i have a Glock23 .40cal works great but it's not quite a "conceal
carry" size. I have it (unloaded and trigger locked) in my survival
pack that stays in my airplane incase of an emergency landing in the
back country ;-)
i'm also a Progressive Libtard (registered independent) that thinks
we should ban assault rifles and large magazines just as we have
banned hand grenades, bombs, rocket launchers and other military
style/grade weapons. I've had my Hunter's safety card since I was 12
and I also went to high school next to Columbine in CO. My younger
sister had friends who died in the attack.
2 cents.

It wasn’t just the backstrap that bothered me. Mostly the diamond
pattern just didn’t feel good in my hands. I just did a bit of
looking now though and it looks like there are some options for
fixing that. I might have to look into them again. I really
like the Sig P938 so far though.
I missed your comment about Glock fanboys. Shocking we haven’t
had any so far but the thread devolved into politics from a
simple question of what brand/model of pistol we like. For the
record, I’ve yet to meet a Glock that I’d want to own.

XDS has replaceable grip backstraps.

Sig P938 is 9mm and almost exactly the same size as a P238. I’ve
got the SAS model (anti snag). I’ve also got a S&W M&P Shield in
9mm and have looked at the Springfield XDS many times. I just
can’t get over the fact that I don’t like the grips on the XDS.
Prime reason to go with the XDS is that you can get it in 45ACP.
There are a lot of cheaper brands out there too.
If you have a place where you can do it, go and test fire all the
different options. My father-in-law bought a Glock 36 because
several people told him how great they were. The problem is that
it doesn’t fit his hand well at all and the trigger digs into his
finger so he shoots terrible with it. His accuracy is greatly
improved using my M&P Shield.
No matter what you get though. A major key to carrying it safely
is practice and being comfortable with it.

That was one thing I forgot to mention with the P238.. it has a
manual safety as well, if that's important to you. I personally
don't really care, but it's another good point.

A lot of people are carrying a gun that has no safety. The
safety is released by squeezing the trigger, essentially. I
have kids, and although I plan to keep my gun far away from
them, I cannot on a clear conscience carry a gun with no
safety. I have been considering a revolver. My bro has a CC
and he recommends something smaller, so it doesn't jab you in
the side whenever you sit down. I am still looking for the
right gun for a CC. I've already had a gun pulled on my at a
job.

I am getting my CC permit (Florida) in a week or so. I took
an absolutely excellent class from the main trainer at the

Now, I am looking for an excellent CC gun to use, as my long
barrel Colt 38 is not a good fit for that.
I am certain that this group probably has a LOT of expertise
(and many opinions) on THE gun to use.
