What's the difference between a Sig 230 and a Sig 232?  
They look the same to me

P230 FAQ from www.sigarms.com

From the P232 info page:
"Classic Personal Size P232

The SIG SAUER P232 is a rugged 380 ACP pistol featuring a proven design with a well earned reputation for reliability and accuracy. It's proven design of perfect balance, smooth contours and rounded, snag-free edges make it ideal for personal protection.

The P232 is available in two frame materials: stainless steel for the ultimate in corrosion resistance or black hard-anodized aluminum alloy for light weight. Features a European-style magazine release. Note: the Blued model features a carbon steel slide."

I don't know what they actually changed on the pistol when they updated it but it sounds like they are similar enough.  Perhaps they changed the name when they started offering both stainless steel and aluminum as options for the slide.
