New .380acp Pocket Gun.......Pics inside

[stmcelroy]

While in a local shop yesterday I happened to notice a neat new little .380acp pocket gun. I'm always on the lookout for something small that I can make pocket holsters for, so when i saw this gun I had to check it out.

It's a Sig P238 .380ACP copy/clone of a Colt Mustang. Single action only with a 6+1 round capacity. Way back when I first got into gun I bought a Colt Mustang Pocket-lite for CCW, but ended up trading or sell it for the flavor of the month.

Upon holding this gun I knew that I just had to buy it, it fit my hand great pointed very nicely and had a great trigger. I have a LCP but have never really carried it for some reason, but this gun will very likely join the CCW rotation.

Rumor has it that these guns are very reliable and pretty dang accurate, we'll just have to see.


Here are some pictures of my P238.











Hopefully a range report will be coming this weekend, that's if I can round up some ammo.

Price?

Price?

I paid $550 plus sales tax for the 2-tone with factory night sites, maybe i could have saved a few bucks but I wanted it now.

I saw one in the shop. It seemed solid and I liked the grip. Would like to see how yours works out.

Very nice congrats.

It weighs 15.2 oz. to the LCP's 9.4.

Awesome!!

I love my P238. I sure wish you made IWB holsters, I need an IWB bad for it, but no one has it available yet.

Nice, I wouldn't mind having one, of course that is assuming that I could find ammo for it

Interesting purchase...be sure to report on its performance at the range.

I've been interested in looking at one, but our gun shop has not had one arrive as of yet.

I would like to see one placed side by side with a KelTec P-3AT.

Nice, for us 1911 fans that will be a great addition to the stable and a lot lower cost than a Mustang.

Range report PLEASE! That may just be my next HG. Two-Tone exactly as purchased by OP

Does your pocket holster cover the safety/lock?

A good friend of mine has carried the Colt version for many many years, and I always like it.

Our Wally World has actually had some ammo as of late. It doesn't last too long, but they had a pretty good selection. (.380, .38, 9mm,.357, .40 & .45.) The gentleman behind the counter said that they actually got quite a few cases in, and are expecting more. Not WWB by the way, only Remington, which is good by me. Maybe there will actually be some ammo available pretty soon on a more regular basis.

Either way, you might want to keep an eye on on Wally World.

Cocked and locked SA with no grip safety in the pocket!
