SIG Sauer P238 Complete Specs and Full Gun Specifications

Reacting to many requests from the marketplace for a subcompact SIG SAUER pistol, engineers designed the new P238 as a smart looking, small handgun built with the same accuracy and reliability as large frame SIG SAUER pistols. With an overall length of just 5.5 inches a height of 3.96 inches, and weighing just under a pound, the SIG SAUER P238 is the ultimate firepower in an all metal frame concealed pistol. The P238 is built on an anodized alloy beavertail style frame with fluted grips for comfort and a secure hold during rapid-fire usage. The stainless steel slide features the popular SIG SAUER slide serrations and improves overall performance and accuracy. Additionally, the SIGLITE Night Sights are removable and adjustable for windage. The sear and trigger return spring are redesigned to prevent spring over-ride of the ejector during assembly. Trigger Pull: SA 7.5-8.5 lbs Sights: SIGLITE Night Sights Grips: Fluted Polymer Grips Frame Finish: Black Hard Coat Anodized Slide Finish: Nitron Accessory Rail: No

Sold other guns right after I shot this one.

The size compares to an LCP or KelTec but the balance and just enough weight make it very easy and fun to shoot. It is far more accurate than I expected and conceals as well as my wallet.

Best bang for the buck, so to speak.

This is the basic Sig P238-.380, not the Pearl, not the Rosewood, and not the Rainbow. Just the basic black, with black poly grips and YES, it comes with the 7 round extended mag. Very good bargain, other colors without the extended mag run about $650 to

Great pistol

Bought the P 238 a year ago and the grip and feel was comfortable for me and the accuracy was very good right out of the box. I bought it for my wife because of the light spring load action that makes it easy to cock. A well designed and quality firearm.

Seldom write reviews but the P238 deserves one. Always been a fan of larger calibers and only looked @ small 380's. Went to check out another brand that was on sale. The Sig fit great and has great features. Have tried different types of ammo trying

Best gun hands down!

Bought my Sig P238 two months ago. I've already sold my Ruger LCP and Beretta 91A...because once you shoot the Sig...nothing compares. It's small and lightweight enough for a small woman like myself to carry as my everyday ccw. The recoil is bar

I happen to own two of these. I have used one as my every day carry for over a year now, and have about 3000 rounds through it. I changed the recoil spring, and added a new set of grips to it, but thats all. The sights on this model far exceed what other
