be in Colt’s catalog from 1983 until it’s production would cease in 1996.
In 2009, new life would be breathed in to the now deceased
Mustang. When SIG SAUER announced the release of the P238
chambered in .380 ACP. This “new” pistol was built from a license
of the Mustang from Colt. A few years later, capitalizing on the
success of the P238 and answering the clamoring crowd of
consumers demanding a 9mm version the P938 was born.
While similar in design and appearance to their hugely
successful P238 .380 ACP micro-pistol. The P938 it differs by
being slightly longer, wider and heavier to facilitate the longer
and more powerful 9mm cartridge. The P938’s sales were so
strong, SIG included it in a number of following specialized series
such as the Nitron, Nightmare, Extreme, Combat, and an FDE
version known as the Scorpion. Heck, they’ve even got a Rose
Gold version if you’re in to that kind of thing. Now, SIG follows
up all their success with inclusion in their most elite version to
date, the Legion program. This stands out particularly impressive
considering the overwhelming production of polymer pistols
chambered in 9mm seemingly flooding the market, yet a steel
SIG pistol still manages to garner that much demand.
If your unfamiliar SIG’s Legion line of products, here is a quick
overview. The Legion program is SIG’s series of proven designs
in their catalog that have been tweaked and upgraded based on
years of feedback from shooters. This program is just as much
about the lifestyle as it is the high-quality firearms within it.
When you purchase a Legion product, you are eligible for Legion
membership perks like their exclusive branded holsters, knives,
shirts, hats and other gear from some of the industry’s top
manufacturers all sporting the now iconic Legion chevron.
