Sig Sauer P238 Gambler 8/1/15…

 

 

Good evening all.  One last post for this weekend.  The rare Sig’s just keep on coming this week and it puts a smile on my face from ear to ear.  This little entry strikes a chord with me as I love poker.  THE P238 GAMBLER, features the dead man’s hand, a two-pair poker hand, namely “aces and eights” which gets its name from a legend that it was the five-card-draw hand held by Wild Bill Hickok, when he was murdered in 1876, at Deadwood, South Dakota. Since its introduction in 2009 the P238 has redefined the role of a .380 ACP caliber pistol for personal protection. The “Gambler” edition, was  available for a short time in limited quantities. The “Gambler” features a rendering of the dead mans hand in 24K selective gold inlay. The text “The Gambler”, name adorns right side of the slide. This weapon is from the same collector that brought in the X5 Short & Smart and it is also NIB (never fired) but “technically” used, as it’s been in his collection for about a year.  As always, thank you for reading the Blog at gunshinearms.com
