I had two questions regarding the Sig P238:
First, are they ok to dryfire? Sig's FAQ says yes, although I don't think it's been updated since that model was released (there's a general statement about most models except rimfires being ok to dryfire, at least occasionally). However, a guy who works at the Sig factory was at my LGS when my friend was there and the Sig employee apparently admonished everyone not to dry-fire the P238's. I don't know if the employee didn't mention why or my friend didn't catch the reason, but does anybody have an answer on this?
Also, has anybody had the opportunity to shoot multiple P238's? The 5-7 that I've dryfired (see question 1) have all had very different trigger pulls. 2-3 had what I would call good triggers, 3 had fairly heavy, gritty triggers and one (an HD) had a horrendous trigger - the DA trigger on my Smith feels lighter and smoother. Is there a reason for what seems like horrible inconsistency in the triggers?
