I would if it was the flat stock, but I doubt it is since they just changed to those about a month ago

new spring for the P238 just showed up from fedex, in fact they sent me a 3 pack. HUGE difference...here is a side by side. the smaller of the two is the older spring which got kinked during firing. i straightened it out as best i could, but the new spring should be much better. the slide releases with much more authority now. i would recommend anyone that has a P238 call and request new recoil springs. The new part number from Sig is 1201321 "Recoil Spring, 238, Flatwire"

Finally got a chance to go to the range with the new recoil spring. 100 rounds fired with no failures at all. would have shot more but that's all I had for .380

Just bought mine last weekend. Love this gun. Goes almost everywhere with me and fits how ever I try to carry it. Shoots flawlessly so far as well.

I own a P238 Bitone with about 450 rounds through it. I have not had any issues. I used to have only 1911s so the BOA was not something I had to adjust too. I carry mine in a crossbreed mini-tuck and I almost forget it is there half the time. I find it to be as accurate as I can be with it (it could out perform me). My brother has an LCP and I would go with the P238 any day. The only problem I have ever had was with one of the mags. The welds on the bottom broke, but Sig gave me an RMA number and replaced it. The night sights are nice and overall the little gun feels solid.

I also got one of the Liberty editions just because I thought it looked really nice, but I don't plan to shoot it... just keep it as a display piece.

had (2) P238 for several months. Never a single problem. Wanted something a bit beefier and now have a PM9 & MK9. The P238 is an accurate little thing .... more accurate than I can ever be.

I bought one of Rusty's though now I sold it. It shot great, no problems but I didn't need two of them so I sold Rusty's. Mine is rosewood, shoots great. About 800 rounds now, no failures. I love the little thing.
