    Yeah,

    It's essentially for those with CCW only. Like my Kimber Micro Carry.
    Doubt many others would want it.
    Not a FUN 9mm pistol for the range and/or plinking?

      Thanks, it's down to the SIG P938 BRG w/ extra extended mags. Trying to stay away from the .380 pistols. The Sig 938 should pair well with a CZ 75 Compact.
      I'm not sure on how the BRG pocket carries with the Hogue soft rubber grip. I usually do not prefer to pocket carry a pistol with that grip material. The rubber can be very sticky so when you draw the pistol, the friction of the sticky rubber grip can get stuck on your pocket liner which can sometimes result in a failure to have the holster remain in the pocket. Then you pull out a gun and holster all together. Even worse is sometimes the pistol itself gets stuck in the pocket. These two issues vary depending on the type of pocket material and design(depth, width, ect.). The soft rubber grip will be more pleasant for target practice and extended use, but a harder material will not be punishing under a self defense situation and the speed and reliability of the draw could be a life or death difference.

      I changed the factory rubber grip on my S&W 442 to a hard nylon full sized plastic grip that gives me a better grip on the gun, but none of the sticky draw backs of the factory grip. It's perfectly fine to shoot 20 rounds through but after that its painful!

      I only carry 3 guns. A G43 with a Pearce +1 pinky/mag extension for 7+1 and two back up 8 rds in an opposite pocket. Or a P229R IWB or P226R OWB with a backup mag in the other pocket. Now that I got the 938, once I get some more trigger time on it, it will replace the G43. I'll be at 7+1 and two backup 7 rd mags, but I can live with -2 rounds difference considering all the bonuses of the P938 over the Glock. I do not reccomend the promag 10 round magazines or anything made by them for that matter. I have never owned a reliable promag, magazine.

        Unless you're willing to pay an off-roster premium AND be a guinea pig, I would wait a while longer before buying a P365. I say that as someone who did pay the premium and has had to send it back once already (for a month) & is debating whether to send it back again due to ammo sensitivity (extraction issues with Walmart range ammo). If it wasn't such a pleasure to shoot I would have sold it long ago...
