| my ccw duty is approximately 50% p239 9mm and 50% p229 .357sig. Like the P229 more but often the size difference gives the P239 the edge |

Yes. A .40 that is my main carry. Love the trigger on the P239. |

| I've actually gone in the other direction with the P239... from 9mm to 357sig.... I have to say I love shooting the pistol in 9mm, not so much with those 357s.... but the 357 has a DAK trigger and I've actually decided I don't like it and am fixing to buy a P239 in 357sig with the basic SA/DA trigger and see if I can tame that any better. Point is you'll love that P239 in 9mm... put a Crimson trace laser grip on it and she will be pretty close to perfect....

| I carry my P239 in .40 in a Kangaroo Carry holster when I want deep concealment. Great pistol.

| I have 2, both chambered in .357 SIG. One stays in FL, one in MD. Can't carry in MD, but I like this gun so much I use it for home defense there, despite having several other pistols that can hold more rounds.

| My Two Tone P239 SAS Gen 2 SRT in 357Sig is my all time favorite. The LaserMax in it is also oh so sweet. My old P229 in 357Sig, also with a Lasermax, is my 2nd all time favorite. |

| I’ll carry my P239 from time to time. My variant is in 357 Sig. I’ve never felt limited by its capacity.

| I bought a 9mm, 239, when they first came out. Very concealable, and accurate, but, as I got older, didn't want to carry that much weight. In my 9mm "carry" guns, my Kimber Solo, and P365 are just as accurate as my old 239 was, and they weigh less. |

| I will say that for me shooting 357 Sig in the P239 is a handful.... especially with a DAK trigger.... I hope SA/DA will be a tad easier.... even though with crimson trace laser I can hit the target... Here is a short video of shooting both. https://www.youtube.com/watch?...u-4&feature=youtu.be

| Interesting discovery last night.... I was practicing dry fire drills... this is drawing from a 4 o'clock holster and taking aim and dry firing at a silhouette target about 10 feet way...per Front Sight's teachings.... My Sig P239 with the laser.... I don't have to use the sights or laser to instantly be set on the center of center mass... pistol aims perfectly
