the 938 is a great pistol, but you should handle one to insure you can rack the slide. My wife is petite, and she can handle the Sig P238 with no problem. Much easier for her to rack the P238 than the P938.
Low to no recoil compared to the Ruger or Kel Tec 380’s too.
Hope this doesn’t start a .380 is bad war, but if you can’t manipulate your weapon, a larger caliber does you know good.

In another life I owned three 380s. The operation on two was recoil and one had blowback operation. I was surprised that the blowback system was harder to hold as it slapped the hand pretty hard. On the recoil system 380s, the kick was smooth and easier to control.

Ergo, my recommendation is to get a recoil system and keep it. Don’t sell them like I did.... now I’m crying.
