[QUOTE=wizard; Very good shooter and very contolable for its size.![/QUOTE]
Two reasons why I went with this one ... Too many bad reviews on a few others , price was a bit more ha ha
Just saw one for the first time this week. Great feel! Thinking about picking one up for my wife.
Ok I put 60 rounds of some target ammo & an additional 12 rounds of better self defense rounds down range this afternoon. I had 3" groups at 5-7 yards and 4" groups at 8-10 yds. The jacket hollow points produced better groups than the FMJ ammo (slightly). This gun had no noticeable recoil that a lot of folks complain about with the pocket guns. It was a joy to shoot, even though I took other handguns I could have shot this one the whole time, I know this would not be your typical range / target pistol but if it was your only one to take you wouldn't be disappointed. I had two friends and my two sons with me they all shot it and all hit a 6" instant feed back targets at both distances mentioned above, I say this so that you would know it is a pretty accurate gun right out of the box . Trigger pull was the biggest thing to get used to but negligible after a few magazines had been used. Both my buddies were looking for a small concealable handgun and both will be getting this same one, by the way they both own .380 's now so that should tell ya something as well. I know there are a lot of good pistol mfgs. Out there and many good .380's but if your looking at getting the P238 and you have the dough I cannot recommend it highly enough.
Thanks for the info. I will pass it on...Glad you are happy with your purchase!
Outstanding choice of pistol. I confidently predict you are going to love it. I have my wife's in my right front pocket in a Desantis Nemessis holster as I type this.
I like it the best of all the tiny .380s. I also have an LCP, and it isn't going anyplace, but I shoot the P238 so much better the difference is remarkable.

Thanks for the info. Currently own two Firestorm .380s; seems like the P238 will be a good augment to the team.
