Update: I put another 150 rounds through my Sig P938 today and I focused on improved sight picture, breath control, surprise break, etc. Amazingly, the accuracy problems went away! I shot about a 2" group on the dot at 7 yards which is great for me. No problems with this little pistol when the shooter does his job.siphonic wrote:As a federal firearms instructor who owns and carries a Sig P938 and instructs others on the duty issued P239, I can weigh in on the comparison. First of all, criticisms of the "accuracy" of the P938 are actually just insufficiencies in the practical marksmanship of the shooters. They are shooting low and left because this is a small weapon with a relatively heavy trigger, low weight, and slim profile, resulting in greater felt recoil and, in the general shooting population, a greater overcompensation for that felt recoil. The weapon, I assure you, is perfectly fine and does not shoot anywhere other than precisely where it is pointed when the bullet leaves the barrel. With sufficient training to avoid slapping the trigger (a mistake often exacerbated by transitioning for the first time to a firearm with an external safety, resulting in more rushing) and recoil management training (thumbs forward, snap caps, etc) this will not be an issue. I shoot a 300 qualification with the P938 just like my larger P229 DAK .40. Let's not blame the tool for our own poor performance. .
