Hope this wasn't dumb questions

I'm waiting for someone to chime in. I didn't know that the current P239's are not considered classic P series.

I guess thr difference maybe hammer fire versus striker fire. Not sure still learning bout all the sig family

I'm not aware of any striker fired P239s, but I don't know everything.

The P239 was in the manual when I took the armorer's course for the classic P-series pistols. So I think it is considered one.

As far as I know, there is no striker-fired p239. They make a DAK one, and a DA/SA one, but I think all of the p239's are "classic p series".
I could be wrong though.

Correct. 239's have always been hammer fired.

Perhaps your thinking of the P320?

The 230 is also hammer fired- are you thinking of the 320?

Yes, my fingers got ahead of my mind!

Glad it isn't just me that does that.

When was the last year the clsssic series was manufactured. . Mine was manufactured in 2005.

What is meant by "classic series"?

 

[Lkwebb]

Found articles talking about the classic p series Sigs.... that's why I asked...

The Classic P-series is still in production, they consist of models of the same basic design, varying in size, caliber and capacity.

P220
P224
P225
P225A1
P226
P227
P228
P229
P239

Models such as P230, P232, P238, P938, P320, P250, P290, SP2022 all have the P prefix in their model designation but are not considered to be part of the Classic P-series. P210? Anyone's guess! lol

The P250 is not consider a "Classic P-series" SIG. That came along much later and is a completely different design from that "Class P-series" metal-framed guns. The pocket pistols are also newer and of a different design.

FWIW, I personally consider the P239 (whatever vintage) to be a member of the "classic P-series" SIG lineup.
