Gun Descriptions

The SIG Sauer P938 is a subcompact single-action pistol chambered for the 9×19mm Parabellum cartridge, manufactured by SIG Sauer and introduced at the 2011 SHOT Show.[1] A variant chambered for .22 Long Rifle was introduced in 2014. The P938, chambered for 9×19mm Parabellum, is a slightly larger version of the SIG Sauer P238 pistol, which is chambered for .380 ACP. Trigger pull for the P938 is listed at 7.5–8.5 lbf (33–38 N). A finger relief exists under the trigger guard. Grip panels are one of three kinds of wood, Hogue G-10 Extreme composite, or rubber wrap-around in the "Sport" model. The frame is metal, unlike many other subcompact 9 mm handguns. The frame for all P938 models is anodized aluminum alloy, and the slide is stainless steel either bare or with SIG's Nitron coating.

The Ruger® LC9s® Semi-Auto Pistol is a simple and instinctive pistol which utilizes a striker-fired mechanism with a short, light trigger pull. An integrated trigger safety and a manual thumb safety offer intuitive manipulation for safe handling, while a magazine disconnect and a loaded chamber indicator offer additional safety features, nearly eliminating the risk of an accidental discharge. The pistol's frame is constructed with glass-filled nylon with an aluminum insert, and the grip is checkered for a solid, non-slip hold and improved control. The slide is made from hardened alloy steel and boasts a slim, sleek profile for deep concealment. HiViz® fiber-optic sights deliver rapid, intuitive target acquisition in virtually any lighting. The lightweight, compact design of the Ruger LC9s and its superior reliability make it an ideal semi-auto pistol for concealed-carry. The Ruger LC9s uses all existing LC9® accessories including lasers, holsters, and extended 9-round magazines. Made in USA.
