Sig P232

by Jack Tubz
(Michigan)

Two-Tone P232

Two-Tone P232

The Sig Sauer P232 is simply the best gun for a concealed carry. I have shot many guns and this one is great. The fixed barrel makes the .380 caliber shoot extremely straight. Also the smooth rounded edges make it a breeze to conceal. The .380 caliber may be small but with some good ammunition and accuracy it will pack a punch. I have not shot the stainless version or the blued but they must all be the same. I can say that I have been shooting the two-tone and performance speaks for itself. I would highly recommend the two-tone Sig Sauer P232 as the best.

I'm in agreement with the others here. A easy, accurate and flawlessly-reliable pistol to shoot.
Mine is the black aluminum-framed version, but there's no frame battering on about 500 rounds. Doesn't look like that'll ever happen either.

It is kinda wierd; the decocker is where you'd expect the magazine release to be, (and as others have mentioned) it's got a heel mag release.

For CCW purposes the heel mag release probably isn't an issue; you hopefully won't be doing quick magazine changes anyway. And without a mag release button on the side, the pistol will never drop a magazine by sitting on it or bumping it while CC'ing.

The pistol is small enough to effectively conceal, but big enough to handle and aim well.

starstarstarstar 		A Great carry gun
by: Dan , Texas

I have been trained (Gunsite) and practiced with 1911 platform autos for more than 30 years. On occassion, I do carry a Kimber Stainless Ultra Carry, which is a very nice compact mini .45.

However, for the last year or so, I find that for every day carry, I go with my Sig Sauer P232 .380,
in a Don Hume IWB holster The pistol is loaded with 8 rds of Cor Bon 90 gr JHP. This pistol is 100% reliable and very acurate. The only aspect of the Sig that I don't care for is the European style magazine release (Bottom of grip). I do a fair amount of practice shooting with this pistol, and in over 800 or so rds, have yet to see a malfunction. The one time I used it on a live target, I dispatched an armadillo with one shot through the neck, causing instant death.
I would recommend the Sig 232 as a reliable and effective (with good shot placement) carry pistol, and with a spare magazine carried in a hip pocket, one should feel adequately armed.

The Sig P232 is the best gun for C.C. that I have found. The problem with most CCWs is that the handle is too small for my hand. I feel like I do not have stability and control. The Sig has a handle that provides excellent control and at the samme time is small & smooth enough for day to day carry. The only drawback is the european style mag. eject. You must push a button on the bottom of the handle to eject the mag. Ok once you get used to it.

My wife and I carry and when we first got into this we were told that revolvers were the way to go as they always fire, are simple and intuitive, more difficult to take out of battery, etc. After reading from this site and others she decided to try out a few revolvers... and hated them! Didn't like the feel, the recoil (.38 spl), sights, grips, nothing! Predisposed to only consider a revolver, she reluctantly tried a bottom feeder that happened to be the Sig 232 and it was literally 'love at first shot'. Light, accurate, totally reliable (hundreds of rounds without a single hiccup), and a smooth body for rapid retrieval from purse or holster. She loves it and feels fully confident that if the need arises, this little Sig will get the job done. Also, it's so light and compact that she carries it all the time. With proper defense ammunition, the Sig 232 is indeed a roaring mouse gun. Highly recommended.

I love the looks and feel of the 232. I would love to have one, but they are costly.
