I purchased a new Sig P238 for a new pocket gun for myself. The wife decided to fiddle with it and decided it was hers...

I had looked at the PM9 and the P380 before I had grabbed the P238. The PM9 was a big step up in price at the shop I was in at the time, and I liked the idea of the P238 being a new Mustang.

The P238 was a great shooter, and the lightest recoil of any .380 I have ever tried in the past. I fired about 150ish rounds though it, and it performed great. I could not bring myself to just buy another P238, variety is the spice of life!

I was then given permission to go get myself a new pocket gun, so after a trip to a show I found myself a brand new PM9 for 600. I looked at several different options, I almost got a P380 but when I found the PM9 for the price I couldn't pass the option for a small 9mm.

Here are some comparison shots.

Welcome aboard.

Quick suggestion. Don't let your wife play with your PM9, unless you want your Sig back.

I let her actually, but she can hardly work the slide. That is why she likes the P238 it is very easy to function.

If I had the choice she would have a Double Action, but she likes hers now and that is really the most important thing.

I am going out to my parents land and plan to break in this bad boy!

Welcome to KahrTalk!

Best of luck with your new Kahr.

The title of your thread faked me out as I thought I'd be reading about an actual theft. Read right past the first word "Wife". Being married I know how it works... wife says... "What's yours is mine and what's mine is mine,you got a problem with that?" :)

Welcome to Kahrtalk, and congrats on the PM9. My wife has a P238, and comparing it to my PM9, the 238 is only slightly smaller than my PM9. Too bad my wife has trouble manipulating the slide on the PM9, but she loves her 238. I even got her some red & gray grips (they look pink, though) for her 238 from Larry Davidson:

I was going to buy myself some new grips for the P238, but she wants it stock for now.

You got the better end of that deal.
