The P238 Nitron pairs a stainless-steel slide with a factory Nitron finish and a black hard-coat anodized aluminum-alloy frame, delivering a durable, matte black presentation. The slide is marked "SIG SAUER P238," and the frame is marked "SIG SAUER INC., NEWINGTON–NH–USA."
It runs a locked-breech, short-recoil tilting-barrel system with a 2.7-inch barrel and a 7+1 capacity. Controls include a button-style magazine release, an external serrated spur hammer, a manual thumb safety, and a firing-pin safety.
Fixed 3-dot contrast sights are dovetailed into the slide, with a square-notch rear and a dovetailed front, providing a 3.8-inch sight radius. The slide uses rear vertical serrations for traction, while the frame features vertical serrations on both the frontstrap and backstrap, complemented by black ribbed grip panels.
This micro-format .380 ACP is configured for straightforward carry and operation, combining compact dimensions with steel sights, clear factory markings, and the included 7-round magazine with an extended finger-rest baseplate.
