I'm a revolver guy, at heart. I've been handling every semi auto handgun made over the last year and finally found one that "fit" my hand and my needs.
I've never spent so much time
trying to buy a firearm.
I added the Hogue slip-on grip.
Sig P228 "HiViz HiCap" variation. It came with two 13 round and two 15 round factory mags, plus a bunch of red and green sight inserts. I just bought it and won't have a chance to shoot it until this weekend.
I know a whole lot about very little and nothing about a whole lot.

Looks like a helluva nice little pocket pistol.

I'd need mighty big pockets to fit this in.
This is the same size as a P229.

Yep, the 228 was only offered in 9mm.

Sorry, it looked little in the photo.
Buy bigger pants!

Good choice...
I have a 229 .40 that's a joy to shoot.
Nothing so needs reforming as other people's habits. Got to have a Jones for this

Very nice pistol. You should get along well.
