Sig P238

(1/2) > >>

Canthavenuthingood:
Wife needed a new gun (who am I to argue?) so we went to range renting and shooting.
Several times.
She really like the Sig P238 as did I since it resembles the 1911.

So ordered the HD and it was right at $800 out the door, ordered 2 additional 6 round mags and 500 rounds of .380
The HD is about 5 ounces heavier than the others as its Aluminum frame rather than polymer.

Gun arrived, we waited patiently for 11 days.
Received gun and went to range, she loves it, shoots it well, handles it well.
It does not like the Winchester White box nor the Partizan, several FTF with each.
It does like the reloads my FFL sells and the Fiochhi hollow points.

Wife likes the gun and shoots it often so it was well worth the arm & leg price.

Problems she had with many semi autos was pulling back the slide. A double jointed thumb is weak and couldn't rack my 1911's, or Glocks.
She has a Beretta Tomcat .32 and a GP100 in .357 she qualified with her LTC.

Good purchase so far.
She likes and shoots it, about 500 rounds now.

floogy:
I thought the HD was a steel frame and the two-tone is alloy (aluminum). I handled both at a gun shop a couple days ago. Sweet little guns. Want one for ccw.

1CavScout:
HD is the steel frame. My two tone is an alloy frame with the HD slide. They don't make a polymer frame. Great little gun.

If she uses the right technique she should be able to rack any slide.

Have her watch these videos
