The Sig Sauer P238 Rosewood is a small-frame sub-compact pistol that is designed for conceal and carry, self-defense, and off-duty purposes. The overall length of the pistol is 5.5-inches, with a 2.7-inch barrel. It holds a standard 6-round magazine that fires .380 ACP (9mm short) rounds. The pistol can also take an upgraded extended magazine for people who feel uncomfortable shooting the pistol with the last digit on the hand (pinky finger) hanging off the grip. The frame is alloy, with black hard coat anodized finish. The slide is stainless steel, with a Nitron finish.
The P238 series has been on the market since 2009, and is an offshoot of the Colt Mustang. The Colt Mustang is a compact version of the 1911 model of pistols. The P238 has a front fixed sight, and a rear U-Notch SigLite Nightsights, that feature 2 white dots in the rear and 1 dot on the front. The frame is a beavertail that has left side safety controls for right handed shooters, and starting in 2012 all P238 models were made available to allow special orders for right handed controls for left handed shooters. The grips are checkered Rosewood that also have a fluted front strap. The trigger is an SAO with 7.5-8.5 pounds of pull when firing. It has serrations on the rear of the slide for easier loading of rounds into the chamber.
