The SIG-Sauer P230 is a compact semi automatic pistol chambered in 9x17mm (also known as 9mm kurz / 9mm Short / .380 ACP). It was originally also available in 7.65x17mm (.32 ACP) caliber, but this chambering was eventually dropped. It is available in both blued, Stainless Steel and Two-Tone versions. The P230 was manufactured by SIG between 1977 and 1996. The P230 stopped production in 1996, having been replaced by the SIG P232 (an updated version of the P230 with adjustable rear sights and slight changes in frame, slide and barrel, as well as also reintroducing 7.65mm chambering).
