Ellos pueden causarse lesions
graves y la muerte. Evite que los
niños tengan accesso a las armas de
fuego guardándolas siepre con llave
y descargadas cuando no las esté
utilizando. Si usted tiene una arma
de fuego cargada en un lugar en que
un niño tiene accesso a ella y la usa
indebidamente, le pueden dar una
multa o enviarlo a la carcel.”
CONNECTICUT:
“UNLAWFUL STORAGE OF A LOADED FIREARM MAY RESULT IN
IMPRISONMENT OR FINE.”
FLORIDA:
“IT IS UNLAWFUL, AND PUNISHABLE BY IMPRISONMENT AND FINE, FOR ANY
ADULT TO STORE OR LEAVE A FIREARM IN ANY PLACE WITHIN THE REACH

MAINE:
“ENDANGERING THE WELFARE OF A CHILD IS A CRIME. IF YOU LEAVE A
FIREARM AND AMMUNITION WITHIN EASY ACCESS OF A CHILD, YOU MAY
BE SUBJECT TO FINE, IMPRISONMENT OR BOTH. KEEP FIREARMS AND
AMMUNITION SEPARATE. KEEP FIREARMS AND AMMUNITION LOCKED UP.
USE TRIGGER LOCKS.”
MARYLAND:
“WARNING: Children can operate firearms which may cause death or serious
injury. It is a crime to store or leave a loaded firearm in any location where
an individual knew or should have known that an unsupervised minor would
gain access to the firearm. Store your firearm responsibly!”
MASSACHUSETTS:
“WARNING FROM THE MASSACHUSETTS ATTORNEY GENERAL: This handgun
is not equipped with a device that fully blocks use by unauthorized users.
More than 200,000 firearms like this one are stolen from their owners
every year in the United States. In addition, there are more than a thousand
suicides each year by younger children and teenagers who get access to
firearms. Hundreds more die from accidental discharge. It is likely that many
more children sustain serious wounds, or inflict such wounds accidentally
on others. In order to limit the chance of such misuse, it is imperative
that you keep this weapon locked in a secure place and take other steps
necessary to limit the possibility of theft or accident. Failure to take
reasonable preventative steps may result in innocent lives being lost, and in
some circumstances may result in your liability for these deaths.”
“IT IS UNLAWFUL TO STORE OR KEEP A FIREARM, RIFLE, SHOTGUN OR
MACHINE GUN IN ANY PLACE UNLESS THAT WEAPON IS EQUIPPED WITH A
TAMPER RESISTANT SAFETY DEVICE OR IS STORED OR KEPT IN A SECURELY
LOCKED CONTAINER.”

NEW JERSEY:
“IT IS A CRIMINAL OFFENSE TO LEAVE A LOADED FIREARM WITHIN EASY
ACCESS OF A MINOR.”
NEW YORK CITY, NY:
“THE USE OF A LOCKING DEVICE OR SAFETY LOCK IS ONLY ONE ASPECT
OF RESPONSIBLE FIREARMS STORAGE. FOR INCREASED SAFETY, FIREARMS
SHOULD BE STORED UNLOADED AND LOCKED IN A LOCATION THAT IS BOTH
SEPARATE FROM THEIR AMMUNITION AND INACCESSIBLE TO CHILDREN AND
OTHER UNAUTHORIZED PERSONS.”
NORTH CAROLINA:
Any person who resides in the same premises as a minor, owns or
possesses a firearm, and stores or leaves the firearm (i) in a condition that
the firearm can be discharged and (ii) in a manner that the person knew
or should have known that an unsupervised minor would be able to gain

WARNING - LOCKING DEVICES
This firearm was originally sold with a keyoperated locking device. While it can help
provide secure storage for your unloaded
firearm, any locking device can fail. All
guns are designed to fire if they are
loaded and the trigger is pulled. Therefore,
never install the locking device inside the
trigger guard or in any way that makes it
possible to pull the trigger! Do not leave
the keys in the lock.
The ultimate responsibility for secure
storage of any firearm must depend
upon its owner and his or her individual
circumstances. Firearms should be stored
unloaded, in a secure location, separate
from their ammunition.
NEVER INSTALL THE
LOCKING DEVICE INSIDE
THE TRIGGER GUARD
To maximize effectiveness and reduce the chances of malfunction or
damage to a firearm, ALWAYS refer to the locking device’s manufacturer
directions for installation and removal of the device.

