Rami Love
« on: June 08, 2017, 04:38:36 PM »
My 9 mm Rami decocker is my first love.  But I confess that I have been searching for almost a year for a Sig P238 with an ambi safety to replace a Ruger LCP Custom, which I detest.  I finally found a P238, brand new, old stock off the shelf.  I can't wait to get it!  I'm hoping it gives my Rami a run for the money for my affections.

Please let us know, because I too am interested in the Sig I have been looking at the 225A1, 238 and 239.
I couldn't resist the temptation of the RAMI at the price point compared to the Sigs.

I am curious of what you think, too. I just bought a Ruger LCP II over the Sig P238 for pocket carry. Half the cost and lower weight won out, but I still love the feel of the Sig. I've considered trying the P938 for IWB carry.

I carry my RAMI in a Ryan Grizzle IWB holster. I also have a Sig P938 which I either pocket carry or IWB carry. Occasionally I will pocket carry my wife's P238, if I need a slightly lighter package depending on what I am wearing.

Range Report:  I had two things going on at the range last night.  I haven't shot since Oct due to an injured shoulder that required surgery.  So I was rusty, on top of having a new gun to try.  I started cold with the new P238.  Ran a total of about 100 rounds through it.  It is a little snappy (it is a .380, after all), but not nearly as bad as the LCP.  For each mag the first few shots were a little wild and then I was dialed in at 5 yards by the last couple.  But the next mag and the next and the next were the same way.  I couldn't stay in a close pattern through the mag changes.  I am assuming more practice will solve that.  I like the size, the feel in my hand, it's my first manual safety and that seemed to be manageable.  All in all, a pretty good first experience with the Sig, and I already like it much better than the Ruger LCP Custom (which I detest).  But my Rami!  It took a mag or two to get back in the groove and I ran about 175 rounds through it.  3" patterns at 7 yards, consistently.  I could shoot that gun all day long!  After one trip to the range, my Rami is still my first true love.  The Rami is exactly perfect for me.  I'm still expecting to love the Sig P238......but it has stiff competition!
