Jan 19, 2012 If you buy a 238, just make sure the serial number starts with '27A'. And yes, SIG has just started producing a 9mm version (the P938). The only difference in size is it is 1/2' longer than the 238.
Just picked up a new Sig 229 that finally came in at the dealer in town today. Inside and out, looks like it's had no more than a few test shots at the factory.
However, the envelope for the shell casings is dated April 2004. This seems odd to me, as when I've brought Glocks, the shell casings are never more than a couple months before the purchase date. The serial number starts with an AL, which I'm guessing is old, due to the shell casing envelope. I did read on the Gunzone about a 229 in 9mm cracking with an AL prefix, but the slide was German manufactured, so I'm not concerned about this, but the story happened in 2003, so I'm guessing my gun is new/old from this info also. It came with 13 round mags, but they're both LE, and I'm assuming Sig doesn't LE label new hi caps anymore. Anyway- any links to where I can date this serial number?

Thanks AshNH- Though the letter clue did not help, I removed one of my grips, as you had indicated a date code, and found my grips had a stamped circel with 1-12, an arrow pointing to 6, and the number 03 stamped in the middle of the circle, indicating the grips were made June 03. Though this gun looks brand new, and I paid for it as new, I wonder where the hell it's been sitting for almost 2 years.
