There’s a touch of overtravel and some minor stacking. It’s better than some (e.g., Beretta 92). It usually puts a sly “f_ck you” kinda grin on my face when I’m outshooting everyone else’s Glock 19s, M&Ps and XDs at my local range. But, I can say that is definitely the exception, not the rule. Especially because I know what the gun is capable of. If I’ve had too much coffee, if I haven’t shot in a while, if I’m shooting ammo that’s not in its sweet spot in terms of bullet weight and power factor… like I said… it’s not as forgiving. That said, the P239 has left me frustrated. The P239 can, and often does, outshoot everything.Īnecdotally, I’ve heard that the P239 is among the most mechanically accurate of all P2XX Sigs (which are, as rule, very mechanically accurate anyway) owed to its full-length frame rails (i.e., there’s no break in the rails, as with a P226, P228 or P229). I’ll bring it to the range with a Hi Power, a 92… whatever. I can literally shoot the numbers off a silhouette at 10 yards with a P239. It hangs in there with my Beretta PX4 and my Sig P245. I’ve shot some of the tightest groups I’ve ever shot with my 2006-vintage P239 in 9mm. Time and again, the P239 blows my mind in terms of its accuracy. But-a combat pistol though it may be-it’s not quite as stable and forgiving as a bigger service pistol. It’s nothing that would preclude its utility as fighting handgun. If you grip it too hard… if you tense your support hand as the trigger breaks… if you engage the trigger at too much of an angle… you’ll see it on the paper. And if you f_ck it up… well, that’s on you. It doesn’t presume to tell you what to do with the recoil impulse. It doesn’t funnel your hand into a specific position or posture. It’s like a car with a firm suspension: you feel the road, but in a good way. And it communicates-through every facet of your hand. The recoil is brisk, but not sharp or hard. Your distal joint comes up naturally against the wall-which is firm and distinct.
