What is the real difference between a Sig 228 and the 9mm varaition of the 229?
I know the slides are different, so the 229 would be a little heavier right? (correct me if I am wrong).
Will the heavier 229 slide give you a slight reduction in recoil, or is the difference to small to notice.
Also, with the 229 slide being stainless, I would think there would be more of a push for it as a CCW, but people seem to really love the 228 for this purpose, why? What are the pros and cons in a 228 vs. 229 situation?
I know I am missing something here (balance maybe)....anyone with some insight?
