Sig Sauer P938: Nightmare Edition

[CDRGlock]

Just fired 225 rounds of FMJ, including 25 rounds of Hornady +P. 3 failures to return to battery on FMJ.

I field stripped it and lubed it prior to taking it out. Magazine and spring was still quite stiff. On the last 20 rounds, it was going exactly into the black at 7 yards. I tried one box at 25 yards, not too tight of a grouping, (likely me, not the gun), but the trigger is still pretty heavy/ stiff compared to the 238 which was buttery smooth. No problems with this gun so far at 15 yards and in. I was hitting about 2.5" freehand at 7 yards.

Compared it to the 238 with Buffalo Bore 90 grain +P and the 238 actually stung more than the 9mm at plus P, which did not sting. No snappiness as described. Controllable with strong or weak handed shooting.

It fed my JHPs reliably. I could almost say that it's ready for carry but I don't have a backup magazine and I want to shoot another 200 rounds, after cleaning. Overall, I'm very happy with it. Handles better than a 238 with +P ammo. When I got used to the trigger, I had major control. I may do one more indoor range trial before doing my usual steel plates at 25 and 15 yards.

This gun is nearly ready for prime time for Concealed carry. Finally found a good micro carry 9mm.

This is a little longer, feels thicker and the slide appears slightly taller than a 238. Trigger feels heavier than a 238. This could be because it needs lubrication. It didn't feel as smooth. I used an air spray and rem oil. I'll have to see if that translates to a different feel.

The P238 I have weighs 12.9 oz and the P938 weighs 15.6 oz, no magazine or ammo.

I love this thing. Better than a DiamondCrap DB9.

Comparison between the 238 and 938.