1.0 Safety Rules
The safety warnings in this manual are important. By understanding the
dangers inherent in the use of any firearm, and by taking the precautions
described herein, you can experience complete safety in the use of your
pistol. Failure to heed any of these warnings may result in serious injury to
you or others, as well as severe damage to the firearm or other property.
PISTOLS are classified as FIREARMS and are sold by SIG SAUER with the
specific understanding that we shall not be responsible in any manner
whatsoever for malfunctioning of the firearm, physical injury or property
damage resulting in whole or in part from:
• criminal or negligent discharge;
• improper or careless handling;
• unauthorized modifications; defective, improper, hand-loaded,
• or reloaded ammunition;
• corrosion;
• neglect; or
• other influences beyond our direct and immediate control.
This limitation applies regardless of whether liability is asserted on the

1.1 Protect Your Eyes and Ears
Always wear safety glasses that meet the requirements of American
National Standards Institute (ANSI) Z87.1 and ear plugs or “earmuff” type
protectors whenever you are shooting. Always make certain that persons
close to you are similarly protected. Unprotected eyes may be injured by
powder, gas, carbon residue, lubricant, metallic particles, or similar debris
that may emanate occasionally from any firearm in normal use. Without ear
protection, repeated exposure to shooting noise may lead to cumulative,
permanent hearing loss.
2.0 Mechanical Characteristics and Weapon
Theory
2.1 Weapon Description
2.1.1. General
The SIG SAUER P290™ pistol is a modern handgun incorporating the latest
technical advances in weapon design for military, law enforcement and
sporting use. The P290 is a mechanically locked, short recoil operated pistol
with semi-automatic reloading. The P290 uses a Double Action Only (DAO)
trigger system. Each time the trigger is pulled, the hammer cocks and
releases, causing the pistol to fire. Firing takes place with each pull of the
trigger until the magazine is empty. The slide remains open after the last
round has been fired from the magazine.
12
www.sigsauer.com
when it counts™
2.1.2 Principal Features
The double action only trigger ensures safe carrying of the weapon and
provides instant readiness when needed.
The automatic firing pin safety blocks the firing pin unless the trigger is pulled.
The hammer safety intercept notch prevents the hammer from contacting
the firing pin unless the trigger is pulled.
The disconnector prevents the hammer from falling when the slide is out of
battery (not fully closed).
The pistol can only be disassembled from the “slide open” position.
Distinctive high contrast sights and excellent ergonomics, ensure rapid
target acquisition and engagement, even under poor lighting conditions.
Extremely compact dimensions and lightweight materials, combined with
the powerful 9mm cartridge, provide an excellent platform for concealed
carry or personal protection.
The closed design of the pistol prevents dirt and other debris from entering
the pistol, and ensures proper function in harsh environmental conditions.
The P290 features replaceable grip panels, with optional grip panels providing
a variety of materials, colors and textures to personalize your pistol.
The P290 accommodates an optional integrated laser module, providing
quick target acquisition in a wide range of environmental conditions.

