n 2009, three years after SIG’s initial success with
the P238’s release, they followed up on customer
demand for a 9 mm version by releasing the P938.
While the design was the same, it varied in overall
specs 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 specialised
series such as the Nitron, Nightmare, Scorpion and
even one version in which the slide finish appeared
to have a rainbow shimmer. Now, SIG follows up all their
success with inclusion in their most elite series to date, the
Legion program.
For those of you who aren’t familiar with SIG’s Legion
line of products, here is a quick recap. Basically, the Legion
program is SIG’s new series of proven designs in their
catalogue that have been reworked 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 such as exclusive
branded holsters, knives, shirts, hats and other gear from
some of the industry’s top manufacturers all sporting the
iconic Legion chevron.
