[From a real gun]
An automatic pistol developed by Sig in 1977. It was originally developed as a candidate for the West German police's official handgun, mainly for self-defense by plainclothes police officers and for self-defense by civilians.
Until then, the Walther PPK had dominated small- and medium-sized automatic pistols, but its performance, such as its compact yet excellent center-of-gravity balance, easy-to-grip grip, and simple structure, was highly evaluated, and it spread with a momentum approaching that of the PPK. Although the appearance has undergone several changes, it is still in production nearly 30 years after it was announced.
However, the model with the P230 name is currently out of the lineup, and the current model has been updated to the P232 with minor changes.


In Japan, it has been adopted by the SP (Senior Security Team), and has been deployed by the National Police Agency since the mid-1990s. The Japanese police specification P230 is a .32ACP bullet model, and the difference in appearance is the addition of a manual safety and a lanyard ring for loss/theft prevention.
In the trial at the National Police Agency, in addition to the same Sig P220, various guns such as Beretta M92F, Glock 17, P7M8, Walther PPK, etc. were tested, but as a result, this P230 was decided. seems to have become This decision, according to information from sources, is the intention within the police that even the standard 9mm bullet is too powerful, and if adopting the standard, rather than acquiring new license production rights, regarding the production of the P220, the existing SIG company It seems that it is due to the idea that it is quicker to exercise the license right of However, there is no official record that the P230 was actually produced under license in Japan.
The Japanese specification P230 adopted by the National Police Agency was originally equipped for plainclothes police officers, but is now also deployed for uniformed police officers. Although there are large differences depending on the region, it has been confirmed that uniformed police officers and firearms countermeasures units of the Chiba Prefectural Police are actually provided with special holsters. It seems that most of the firearms of the Mobile Investigation Corps and the Metropolitan Police Department SIT have been updated to this P230.
