Scored a NIB P239
^^ Thank you for all that, very cool! The 239 I’ve got coming is a SAS, DA/SA, Nitron gun. I’d like to get my hands on some of those 8rd mags!

Congrats on a great pistol, in a great caliber.

My Gen 1 9mm P239 SAS is one of the few I regret selling, out of MANY I've sold.
Carried it for 2 years..
I mudded the shit out of it (with CCR's help) and sold to buy more Glocks.
Still own the Glocks though, but that is another thread... Big Grin

Excellent score. Priced a bit high. But as you say, no longer being made. I love my P239. They are great shooting pistols.

I'm sure you will tire of it right away. Let me know when it reahes the "classifieds" section.

An absolutely fantasic pistol. Too bad Sig is into all the plastic crap.

I bought some through the site below a while back. IIRC they were under $40 then though. They show to have mags for all three calibers in stock.

I’m excited for this one… I paid a premium for it, well average I suppose for what it is. Anyway. My new precious will be here Tuesday. It’s a brand new, P239 SAS in .357Sig… box, mags, the whole shebang. I’m giddy so I thought I’d share. Smile


Congrats.
I would love to own one.

Congrats! The P239 is one of my favorite pistols and an everyday carry gun. You will love it!

Congrats! I love my P239. I was lucky enough to score one back in the day from Dan's Ammo.

All the plastics fanatics say the 239 is old, obsolete, heavy and out dated. I have 2, both in 9mm, worked flawlessly for 20 + years. Wouldn't trade them for anything.

I get that, I fall into both camps. My first piece was a G19 back in 1990. Shortly followed by a P229. I can appreciate most all firearms. Never really warmed up to revolvers though. In my opinion, a good shooter can shoot accurately regardless of the gun characteristics….for the most part.

My TT P239 SAS Gen 2 in 9mm was the first Sig I bought. 2009 or so I think. Love that pistol. Unfortunately for me, my wife loved it more.

Well she arrived today, new in the box. Here it is in all its splendor:



Thanks for all the comments, etc.

P239 superb piece of firearms design and production. I too just bagged a superb deal on a P239 in 357 sig. P239 and 357 sig, a match made in heaven.

Real nice ! I bought the p239 .40 I found thanks to you guys turning me on to mag availability at MWG. I ordered 5 mags. I put 200 rounds thru it Sunday. Very easy shooting accurate .40. It was just plain fun. Not sure I will carry it much as my G27 is just so much smaller and lighter but I will still get some good quality leather in case I want to carry it once in a while.
Now the hunt for a .357 barrel.
I think its safe to say that due to this thread I have rediscovered the P239

I like the 40 over the 357 Sig. I like the heavier projectile for animal deterrent and I like the lower more throaty sound of the 40.

I have all three of the barrels for my 239.

But it wears the 40. Sweet firearm.
