Great minds think alike. Picked up a 239 in .40 S&W Friday . . .

Way Cool! Can't wait to fire mine.

The paddle holster it comes with . . .

I picked up the Sig holsters for my 232 and 226 and really love them - so ordered one for the 239 this morning.

I love the night sights!

Crap - I said that it had the Sig night sights, my 226 does but not this one. Has the Trijicon Night Sights installed.

Do you know if the .40 is reverse compatible with .357?

If so, game on :tu

Well then it's game on! Yes, you just need to pick up the barrel. You can also go to a 9mm but will have to pick up 9mm clips.

As you say - great minds - LOL

Big +1 love the gold dots in 180gr I wish I could afford a case of them in .357sig

Just a bit of caution on the sig holsters. IF they work like the blackhawk serpas, from a few people that have trained with them, they have told me that dirt/pebbles have prevented them from drawing a few times. So I've been told.

Ya' know I tell people all the time there is a reason Gun Leather has been made of Leather for over 200 years :D
Gun Plastic ???? .... That just aint right

I would never carry with plastic.

Leather all the way.

Competition shooting though.... different story all together :D

You know I love leather - from the King Ranch leather seating in my truck to the leather Vaja case for my phone, but there is a time and place for plastic sometimes. Here it's the retention factor and quick release. I do have leather for most of my guns - but will need you for two that don't have: the 1911 that my father-in-law carried in WWII and a long barrel 38 that a great grandfather carried in WWI. These are two special (to me) guns that require more than store bought leather - you know. I'm thinking I'd like to have their name and rank on the holsters also.

Re: My New Toy - 2 for 1

Nice! I have the 239 in 9mm.

My 226R is .357/.40 and 229 in .357/.40

I'll sell all of my other guns before I sell my Sigs!