3.0 Ammunition
1. Use only high-quality, original, factory-manufactured ammunition. Do not
use cartridges that are dirty, wet, corroded, bent, or damaged. Do not oil
cartridges. Do not spray aerosol-type lubricants, preservatives, or cleaners
directly onto cartridges or where excess spray may flow into contact
with cartridges. Lubricant or other foreign matter on cartridges can cause
potentially dangerous ammunition malfunctions. Only use ammunition
of the caliber for which your firearm is chambered. The proper caliber is
permanently engraved on your firearm; never attempt to use ammunition of
any other caliber.
2. The use of reloaded, “remanufactured” hand-loaded, or other nonstandard ammunition voids all warranties. Reloading is a science and
improperly loaded ammunition can be extremely dangerous. Severe damage
to the firearm and serious injury to the shooter or to others may result.
Always use ammunition that complies with the industry performance
standards established by the Sporting Arms and Ammunition Manufacturers’
Institute, Inc. (SAAMI) of the United States or ammunition manufactured to
military specifications.
WARNING – AMMUNITION (CARTRIDGE)
NOTICE
SIG SAUER SPECIFICALLY DISCLAIMS RESPONSIBILITY FOR ANY DAMAGE
OR INJURY WHATSOEVER OCCURRING IN CONNECTION WITH, OR AS A
RESULT OF, THE USE IN ANY SIG SAUER FIREARM OF FAULTY, NONSTANDARD, “REMANUFACTURED” HAND-LOADED (RELOADED) AMMUNITION,
OR CARTRIDGES OTHER THAN THOSE FOR WHICH THE FIREARM WAS
ORIGINALLY CHAMBERED.
www.sigsauer.com
15
3. Firearms may be severely damaged and serious injury to the shooter or
to others may result from any condition causing excessive pressure inside
the chamber or barrel during firing. Excessive pressure can be caused by
obstructions in the barrel, propellant powder overloads, the use of incorrect
cartridges, or defectively assembled cartridges. In addition, the use of a
dirty, corroded, or damaged cartridge can lead to a burst cartridge case and
consequent damage to the firearm and personal injury from the sudden
escape of high-pressure propellant gas within the firearm’s mechanism.
4. Immediately stop shooting and check the barrel for a possible obstruction
whenever:
• You have difficulty in, or feel unusual resistance in, chambering a cartridge
• A cartridge misfires (does not go off)
• The mechanism fails to extract a fired cartridge case
• Unburned grains of propellant powder are discovered spilled in the
mechanism
• A shot sounds weak or abnormal. In such cases it is possible that a bullet
is lodged partway down the barrel. Firing a subsequent bullet into the
obstructed barrel can wreck the firearm and cause serious injury to the
shooter or to bystanders
5. Bullets can become lodged in the barrel:
• If the cartridge has been improperly loaded without propellant powder,
or if the powder fails to ignite (ignition of the cartridge primer alone will
push the bullet out of the cartridge case, but usually does not generate
sufficient energy to expel the bullet completely from the barrel).
• If the bullet is not properly seated in the cartridge case. When such a
cartridge is extracted from the chamber without being fired, the bullet
may be left behind in the bore at the point where the rifling begins.
Subsequent chambering of another cartridge may push the first bullet
further into the bore.
16
www.sigsauer.com
when it counts™
6. If there is any reason to suspect that a bullet is obstructing the barrel,
immediately unload the firearm and look through the bore. It is not sufficient
to merely look in the chamber. A bullet may be lodged some distance down
the barrel where it cannot easily be seen.
WARNING – LODGED BULLET
IF A BULLET IS IN THE BORE, DO NOT ATTEMPT TO SHOOT IT OUT BY USING
ANOTHER CARTRIDGE OR BY BLOWING IT OUT WITH A BLANK OR ONE
FROM WHICH THE BULLET HAS BEEN REMOVED. SUCH TECHNIQUES CAN
GENERATE EXCESSIVE PRESSURE, DAMAGE THE FIREARM, AND CAUSE
SERIOUS PERSONAL INJURY.
If the bullet can be removed with a cleaning rod, clean any unburned
powder grains from the bore, chamber, and mechanism before resuming
shooting. If the bullet cannot be dislodged by tapping it with a cleaning rod,
send the firearm to SIG SAUER.
7. Dirt, corrosion, or other foreign matter on a cartridge can impede
complete chambering and may cause the cartridge case to burst upon firing.
The same is true of cartridges that are damaged or deformed.
8. Do not oil cartridges, and be sure to wipe the chamber clean of any
oil or preservative before commencing to shoot. Oil interferes with the
friction between cartridge case and chamber wall that is necessary for safe
functioning, and subjects the firearm to stress similar to that imposed by
excessive pressure.
9. Use lubricants sparingly on the moving parts of your firearm. Avoid
excessive spraying of any aerosol gun care product, especially where it may
www.sigsauer.com
17
get on ammunition. All lubricants and aerosol spray lubricants, in particular,
can penetrate cartridge primers and cause misfires. Some highly penetrative
lubricants can also migrate inside cartridge cases and cause deterioration
of the propellant powder; on firing, the powder may not ignite. If only the
primer ignites, there is danger that the bullet may become lodged in the
barrel.

