Thread: 9mm ultra compacts aka pocket rockets, what say ye?

Ahh ok got ya, it was late and I probably took it wrong lol. If you ever need anything you cant find let me know, I have some great suppliers that treat me very well and I get great prices
. I don't mind helping out a fellow SRP member

Monday I pick it up!!

Lets compare physical sizes of my personal CCW's:

Top left clockwise: Glock 26 in 9mm, Kimber 1911 Ultra CDP II in .45acp, Sig Sauer P938 in 9mm, and Smith & Wesson 642 stainless in .375



As you can see, the "footprint" of the pistols are in order: 1911, 642 revolver, Baby Glock, and the Sig 9mm. Note how insignifigant the sizes really are. I aligned the pistols with a box of cereal from the back side and the overall difference in length was less than 1/2". The big difference in them was the length of the grips, the 1911 and revolver have grips right at 1" more grip area/length. This is a pretty good difference when it comes to CCW.



As you can see, there isn't a lot of difference between the Glock 26 and the P938. The big difference is in the hand, the sig loaded feels lighter than the glock empty (no mag either).

I have only gotten to do a function check/shooting of the Sig so far, but it chewed through a 50 round box of 115 gr Remignton FMJ's and about 25 rounds of WInchester white box bulk 115 gr FMJ's flawlessly. At 50 yards I noted that I could keep all rounds inside a 8.5" x 11" sheet of paper offhand...so accuracy is just fine for a ccw weapon. SOmething else I noted with the Sig is that the nightsights are really bright, brighter than the Kimber (which I thought were bright) and the Glock (which were never impressive in the first place). The sig is NOT uncomfortable to shoot like I had heard, actually it's not bad at all. Maybe it's the factory rubber grips or whatever, but I could shoot it as comfortably as the Glock.

Overall impression, as long as it keeps up the reliability, I can see that this lil guy being a keeper and a good summer carry weapon.

Yep, it's been a keeper. I wouldn't trade for my lil Sig! I've had it almost 4 years now and it shoots dirty, anything I put in it, and is amazingly accurate for a pocket rocket!

Anybody out there tried the sub compact Sig 320. It shoots very well and really not that large or heavy.

I love my sig pistols. Fantastic guns!!
