You got it. I do favor the 228. In fact I feel it's the best SIG out there (for me.) 13 rounds, (hicaps) best grip of the lot (and all SIG grips are great!) accurate as hell (like all SIGs) and reliable. Mine's still on order. I'm getting REAL antsy.

The 239 is a great piece. I personally don't like it only because of the grips: That's a subjective observation, everyone will be different there. It's considered one of the best concealable SIGs on the market along with the 232, but it has the larger caliber. If memory serves, it also has the SS slide, so the heavier slide helps control recoil (a little, anyway.) Is hers a 9 or a .40?
