1 year agoPurchased this to replace another 380ACP pistol. Extremely happy with this one and the accuracy is phenomenal. Did not even need to adjust sights and shoots very well even to 25 yards.

1 year agoPut at least 400 rounds through this. Finding jams and slow 'racking' between rounds when shooting. Should not be the case,this is an expensive pistol. Brought back to place of purchase. Little to no work performed. Fired 50 rounds after picking it up. Still jamming.

1 year agoI like everything about this gun except that there is a known issue where the slide will fly off if you rack it just slightly to the left. If you rack slightly to the left then straight it may still fall out. I am shocked that this is considered safe by Sig.

1 year agoI purchased my Legion 8 months ago, and have fired ~700 break-in rounds through it. Sights are spot-on out to 10 yards, barrel lockup is tight, and recoil is very light. Have experienced no FTF or FTE (common in other Mouse Guns. Generally, I like this pistol and trust it for EDC, but feel that Sig should have done a better job of machining & fitment: Engaging / disengaging safety is not smooth, causing hammer to jerk rearward / forward; Trigger pull measures ~9+ pounds (excessive on a

1 year agoI would give this gun 5 stars, if it wasn't ammo picky. Bought Winchester Silvertip Hollow Point for personal protection and this ammo would not chamber/cycle at all. Sold the gun for this very reason. I have never owned a gun that does not cycle a round or is picky about a certain ammo. Gave it 3 stars because it is well built and with round nose it works perfectly, but most HP are not "round nose" so for personal protection I'd be wary in ammo choice and always test and test again, and test yet again, your life depends on it.

1 year agoPurchased for a new EDC, found it to be very accurate and well made. Unfortunately during my training drills I found the tightness of the safety caused me to skip over the safety and get into a no fire situation. I found this to be the case about 1/3 of the time when doing stress drills. Being a 5 foot female the low profile of the safety and my small thumb was the problem. I have reverted back to my 232 for EDC.

1 year agoI never, ever, do product reviews but, I make an exception for the P238 I bought, and have carried daily, for the past 6 months. I have had many handguns throughout my life but this Sig Sauer P938 checks all of my "must have" feature buttons and is by far my favorite conceal carry weapon of all time. Over the years I've gone from revolvers to double action micro semi-automatics to striker fired and now finally a "1911" hammer style single action micro semi-automatic that is super easy to

1 year agoThis is an exceptional handgun. Very accurate. Flawless. My first Sig, and it definitely lived up to its name. Well made, quality handgun. Love it.

1 year agoWhen I purchased this firearm I was seeking a small - concealable - manageable recoil pistol for someone up in their senior years where weight - recoil might be an issue. I have numerous compact pistols and this one is the primary go too for me. Heavy enough to absorb recoil but light enough to carry it all day. Also extremely accurate out to about 45'.

1 year agoI prefer to pocket carry and the P238 in a Sticky holster, suits my needs perfectly. I’m at the point in life where my hand strength isn’t what it used to be and the ease with which I can rack the slide is a huge plus. I ordered mine with the Sig Laser and I’m glad I did. It certainly helps with quick target acquisition. There’s very little to complain about with this firearm.

1 year agoThis is exactly what my wife was looking for in a concealed carry weapon. Not too large, weighted to reduce recoil, and a slide that is easy to operate.

1 year agoI bought this pistol because it was a special which included a laszer and extra clip. It’s a Sig so I know it would be a great gun at a great price.

1 year agoGot this a couple months ago and have a couple hundred flawless rounds through it. Came with a Sig Lima 38 laser and Hogue wraparound grips. Nice! Laser makes it tough to find a holster. Wish it had night sights.

1 year agoI sold several firearms to purchase this 380. Loved the night sights and ergonomics. My wife sequestered the firearm from me after a few test rounds. SO I ended up buying another Sig Sauer for myself. To be fair, its a bit on the heavy side for every-day-carry. I did carry it in my pocket for a few months, but I ended up keeping a ligher Ruger LCP2 in my pockets and have the Sigs in the safes besides our beds.

1 year agoBest .380 I have ever fired. Out of the box no malfunctions. Accurate and no finger bite very comfortable to shoot.

1 year agoSmoothest Best shooting gun, perfect caliber for a guy or a girl to have fun shooting. You can take multiple shots rapidly and hit the target. Higher calibers like the Sig P938 9mm makes your hand jump too far to stay on target for rapid shots so you have to re-aim every shot. I have both the P938 and the P238, and I would buy this P238 over the P938 for sure. I've never had it jam up. I have a Walther P22 and it jams once every 2 clips, so paying for quality is a big deal. The sights are

1 year agoPurchased this for my wife for her first carry gun. I wasn't shipping for a SIG, but that's just what we ended up with! After trying countless different brands, we came upon this little beauty. My wife said if feels like an extension of her hand. It just felt "RIGHT". Performs flawlessly at the range, surprisingly solid and absorbs felt recoil like a champ. Easy to clean, easy to operate, a joy to shoot. This is my introduction to SIG, I can't wait to try some of the other models the coming New Year!

1 year agoI've owned two of these. The first I showed my son and he wanted it. The good dad made a gift of it and immediately bought another. Easy to conceal, beautiful, easy to control at the range, great accuracy, easy to clean.
