I had a SIG 239 .40S&W in the past. Originally, I had planned to buy a 229, but I found the grip was too big for my hand. Under recommendation of sales, "239 should be fine, even woman could hold it."..... although I still felt the grip was big, but should I admit my hand being smaller than a woman? So I bought it. It's a solid gun. But after shooting a few boxes, I felt uncomfortable with the size of the grip so I sold it later. If I remembered right, it's $500-$600, super range performer. 228/229 should not be too far away. I always prefer SIG over Glock. The only shortcoming is the grip size.
