I have a Sig P239 9mm, DAO pistol I purchased new in 1997. I recently passed the 9000 rounds mark with it. I have shot all kinds of 9mm ammo, even some hot military M882 ammo. It has never (that's right, NEVER) malfunctioned; no failures to fire, no failures to eject, no stove-pipe, no problems at all. I replaced the plastic recoil guide rod with a metal one from Sig (free of charge) at 4000 rounds; also replaced the recoil spring at that time. I also put Hogue finger grips on it; the factory plastic grips were too slick. Other than this, all original parts. The double action pull has gotten better with use. When I go to the range and shoot, I usually shoot 250-300 rounds at one session and never clean it before I finish shooting. I have 6 factory magazines for it. I have owned several Sigs over the years, but this little gun is truly amazing. Probably at the range one day when I do get some kind of malfunction (if I ever do!), I probably will pass out from shock. This is my 1st post to this forum and I am curious if other members have similar stories about a 239. Thanks.
