Sig Sauer released a specially designed pistol honoring retired Navy Master Chief Britt Slabinski.

Slabinski, a Navy SEAL, earned the Medal of Honor while serving in Afghanistan.

In May 2018, President Donald Trump awarded retired Navy Master Chief Britt K. Slabinski the Medal of Honor for his heroic actions while leading a Joint Task Force during Operation Anaconda in Afghanistan.

Now Sig Sauer is paying tribute in its own way.

This past National Medal of Honor Day, the gunmaker unveiled a specially designed commemorative P226 pistol - the same pistol that SEALs carried under the official MK25 designation - to honor Slabinski's receipt of the the nation's highest award for valor.
