Frequently Asked Questions
Sig Sauer P938 Scorpion for sale
Is the SIG Sauer P938 worth buying?
Worth buying depends on your needs. The P938 MSRP is $833, though street prices vary widely across retailers. It works well for concealed carry with reliable performance and a 1911-style manual of arms. Best value if you're already trained on 1911s; otherwise, compare it against other subcompact 9mms first.
What are the common problems with the SIG P938?
Some users report feeding issues related to ammunition type and magazine seating. Guide rod separation and recoil spring failures have been documented. Early production units showed inconsistent quality control. Most problems resolve after a break-in period or by using factory ammunition.
Is the SIG P938 snappy?
Yes, the P938 can be snappy. Its all-metal construction helps somewhat, but opinions are mixed — some shooters find recoil manageable, while others describe it as snappy due to the lightweight, narrow grip frame. A definitive "mild recoil" claim doesn't hold up across user experiences.
Can you pocket carry a SIG P938?
Yes, the P938 can be pocket carried. Its subcompact size fits most pocket holsters well. Always use a dedicated pocket holster to cover the trigger. Fit varies by clothing—relaxed or regular-fit pants work best. Some find it slightly heavy for all-day pocket carry compared to lighter alternatives like the Ruger LCP.
Where is the Sig Sauer P938 made?
Sig Sauer manufactures the P938 in Exeter, New Hampshire. The company moved its primary production from Germany to the United States in 2015. Current P938 pistols are made domestically, though some components may originate elsewhere.
Is the SIG Sauer P938 discontinued?
The SIG Sauer P938 has been discontinued. SIG Sauer's official site labels most P938 models as "discontinued, limited quantities available," and the P938 appears in SIG's Discontinued Products section. You may still find remaining stock through retailers, but check availability carefully as supplies are limited.
What is the difference between the SIG emperor scorpion and the scorpion?
The Emperor Scorpion adds a PVD polymer finish, G10 grips, and a curved see-through trigger compared to the standard Scorpion. Both are P938-platform pistols chambered in 9mm. Our marketplace currently has listings for both variants if you want to compare options directly.
How much is a used Sig P938 worth?
Used P938 prices typically range from $500 to $550 depending on condition. New models average around $714, so used examples trade at a notable discount. Actual value depends on wear, whether the original box is included, and local demand.
