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.”

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.

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:
• other influences beyond our direct and immediate control.
This limitation applies regardless of whether liability is asserted on the basis
of contract, negligence, or strict liability (including any failure to warn). Under
no circumstance shall SIG SAUER, Inc. be liable for incidental or consequential
damages, such as loss of use of property, commercial loss, and loss of earnings
or profits.
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.
Note: Refer to section 13 for a detailed parts list and diagram.

2.2 Mechanical Characteristics and Weapon
Theory
2.3 Weapon Description
2.3.1 General
SIG SAUER pistols are modern handguns complying with the latest technical
advances in weapon design for military, police and sporting use. They operate on
the principle of the mechanically locked, recoil-operated pistol with semi-automatic
reloading
2.3.2 Principal Features
The distinctive contrast sights in conjunction with the ergonomically favorable grip
design permit rapid, precision target acquisition and firing.
Exchangeable grip plates of different sizes allow for an optimum adaptation of the
weapon to the hand of the user.
The magazine catch can simply be repositioned from left-hand to right-hand
operation.
A Picatinny rail is integrated into the frame such that tactical additional equipment
can be attached.
The enclosed design prevents the penetration of dirt inside the weapon.
The SP 2022 pistol is available as double action/single action (DA/SA) or as double
action only

2.4 SP2022 M Manual Safety Model
W
WARNING – SAFETY
Uncontrolled discharge of shot May lead to death or severe injuries
• Never rely on safety mechanisms. They are never a substitute for careful and
correct handling of the pistol.
• When the red dot is visible at the manual safety lock the pistol is ready to fire.
2.5 Manual Safety Lock
The manual safety lock works irrespective of whether the hammer is cocked
or at rest. The function of the decocking lever is not affected by the position of
the manual safety lock. The slide can also be operated (for loading or ejecting
cartridges).
In DAO mode (hammer at rest) the enabled manual safety lock means that the
hammer can be fully cocked (manually or by pulling the trigger).
In SA mode (hammer cocked) the enabled manual safety lock means that the
hammer can be released by pulling the trigger.
www.sigsauer.com
15
PISTOL LOCKED PISTOL READY TO FIRE
Enabling the manual safety lock:
1. Turn the safety lever 56 down up to the stop to lock the firing pin. The red dot is
not visible. The pistol cannot be fired in this state.
Disabling the manual safety lock:
2. Turn the safety lever 56 all the way up to unlock the firing pin. The red dot is
visible. The pistol is ready to fire in this state.
2.6 Shock protection
The safety lock sits before the firing pin and prevents the firing pin from hitting the
cartridge. Only after the trigger pulls the pulling rod does the safety lever push the
safety lock upwards and thereby releases the firing pin.
16
www.sigsauer.com
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 non-standard
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.
W
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, NON-STANDARD,
“REMANUFACTURED” HAND-LOADED (RELOADED) AMMUNITION, OR CARTRIDGES
OTHER THAN THOSE FOR WHICH THE FIREARM WAS ORIGINALLY CHAMBERED.
www.sigsauer.com
17
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.
18
www.sigsauer.com
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.
W
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
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.

W 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
W
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
