I'm not a big fan of the Sig Company, but they do make some really nice firearms. When I looked at the 238 all I kept thinking about was how little I paid (comparatively) for my Ex-Wife's Colt Government 380 a decade ago and how little I sold it for back then (sigh!) the guns you should never let go of! I've learned my lesson and no longer get rid of guns. Anyway, back to the topic, I think it will be a great little gun and as a left eye dominant shooter I appreciate the ambi safety!

Some of these were basically unfired, the smaller magazine versions of the 226, that could be bought in the box, test target, german manual, etc. for about 240 bucks.

gmoats Campfire Regular G Joined: May 2010 Posts: 1,487 Wyoming	Originally Posted by KevinGibson Hey, did ya'll catch this: http://www.sigsauer.com/CatalogProductList/pistols-p938.aspx I stopped by the Sig display @ SHOT & handled a few of their samples--took pics which I'll post when I get home & can download from my camera. The samples that they displayed all had hideous trigger pulls--ie. 8#+ and gritty. The really bad feature was that they all had very sharp edges--ie. Make you bleed, sharp. These things were contrasted when I stopped & handled Kimber's Solo. It seemed like a superior weapon in every measurable category.

The Equinox has a kind of funky fiber optic front sight--very long, which seems inconsistent with a potential pocket pistol, the others had their proprietary "Siglite" night sights. As mentioned earlier, there were alot of sharp edges on the display models---maybe they'll smooth out the production-run guns---if so, would be a nice backup piece.

This is why there is no really small 9MM in my safe like the Rohrbaugh. George Orwell was a Prophet, not a novelist. Read 1984 and then look around you! Old cat turd!

The M&P compact and Smith 642 is about as small as my hands can handle. I've tried to go smaller and it seems like I'm "fighting" the gun to get my hits. Nothing to do with recoil, just continually trying to get the "right" grip. I can conceal the listed pair just fine, so I'll just go forth with 'em...
