PGT, where did the wood stocks come from? I like those.

I'm not PGT, but I believe those wood grips with the SIG logo were a special-run item from SIG. I'm not sure who made them.

Hogue makes wood grips for the P230/232, but they don't have the logo.

Marschal makes some logo grips, but they're not the same as those:

Nill makes some very nice wood grips, buy they're not cheap (and no logo):

Wendy has a Sig P-230 stainless as her carry gun. She even took it to FrontSite for a course. Great shooting weapon that she likes a whole lot. Chris

I just wish that they had a "US Style" magazine release rather than the heel release.

If the mag release button were behind the trigger guard, the de-cocking lever would not function as it is. Personally, I'm happy with the heel mag release. It's almost impossible to dump the mag accidentally.

I have one of the last (all black) 232 made.
Great hand feel. The small 9mm pistols caused
low sales so were discontinued.
I don't pack mine but keep it as a desk gun loaded with Lehigh Xtreme Defense ammo. Maybe the best of the 380 ammo.
Reviews have indicated a desirable round.

You guys are really lucky for owning Stainless 232s. I just have a blued P232.

I was in the process of a divorce and had to sell my Stainless P230 to my brother nearly 10 years ag. He won't sell it back to me.



My 232 with wood grips. I should have picked a lighter colored wood.

The wood grips with Sig logo were a special run for Sig made by Karl Nills. Nills grips are truly beautiful and worth the money.

Most beautiful handgun I have owned. More importantly, point-aims better than anything I have ever held. I feel well armed with it, despite the modest ballistics, simply because it is an extension of my hand. Look at target, on target.

I have one of each, P232 blue and stainless. Agree they are very easy to point/shoot and are very very accurate.
