a physical link between Swiss precision engineering and 700 years of national heritage.
