I ran across a Sig 229 "Carry" model at what I would judge to be a good price. I wasn't previously aware that this model existed. The Carry model has a shortened slide and shortened barrel bringing its overall length to 6.7" which is right at the max length I would consider for outside the waistband concealed carry. It maintains the full length grip which is more important to me. I'm not a fan of the mindset of reducing grip size on the so called compacts and subcompacts. I'm finding very little on the internet about this model. Does anyone have one? How does it shoot compared to the full sized 229?
It's time to arm my 21 year old son and he wants my Sig 239 which is my primary carry gun. So I have been looking around for a replacement and was considering the 225-A1 until I spotted this 229 Carry. I'd love to hear from owners who have them. No, I'm not considering a Glock 19 and neither is my son so save your keystrokes.
