I suppose this may belong in the Pistols section but I'm not asking question, just gloating a bit. Finally after a few years of divorce I have a bit of extra money. Been carrying a Shield for a while but not super happy with it. Picked this up this morning. Very happy.

Congrats on the purchase. You'll love it when you go to shoot it. My 938 Scorpion has been flawless.

Congrats! Neat color. Be sure to lube it. P238s are entirely devoid of lube out of the box.

My P238 had a few cycling issues over the first hundred rounds, but has been perfectly reliable since. I now have 900+ rounds through it.

An easy way to lube the sear: With the slide off the frame, and the hammer cocked, the hammer intercept notch is easily accessible, and lube can be applied to it. Then, put the slide onto the frame and repeatedly position the hammer between the intercept notch and full cock. That'll transfer lube to the sear and the full cock notch.

To clarify, it's a P938. I will lube it. I love the look of this. Every gun I've owned has been black until now.

Great little gun!

Ran a box of ammo through a buddies 938. No failures of any kind, accurate, easy to manipulate the controls, and high quality.
Congrats!

Oops, and I own both. Should have noticed. Oh well, both are awesome and accurate.
