Hello. I felt bad that Sigarms didn't have any posts so I felt compelled to visit. Did you know there is an echo of key strokes in here?

Having recently become a Sig owner for the first time, I'll say "HELLO" back atcha. I'm very pleased with the appearance and the handling characteristics of my P239. It just seems to
"present" itself to me when I pop open my fannypack/holster.

You know, I made that post a long time ago, but I guess it is fate that you posted on this thread, because I'm actually in the process of getting the money together to but a 239.

I'm glad you like yours. I've owned a 229 and I wasn't real happy with it, and I have a 220 that is outstanding, but I needed a compact gun for carry purposes. Down here in Texas, we can't always dress to hide such a large gun like the 220.

Yeah the 239 I think is the way to go. I have a Walther PPK/S but it's just a little too small. I mean, .380 ACP is ok and all, but I'd feel better with 9mm or better yet, .40 S&W.

Yes, I totally agree that the .380 is "a little small". Had the PPK/S also... accurate as a lazer, but just not enough umph for me. Sold the .380 and a S&W 640 .38 and just got around to getting the Sig for CCW... it is a .40 and has surprisingly little felt recoil. And, it's a pleasure to pack after toting around a full sized 9mm for a few months.
Hope you enjoy your 239!
