Great question. Impossible for ME to answer. I know they have insane amounts of testing in Ca, from melt tests, to drop tests, to safety tests. And many more tests. For whatever reason, Californian dictators determined this model to be Ca legal.

Reacting to many requests from the marketplace for a subcompact Sig Sauer pistol, engineers designed the P238 as a smart looking, small handgun built with the same accuracy and reliability as large frame Sig Sauer pistols. With an overall length of just 5.5 inches a height of 3.96 inches, and weighing just under a pound, the Sig Sauer P238 is the ultimate firepower in an all metal frame concealed pistol. The P238 is built on an anodized alloy beavertail style frame with fluted grips for comfort and a secure hold during rapid-fire usage. The stainless steel slide features the popular Sig Sauer slide serrations and improves overall performance and accuracy. Additionally, the SigLite Night Sights are removable and adjustable for windage. The sear and trigger return spring are redesigned to prevent spring over-ride of the ejector during assembly. The Sig Sauer P238 is shipped in a lockable hard case with one 6 round magazine. California approved.
