I almost got a PPK about 10 years ago but opted for a Sig P230 (.380). I still want a PPK, but just for the 007 cred, but I love my P230
I need a p230 or p232 too... I love those lines.

Here's my Sig P230 Where's the mag release? Also...what year? That looks vintage. That's what PACKING means xD
Not sure how to take that. I need it to go under the kilt because a) my kilt belt is about 3.5" wide (too wide for any holster). And b) it just doesn't look good to wear a kilt with an untucked shirt, so impossible to conceal.

It's at the base of the grip. I'm not sure of the exact age, and apparently Sig serial numbers have nothing to do with the date of manufacture so you can't actually "decode" it. I do know they stopped making the P230 in 1996 (does that make it vintage?). The grips are aftermarket. I got them specifically to look classic/vintage.

I am so sorry! I just can't help myself. I'm sorry! I hope everyone is having a good day.
Useless as usual. Thanks for contributing. It's at the base of the grip.

Ok. The grips were what I was paying attention to, but the metal also looked aged. According to what I found the P230 was designed in 1977.(.....such a great year.)

You can't take a joke so you take a point? Typical. GFY!

Yes. Your overall attitude, since I've been back, has just plain sucked. So boohoo that I don't find your jokes funny. Maybe I'd be less severe if they weren't so ill-timed, ill-placed, or irrelevent. We were having a nice discussion until you got bored and butted in. So take your stupid point back, and have one to grow on. Though I doubt that's possible.

It was just a joke about having a gun under a kilt next to the other gun. ^^"
Those sure seem ideal for that purpose.

You talking about kilts being ideal for concealment? So I've heard. According to the wife's historical research, concealment of weapons was integral in the evolution of traditional Scottish attire.

I was more talking about small guns such as Walther PPK and Sig Sauer P230/232. But kilts too. I love mine. Although I can't wear it at work. I need a tactical one.

What do you do for work? And do you mean "utility" vs. "tactical"?

I'm a nuclear decomissionning engineer and my employeers don't think our client could handle my kilt xD it's not that usual in France sadly. That's what "modern" kilts with pouches and stuff are called on french websites. Unless it's just because they only sell the 5.11 ones. Dunno.

Meh. Shock and awe. Unless you're in the UK, a kilt is going to get you noticed. I love it. Apparently, they are interchangeable. But yeah, a utility kilt has pockets to usurp the need for a sporran.

I was guifted with a sporran when I left my former job. I loved working with my kilt on and it did get attention. But I was not on site. It's a different vibe indeed.

I know we're getting off topic, but are you natural born French or a transplant? 'Cause if you really wanted to, in the "modern" social climate, you could easily make an argument that it is part of your cultural heritage and that they can't keep you from expressing it.
