Sig Sauer P238 vs LCP P380 P-3AT DB380 TCP Bodyguard 380 Comparison

armspost | Comparisons, Product Info | January 31, 2013

We have sized up the Sig Sauer P238 for anyone interested in seeing how it compares to the Ruger LCP, Kahr P380, Kel-Tec P-3AT, Diamondback DB380, Taurus TCP, and Smith & Wesson Bodyguard 380.

As for size, the Sig Sauer P238 is right there in the mix with the other .380 pocket pistols. The Sig P238 is also available in many, oh so many, different looks.

There are a few things that jump out and make you take notice while comparing the Sig Sauer to other .380 ACP pocket pistols. First of all you will probably take note of the price as it is in the very high end of the models mentioned here. Another thing is that the Sig is a bit heavier than the others.

We believe the weight and price of the P238 will push some Sig fans in the direction of the P290 9mm pistol. For that reason we have included a size comparison of those at:
