Here is a pic of my wife's sig





She really likes it but can not hit the side of a barn as she shoots right but is left eye dominant. I am buying her a Crimson Trace laser this week as they are running a $50 rebate on all lasers sold between April 2 and June 30th.

Mike,

I too am right handed but left eye dominant. I simply hold handguns such that the sights line up with my left eye.... doesn't affect accuracy at all. Now with rifles it's different of course.....

Thanks bald1. We are going to try and get to the range this weekend, but we have been saying that for the last couple of weeks.

I have seiously been contemplating one of these. However, I am just not fond of .380. If, for some reason, the Kimber Solo I have coming in the near future doesn't work out, I may go ahead and get one.

I've been thoroughly satisfied with mine, and the odds are that you would also. With warm loads that aren't that far behind the 9mm, so it should do the job if I do mine.

There are a few potential caveats, but it's a quality little piece that shoots very easily.

Default Correction on the Crimson Trace rebate.

The current rebate does not include the P238 laser.

I purchase one today anyway as I feel that my wife would shoot more confidently with it. When I am a way from home I want to make sure if she has to use it she can put one on target.

I wholeheartedly agree with the positive comments. I bought two of these because I was so impressed. Reliable, accurate, fits my hand well, great sights, great trigger, VERY easy to conceal and nowadays the .380 SD ammo is much improved over just a few years ago.

It's probably the ONLY pocket gun I would ever carry cocked and locked. I carry it in a DeSantis Nemesis holster and don't think it's possible to come off safe accidentally.

The 238 has also been high up on my wish list

So as noted I purchased a CT laser for the wife and her Sig as before she could not hit the side of a 67 story building.

Here is the CT on the Sig:



And here are her results, her hits are all the small holes on the right.



I am soooo happy with the results and she is so much more confident. The best $200 I have ever spent.

Mike

PS: Also bought her a knife to match her gun.

The P238 is a great little weapon. My wife and I both have one. Actually I bought myself the first one and my wife liked it so much she claimed it, so now I have two. It's very accurate and a lot of fun to shoot. My keltec 3AT now rests in the safe.
