Bryant Ridge's Analysis:
The SIG Sauer is a full-sized service pistol manufactured by SIG Sauer. This model is available in four different types of ammunition: 9×19mm Parabellum, .40 S&W, .357 SIG, or .22 Long Rifle. It operates in the same way as the SIG Sauer P220, but it is designed to use higher capacity, double-stack magazines instead of the single-stack magazines used in the P220. The P226 itself has spawned further sub-variants; the P228 and P229 are both compact versions of the double stack P226 design, while the P224 is a subcompact variant. The SIG Sauer P226 and its variants are in service with numerous law enforcement and military organizations worldwide.
The P228 is a smaller version of the P226 and is currently used by various law enforcement agencies and the United States Armed Forces, where it goes by the name M11. This pistol features a shorter slide and barrel than the P226. Unlike the P226, the P228 is only available in 9×19mm Parabellum with a 13-round magazine; however, it can also accommodate P226 15- or 20-round magazines. Additionally, the P228 can be fitted with aftermarket magazines that extend its capacity to 15 rounds.
To distinguish between the two documents, you can observe the curved trigger guard of the first one, while the second document has a slightly hooked trigger guard. Moreover, the barrel and slide lengths of the first document are shorter than the second one's (99 mm barrel length and corresponding shorter slide). When placed side by side, the first document also appears 15 mm shorter than the second. Although the second document has a larger capacity magazine, it can still be used in the first document, but it will extend from the base of the grip. Civilian sales of the first document were stopped when the 9mm version (document number 3) was introduced. However, a new version of the first document called the P228R, has recently been reintroduced in limited quantities for civilians, featuring an accessory rail and a hooked trigger guard.
