Sig P938 BRG vs S&W CSX?
Have this BRG unfired after purchasing 3 years ago. Got sidetracked with another semi- name brand. Wondering if I need to trade the BRG for a CSX. Which would you want to keep? Quality difference? Not concerned with capacity differences...just quality build. Thanks in advance from a newbie just approved today. Thanks in advance to all who respond. Looks like a GREAT Forum!

They are incredibly similar firearms, to the point of being indistiguishable if you close your eyes and pick them up.
I have owned a P938 and spent some time with a CSX last month. Closing my eyes ... I said out loud that the CSX felt just like a P938.
Two flavors of the same popsicle, in my opinion.

Welcome to the forum.

You don't NEED to trade your gun, but you can if you want. The CSX will have more capacity, but one of the downsides I've seen is sometimes the texture pads on the S&W can fall off and need to be superglued back on. You also can't change grips on the CSX unlike the P938.

I've owned both. I didn't notice any difference in build quality. I preferred the trigger on the CSX, even though it has a sort of false reset. The trigger on the 938 I found heavier. The thumb safety on the 938 also irritated my knuckle, though that could be attributed to my grip.

In the end, neither outperformed my P365, so I got rid of both.

I dumped the CSX and kept my 938 BRG. The CSX slide cut my hand because of the lower axis. My P938 slide sits higher above the beaver tail and the web of my hand.The CSX is also bigger and heavier and I carry the p938 in my coat pocket.
Had no problems with the function of the CSX.

Thanks from KY to all who replied to my P938 vs CSX post. Decided to keep P938 & wait for a CSX “Performance” model. Great Forum, folks.

I had both for a short while, sold the CSX. With the added capacity, comfortable grip, and single action the CSX seemed like a no brainer. But, I never could shoot it accurately. I don’t know what it was but it was unique to that pistol. It is true that the trigger has an almost imperceptible reset, but you can deal with that with range time. The SA was not that bad. Never could figure it out.