WARNING - AMMUNITION
Death, serious injury, and damage can result
from the use of wrong ammunition, bore
obstructions, powder overloads, or incorrect
cartridge components. Always wear shooting
glasses and hearing protectors.
IMPROPER AMMUNITION DESTROYS GUNS
WARNING - LEAD EXPOSURE
Discharging firearms in poorly ventilated
areas, cleaning firearms, or handling
ammunition may result in exposure to lead
and other substances known to the state of
California to cause birth defects, reproductive
harm, and other serious physical injury.
Maintain adequate ventilation at all times.
Wash hands thoroughly after exposure.
SHOOTING OR CLEANING GUNS MAY
EXPOSE YOU TO LEAD

Step 3
Always make sure the muzzle is pointed in a safe direction! Never attempt to
load or unload any firearm inside a vehicle,building, or other confined space
(except a properly constructed shooting range). Enclosed areas frequently
offer no completely safe direction to point the firearm; if an accidental
discharge occurs, there is great risk of bodily injury or property damage.
Before loading, always clean all grease and oil from the bore and chamber,
and check to be certain that no obstruction is in the barrel. Any foreign matter
in the barrel could result in a bulged or burst barrel or other damage to the
firearm, and could cause serious injury to the shooter or to others.

5.0 Firing
WARNING – TRIGGER
DO NOT TOUCH THE TRIGGER UNTIL YOU ARE ACTUALLY READY
TO FIRE THE PISTOL.
Keep the muzzle pointed in a safe direction and your finger away from the
trigger when cocking any firearm.
Never fire any firearm with your finger, hand, face, or other part of your body
over or adjacent to the ejection port, or in any position where you may be
struck by reciprocating movement of the breech. Both the ejection of empty
cartridge cases and the movement of the breech are part of the normal
operating cycle of firearms, and pose no safety hazard to the shooter if the
firearm is held in a normal grip and fired at arm’s length.
Never allow other persons to stand beside you where they might be struck
by an ejected cartridge case. The case is hot, and may be ejected with
sufficient force to cause a burn, cut, or other injury. Wear safety glasses
to protect eyes. Make certain there is a clear, unobstructed path for safe
ejection of the fired case. Remember, the case may bounce off a hard object
nearby and strike you or someone else.

when it counts™
WARNING – MALFUNCTION
If, while shooting, your firearm develops a mechanical
malfunction or binding, or “spits” powder/gas, or if a cartridge
primer is punctured, or a cartridge case is bulged or ruptured, or
if the report on firing does not sound quite right, STOP SHOOTING
IMMEDIATELY! It may be dangerous to continue. UNLOAD THE
FIREARM – DO NOT try “one more shot.” Take the firearm and the
ammunition to a gunsmith for examination.

5.1 Clearing a Jam
While shooting any firearm, an unfired cartridge or fired cartridge case may
occasionally become jammed between the slide and the barrel. WHILE KEEPING THE MUZZLE POINTED IN A SAFE DIRECTION, clear the jam as follows:
1. Remove the magazine, then
2. Pull back the slide and lock it to the rear by pushing up the slide catch lever.
3. The jammed cartridge or case now can be removed by shaking it out or
by picking it out.
WARNING – HANDLING
The slide opens and shuts quickly while
firing. Keep face and hands away from it. Hot
brass and powder gas is ejected quickly and
can burn you. Always wear safety glasses
and hearing protectors.

