Does anyone know of a website that shows a diagram or pictures for field stripping or taking down either the Sig 230 or 232? Any help is appreciated.
 
sorry, No web site or pictures

drop mag, check chamber X 5
Do it again, "for the children".

Flip the takedown lever (front left side of slide).
Pull slide back - farther than normal now
lift rear of slide over hammer
carefully move slide forward and off barrel

It's apart as far as you want to go now.

Reverse to assemble

Hope this helps,

Thanks, does help. But I thought I had read somewhere about strange springs popping out. I know from pictures that the barrel has a spring, but another was mentioned?
 
No strange springs to deal with field stripping. Be careful taking the grip panels off, though. That's where you can get into spring trouble.
 
I got a Sig 230. There is a wierd side piece, ejector I think, that can slip off. When you disassemble look carefully how spring is installed. This may be what people told you about.

It's no big deal, if you take care to see how it's supposed to fit.
