Notice:
The P250 Compact grip module (grip plastic) for 9mm / .40S&W / .357SIG has changed to match other P250 grips (Compact .45 and all Full Size calibers).
Design changes include the following:
- The accessory rail is changed from the curved style to a flat M1913 Picatinny style
- The grip texture features more aggressive stippling, and replaces the ridged texture featured on the front and back strap areas
This change took effect for new production in November 2009. The original grip style will no longer be available.
This change impacts two accessory items -
Magazines
- The two grip types use different magazines - the two magazines are NOT interchangeable.
- SIG SAUER will make both magazine types available to accomodate customer requirements.
Holsters
- The original P250 Compact paddle retention holster will ONLY fit the original (curved rail) grip. The new M1913 accessory rail models will not fit this holster.
- Two new holster models, one for P250 Full Size (all calibers) and one for P250 Compact (all calibers), are near completion and will be listed as soon as they are available.
Downloadable information, with detailed images showing the differences between grips, are shown below. Please familiarize yourself with this information before ordering magazines or holsters for the P250 Compact (9mm, .40S&W, .357SIG) to ensure you select the right accessories for your pistol.

Dear SIG SAUER Customer:
SIG SAUER, Inc. has initiated a Mandatory Safety Upgrade pertaining to our new Model P238™ pistols. We have determined that a small number of P238 pistols may have safety levers that are not manufactured to factory specifications. Under certain conditions, it may be possible for the lever not to be completely engaged in the safe position. In this condition, the gun will not fire when the trigger is pulled. However, when the safety lever is moved to the off position, the hammer may fall, with the remote possibility that the gun could fire unintentionally, thus creating a risk of injury or death.