7.0 Procedures in Case of Malfunction (“Jam”)
Follow the malfunction mitigation procedures if:
• You notice that a cartridge is difficult to chamber
• A cartridge does not go off
• The mechanism fails to extract a fired cartridge case
• You discover unburned grains of propellant powder spilled in the mechanism
• A shot sounds or feels weak or abnormal
WARNING – JAM
LIVE ROUND JAM MAY NOT EJECT.
Firearms work reliably if properly maintained. If there is a malfunction during
firing:
1. Keep the pistol pointed in a safe direction with your finger off the trigger.
2. Remove and secure the magazine.
3. Move the slide rearward and forward to clear any cartridge case in or
near the chamber. Visually and manually inspect the chamber.
4. If you suspect that a bullet is lodged in the bore, field strip your pistol and
check to see if the barrel is blocked. If there is a bullet lodged in the bore,
return the pistol to SIG SAUER (see section 11.3 “Shipping Firearms for Repair”).
WARNING – JAM
IF A BULLET IS IN THE BORE, DO NOT ATTEMPT TO SHOOT IT OUT BY USING ANOTHER CARTRIDGE, OR BY BLOWING IT OUT WITH A BLANK OR A CARTRIDGE FROM

WARNING – JAMS
If your pistol stops firing with a live round in the chamber of a hot barrel (a
misfire or jam), remove the round immediately. If you cannot remove the
round within 10 seconds, remove the magazine and wait at least 15 minutes
with the pistol pointing in a safe direction. This way, neither the user nor any
other person would be injured by the possibility of a round
“cooking-off” (a round detonating due to the heat of the barrel). Keep your
face away from the ejection port while clearing a hot chamber.
7.2 Minimizing Malfunctions (“Jams”)
Malfunctions can largely be avoided by cleaning the pistol (see section 8.3
“Cleaning the Pistol”).
• After each firing session
• Whenever a buildup of firing residue is suspected
• Whenever the pistol is exposed to extreme environmental conditions (rain,
snow, freezing temperatures, etc.)

The P290 pistol is designed to allow adjustments that enhance the operation
of the firearm.. The magazine catch may be repositioned to either side
based on shooter preference. The frame features removable grip panels that
can be changed by the user. Optional grip panels are available in a variety

9.0 Sights
9.1 General Information
The SIG SAUER pistol is equipped with drift adjustable fixed sights which
have proven their worth under severe conditions. The sights consist of a
rear sight and a front sight blade, designed and dimensioned to ensure rapid
target acquisition even when visibility is poor.
WARNING – SIGHT ADJUSTMENT
Sight corrections should only be performed by someone with the necessary
knowledge – the pistol could become damaged.
9.2 Windage (Left/Right) Adjustment
Change windage by moving the rear sight either to the left or right in its
dovetail. When you do this, follow the rear sight rule: Move the rear sight in
the direction you want the group to go. Moving the rear sight 0.020” in the
dovetail changes the point of
impact by approximately 3” at
25 yards.
Impact left of
point of aim
www.sigsauer.com
Impact low of
point of aim
55
9.3 Elevation (Up/Down) Adjustment
There are different height combinations available for
the front and rear sights. The sights are numbered
according to their height. You can change elevation
by changing either the rear or front sight. It’s easier if
you change the rear sight first.
Each rear sight change will move the impact of the
bullet approximately 2” at 25 yards.
Each front sight change will move the impact of the
bullet approximately 1” at 25 yards.
Impact low of
point of aim
When changing sights, remember this rule: NUMBERS UP, GROUPS UP;
NUMBERS DOWN, GROUPS DOWN. This is true for both front & rear sights.
WARNING – SIGHT ADJUSTMENT
Sight corrections should ONLY be performed on
an unloaded firearm. Manipulating the sights on
a loaded firearm could result in unintentional
discharge, causing injury or death. Visually and
physically confirm the pistol is unloaded before
making sight adjustments.
DO NOT ADJUST THE SIGHTS

unloaded for your safety and for the safety of others. When storing your
firearm, keep it separated from ammunition, under lock and key if possible,
and out of the reach of children and other inexperienced or unauthorized
persons.
WARNING – STORAGE
Never place or store any firearm in such
a manner that it may be dislodged.
Firearms should always be stored
securely and unloaded, away from
children and other unauthorized users.

