The SIG Pro is a series of semi-automatic pistols manufactured by SIG Sauer in Exeter, New Hampshire.[8][9] It became the first polymer-frame handgun from SIG Sauer and one of the first pistols to feature a built-in universal accessory rail and interchangeable grips.[10]: 78  Offerings in the series are chambered in .40 S&W, .357 SIG, or 9×19mm Parabellum. As of March 2020, only the SP 2022 variant is still listed on the SIG Sauer website.[11] The SIG Pro was marketed as a lightweight[12] and compact alternative to the "legacy" SIG Sauer handguns in an increasingly competitive and budget-oriented law enforcement market.
