Sig Sauer P238 238380Escpn 238 380 Emp Scrpn Fde

The Sig Sauer P238 in .380 ACP is a single-action micro-compact pistol purpose-built for concealed carry. This all-metal frame handgun brings the accuracy and reliability Sig Sauer is known for into a package small enough to pocket or ankle carry without printing or bulk. At 5.5 inches overall length, 3.9 inches tall, and just 16 ounces, the P238 delivers serious firepower in a frame that doesn't demand compromise on comfort or accessibility.

Built on a hard-coat anodized alloy beavertail frame, the P238 sits flat and naturally in the appendix or waistband without sharp edges catching clothing or skin. The stainless steel slide wears a flat-dark-earth (FDE) Nitron finish that resists corrosion and blends into tactical or outdoor gear. Sig's trademark slide serrations give you purchase for press-checks and malfunction clearance. The 2.7-inch barrel, single-action trigger, and SIGLITE night sights combine for accurate, confident shooting even in low light—critical for defensive scenarios.

The G-10 Piranha grips provide positive control and durability without excess material. This is not a range toy; the P238 is engineered for serious concealed carriers, backup pistol roles, and anyone who refuses to sacrifice capability for deep concealment. Whether you're in the field, on your belt, or in your pocket, the P238 delivers Sig's track record of dependability in a form factor that works.
