Okie, I would guess that he has after market grips on it. The only smooth "wood" grips from Sig are the rosewood with the gold medallions that I got. At least that I know of. If you get one, I am sure you will love it as much as the rest of us do. One thing to be aware of though.. the guide rod is 2 pieces screwed together. Some people have reported their guide rods coming apart. If yours starts to do this, do not just tighten it backup and figure that you can red Luctite it after you get back from the range. I noticed it on a Friday afternoon. Shot it that night at ladies night. Took it to the outdoor range that Sun. and put about another 150 rounds through it. Came home, took off the slide to Loctite the guide rod and the recoil spring went boing. The guide rod separated at some point and the rod part was gone. Sig is good and they are sending me a new guide rod and spring, free. The shipping is stupid slow though. It is supposed to get here on the 10th of April, 12 days after I called. They are killing me!

Thanks AGoyette for the heads up on the guide rod. I actually read about this fairly common minor issue with these guns just yesterday as I researched the P938 a bit. It's still a mighty attractive pocket gun, even with this little niggle.

Hope Sig hurries the parts to you. Even with slow freight, sounds like pretty good customer service from Sig.

Btw, I think the rosewood looks awesome! I hope you will update this thread with your continued experience with the P938.

Actually, I've had it for a while and I don't know it was not a model listed on Sigs site. Came with two mags and fiber optic front night sight, and regular night sights rear and Hogue rubber grips. Gun was too magnificent for black rubber, and although they were functional, it deserved a set of Mahogany grips. AGoyette is correct ...grips are after market.

The sigs are nice guns. I got a p938 to replace my lc9s about 2 months ago. Both are good guns but I like the feel of the sig better.

My wife is looking at getting a 238. I shot my buddy's new 238 on Saturday and liked it. Now I just have to get the wife out to take it for a test ride to see if she likes it.

Troll,
You might want to have her shoot the 938 too if possible. I have heard people say that the 938 is more comfortable to shoot than the 238. Something to do with how the gun recoils. I was looking at the 238 and was steered towards the 938 by my gunsmith and the guys at my LGS (who are also in my shoot club). A bunch of them have and carry the 938 and love it. After I bought mine, I found out a bunch of the guys I shoot with Tues. nights (USPSA) also have 938's and love them.
