The double-action pull is longer and more stiff. Pulling back the slide sets the hammer backwards and downwards to its single-action position, making for a very short trigger pull, with minimal take-up. The trigger comes from the factory with a 24 newtons (5.5 lbf) single-action pull, and is capable of both single-action and double-action. Both versions came with a molded polymer, wrap-around grip that is contoured to give the shooter a comfortable and secure hold on the pistol. The blued version features a blued steel slide and a matching, anodized aluminum frame, whereas the stainless version was completely made from stainless steel. The P230 was available in both blued and all-stainless finishes. With its relatively narrow slide and frame it can be carried in an ankle holster or beneath body armor. It has a reputation as a well-built firearm, and competes with the smaller Walther PPK. The design and function of the P230 is of the simple fixed barrel, straight blow-back configuration. SIG P230 in hands of a member of Nara Prefectural Police The West German police decided to use 9mm Parabellum ammunition, with SIG Sauer P225 (P6), Walther P5, and H&K P7 being selected, and would be issued at the discretion of each state.
P230 was submitted for the search, but was not selected. However, various terrorist incidents in West Germany circa early 1970s, such as 1972 Munich Massacre and Red Army Faction's activities, pushed the West German law enforcement outfits to seek new, more powerful handguns to counter to these new threats.
32 ACP, as at the time, no 9×19mm pistol was compact nor portable enough for concealed carry. After World War II, the West German state police mainly carried Walther PP and Walther PPK models chambered in. SIG P230 was designed in 1977 as a concealable law enforcement sidearm. In 1996 it was replaced by the model P232. It was imported into the United States by SIGARMS in 1985.
It was designed by SIG Sauer of Eckernförde, Germany. The SIG Sauer P230 is a small, semi-automatic handgun chambered in. Walter Ludwig, Hanspeter Sigg, Peter Blickensdorferĭouble Action/Single Action (DA/SA) With decocking leverħ-round magazine (.380 ACP & 9mm Ultra)
