was my sig made in germany?

Ok, so my p228 has the proof marks and date code under the barrel. It also has made in Germany on the right side of the slide, but then on the left side it says Exeter, NH. How do I know if my Sig was 100% made in Germany?

If you have made in Germany and the proof marks, it was German manufactured. The Exeter, NH markings is because that is the importer's mark or ID.

Correct, it says made in Germany on the slide and proof marks and date code under the muzzle. Does that also mean that it was assembled in Germany?

This is enough to assure that your P228 was "100% made in Germany."
