SIG Sauer P238
The SIG Sauer P238 is a member of the Micro-Compact Pistols class most typically in .380 ACP caliber. Actually the P238 is available chambered in .380 ACP, or 9mm Short. It is modelled after the M1911, similar to the Colt Mustang. Grip panels are fluted polymer making this an all-metal frame firearm in competition with plastic-framed pistols in the same class like the Ruger LCP and the Kel-Tec P-3AT. The P238 has an aluminum frame and a stainless steel slide (with the exception of the HD model which is all stainless steel). Initially, P238 pistols had standard sights with night sights as a more expensive option. However, all models currently produced have night sights standard. Starting in 2012, many variants have an ambidextrous thumb safety standard or as an option.
