Sig-P238 VS Glock 42
mstreddy,
I see you shoot both the Sig P238 & Glock 42, so I have a question for you.
After reading all these threads on 380 autos, I have the itch to bring one home.
All testers have mentioned having to use a "snappier" load for the G42.
Is the felt recoil much "snappier" with a load that functions well in the G42 as opposed to a load that functions well in the P238?
My definition of "functions well" would be no FTF, FTE, stovepipes and good accuracy.
Thank you,

OK, so I packed up for the range last night, got my bag ready, mags, ammo, guns. One thing to test is the Glock 42 with more of the Promo 2.8 loads. I brought some other guns for the fun shooting portion and for a buddy's daughter to try.
So, a bit of a heavy range bag.
Get to the range, start setting up, pull out G17, Beretta 92, mags, Ruger GP100, ammo, Sig 238, 380 ammo, G42 -- wait, where is the Glock?
Not on this side of the bag, not on the other side, not here, nope, there either...
Guess what Did NOT make it into the bag?
Yep, the test subject.