11.0 Service and Parts Policy
11.1 Parts Policy
Our Service Department maintains a full complement of replacement parts.
Even though most gunsmiths have the knowledge, training, and the ability
to make necessary repairs to your firearm, the skill and workmanship of any
particular gunsmith is totally beyond our control.
Should your firearm ever require service, we strongly recommend that you
return it to SIG SAUER (see section 11.3 “Shipping Firearms for Repair”). A
firearm is a precision instrument and some replacement parts will require
individual fitting to ensure correct operation. A wrong part, improper fitting, or
incorrect mechanical adjustment may result in an unsafe condition or dangerous malfunction, damage to the firearm, or cause possible serious injury to the
shooter or others.
IF ANY PART IS ORDERED WITHOUT RETURNING THE FIREARM TO SIG SAUER,
the customer bears full responsibility for ensuring that the part supplied is
correct for their particular firearm and is properly installed and fitted by a
qualified gunsmith.
SIG SAUER CANNOT BE RESPONSIBLE FOR THE FUNCTIONING OF ANY FIREARM IN WHICH REPLACEMENT PARTS ARE INSTALLED BY OTHERS.
58

WARNING – PARTS PURCHASERS
It is the purchaser’s responsibility to be absolutely certain
that any parts ordered from the factory are correctly fitted
and installed. Firearms are complicated mechanisms and
IMPROPER FITTING OF PARTS MAY RESULT IN A DANGEROUS MALFUNCTION, DAMAGE TO THE FIREARM, AND
SERIOUS INJURY TO THE SHOOTER AND OTHER PERSONS. The purchaser and
installer of parts must accept full responsibility for the correct adjustment
and functioning of the firearm after such installation. PARTS MUST FIT
CORRECTLY

11.3 Shipping Firearms for Repair
In the event you need to return your firearm to the SIG SAUER Service
Department, here’s what to do:
1. First contact Customer Service at (603) 772-2302 for an RMA number,
which will allow SIG SAUER to track the status of your return from its receipt
at SIG SAUER through its return to you. Please do not send your firearm until
you obtain an RMA number.
2. Make sure that the chamber and magazine(s) are unloaded and that no
ammunition is included with your returned firearm.
3. Package the firearm securely to prevent damage. Enclose a letter that includes your name, street address, daytime phone number, model and serial
number, and a detailed description of the problem you have experienced
or the work you want performed. With the exception of extra magazines, do
not include any other accessories such as scopes or mounts.
4. Generally, an individual may ship firearms to the manufacturer for repair
or service. Some states and localities, however, prohibit this. If you live in
such an area, the firearms must be shipped by and returned to a federally
licensed firearms dealer.
5. Federal law prohibits persons who do not possess a Federal Firearms
License from shipping a firearm via the U.S. Postal Service. (Note: any shipment of firearms outside U.S. borders is subject to the export laws of the
United States and to the valid laws of the specific country, which you must
strictly follow; prior to exporting any firearm you should seek legal counsel.)

THE BASIC RULES OF SAFE FIREARMS HANDLING
1. ALWAYS treat every gun as if it were loaded.
2. ALWAYS be sure the barrel is clear of any obstruction.
3. ALWAYS be sure of your backstop, what lies beyond, and the safety of
bystanders before you shoot.
4. ALWAYS use clean, dry, original factory-made ammunition of the proper
type and caliber for your gun.
5. ALWAYS wear ear protection and safety glasses when shooting.
6. ALWAYS carry your gun so that you can control the direction of the
muzzle if you fall or stumble.
7. NEVER shoot at a flat surface or water.
8. DO NOT leave an unattended gun loaded. Guns and ammunition should be
stored separately, locked if possible, beyond the reach of children, careless
adults, and unauthorized users.
9. NEVER allow your firearm to be used by anyone who has not read and
understood this operator’s manual.
10. DO NOT point any gun, loaded or unloaded, at any undesired target.
11. NEVER fire your rifle near an animal unless it is trained to accept the
noise: an animal’s startled reaction could injure it or cause an accident.
12. NEVER drink alcoholic beverages or take drugs before or during shooting, as your vision and judgment could be seriously impaired, making your
gun handling unsafe.
