One thing I found out with the Sig 238 and 938 is that they need to run a bit wet, I use a gun grease on the slides and attachment points and have no problems. Sig provides grease with their guns for this reason. I have seen many times that people having FTE's was user error and not the gun, soon as they stopped limp wristing it then the issues disappeared.

I break in all my 9mm with 124 gr ammo these days, puts a bit more of a workout on the recoil spring, plus it helps that I re-load so it is not problem making 500 rounds for this purpose...

The Sig 238, in my opinion, is the best 380 on the market. It has managable recoil and even those with weak hands are able to rack the slide. If there is a downfall it is that the trigger is a single action only which means cocked and locked. The 938 is about 3/4 of an inch longer and is chambered in 9mm, a better and less expensive round. The 938 recoil is amazingly managable for such a small gun and easily hidden, I had some come into inventory and liked them so much I bought one for myself and it is now my daily carry gun. One thing to look for if you go that route is find the model with the rubber grips, it absorbs the recoil more and has finger grooves. The extreme and nighmare model grips felt a bit sharp to me. Like others have mentioned if you find somebody who has one grab it quick, we have one left in stock and I am waiting to hear back from 2 regular customers who are considering it, we give our regular customers first shot at hard to find handguns such as this.....
