Manufactured in West Germany and bearing the German eagle over N and Ulm stag antler proofs, this P230 also carries the SIGARMS INC. EXETER–NH import mark, placing it in the post-1990 import era. The P230-specific serration pattern and integral front sight correctly identify it as the P230 rather than the later P232.
The pistol uses a fixed-barrel, straight-blowback operating system paired with a DA/SA, hammer-fired action. Controls include a decocking lever and a European heel-type magazine release. There is no manual safety. An external spurred hammer provides clear status and easy manipulation.
Construction combines a black-anodized aluminum alloy frame with a blued slide. The compact format houses a 3.6-inch barrel and a 7+1 capacity. Slide machining includes narrow, numerous rear serrations and anti-glare top serrations for sight alignment.
Sights are fixed, with an integral front blade featuring a white dot and a fixed rear with white inserts for a clear, simple sight picture. An installed Hogue rubber grip sleeve adds traction. One steel single-stack magazine with a finger-rest baseplate is included.
