Every so often I look at the Sig 230s on GB. Owned an alloy frame one a long time ago. Always thought they were better pistols than the saintly Walthers.
Followed some on GB, and picked up a nice 230SL with two factory mags. Told my friend, who has been one of Sig's LE Armorer trainers for a long time, and he mentioned he knew of a dealer that had a bunch of police trade-ins, at very low prices. So of course I had to reach out, and picked up a 232SL trade in, cheap.
Was watching a couple on GB again just to track the prices, and saw a really nice 230SL, box/test target/manual/two factory mags. Not many bids on it, and I threw out a bid near the end of the auction, expecting the other guy to bump it but not feeling too bad.
And gosh darn, didn't I win that too!
A fellow forum member here responded to my WTB factory magazine post, so now I have a good supply of factory zipper back mags.
Be careful what you wish for, I guess.

Welcome to the club.

I really wasn't trying to corner the market.

When it rains it pours, but in a good way this time. Congrats! Never owned a P230, but some of the stainless ones certainly make me drool.

My wife's aunt has a PPK, and the P230/P232s are superior in every way.

I see some NIB blued P232s at Kansas Gunshop Online…$470.00 that’s not a total scam lol


Where did you seen the stainless ones?
Thanks
