Small guns are not fun to shoot, there's just no way around it.
I enjoy shooting my P380 and my wife enjoys shooting her PM9, so much so that we occasionally leave the full-size auto's at home. We did sell the j-frame though.

@Sgt_R Thanks that's good news. I am a die hard Glock fan (G19,G26) so the Kahr 380 will be the 380 that Glock couldn't get into the USA.
With the new ammunition that is core bonded in 380, such as Winchester PDX1, Remington Golden Saber, and Speer Gold dot , the wound channel and penetration is very adequate for the up-close conditions you are going to encounter with a CCW.
I looked at LC9 and other variants today, after looking at all the small, slim 9mm pistols I really did not see any more practicality in them from a snub nose .38
Maybe one more round than the .38....? big whoop! Weight might be the biggest difference, but I bought a Model 85 Ultralite which compares out weight wise and a Model 905 9mm revolver and passed the small 9mm autos aside.
For deep carry I contend that any of the little autos are to no great advantage over a small snubbie revolver.
But dont get me wrong I like the LC9 and Taurus 709 Slim alot but just seen no great advantage over revolver.
I have a TCP as well as a P238 and although the TCP is softer shooting than the LCP qnd P3AT it's not nearly as soft shooting as the P238.The LCP is much, much, much snappier than a Sig 238. It's really not fun to fire, whereas the 238 is pretty comfy.
Supposedly the Kahr P380 and Taurus TCP are soft shooters, but I've never had the opportunity to fire one.
IMO the P238 is in a class by it's self.
I think the reason the P238 shoots so well is 380 is the right round for the gun.I wish Sig would make something like the P238 but in 9mm. I like the design but not the chambering, and their other subcompact 9's don't really do anything for me. The P239 is a sweet gun, but a little too big given its capacity IMHO.
I didn't know that. It should be a good seller.Couldn't agree more. Did you see that Colt is resurrecting the Mustang? I'll be picking one of those up too. Should be interesting to shoot them back to back.
