Has anyone seen/shot the new Sig P238?  Anyone know where to get one yet?

Just looked it up on the website.
It looks like an old Colt Pony.
Neat looking little gun but I don't think I will be trading in my P230 for one

Pretty much a Mustang. They don't come with the trick aluminum grips that were shown in the early info. Check out topgun supply they are pretty tight with SIG and are excellent folks to deal with.

I have a colt Government model .380, AWSOME GUN!!
Yes, Colt did make a goverment model .380!   
I am looking at getting the Sig or the WaLTHER pk380.   
The Sig is supposed to fix some of the problems the Colt Mustang had.
It looks very promising

Finally got one, and I like it.  Do they still make the 232?

The Mustang I had was/is one of the few guns I ever traded.
It was so bad it couldn't even be used for a paperweight, it would slide off the paper. :D ;)
I have never missed it.

I own a P238 and have shot it and it functions perfectly. No problems at all. It is a very fine pistol. I love the night sites. 26-t

Bought one in Beaumont yesterday, There was a blued one, a stainless one and a "rainbow".

 It goes into my pocket with little if any "show". Will prolly be my Sunday go to meeting carry.

Had the chance to handle and fire one recently while at the range.  I was impressed with the accuracy and way it handled, but still would not trade my 232 for one.

It just is not as “slick” as the 232.  Sig apparently tried to duplicate the Mustang or at least a scaled down version of the 1911, they did a good job, but why the effort when you already have a quality piece in the 232? ??? ??? ???

It is Tiny and Lite and fits very well in a Crossbreed Tight tuck holster. Great for CCW. 26-t

In case inquiring minds want to know, Sig makes a trigger guard mounted
laser model 238 or you can do like me and just buy the laser.

Is that Sig 232 small enough to conceal in your front pocket???

I've looked at the 238 and really like it, considering it for a pocket pistol...

I carry mine (232) in my front pocket, but the 238 is a wee bit smaller..go to a gun shop and try one.
