I have lee loader in several rifle calibers and it is my preferred method for small batches. I don't think I could be happy with one for pistol caliber though for very long.
Bought a p238 for the wife awhile back, and while I can't comment on the others, the sig is awesome. Not having any problems with it whatsoever, wish I would have bought it for myself!

Thanks everyone, some good suggestions, some I hadn't considered. She has mentioned the 243, apparently had some experience with it in the past, I have none. Kudos on the recoil table, had forgotten...

Well, I think the whole idea behind open carry law was to not make felons out of someone who's weapon became unconcealed. Doesn't bother me to see someone open carry, and I doubt a criminal would...

I always wanted a 742, and a couple of years ago, a friend gave me a call and said his wife wanted to sell hers. 75 vintage I believe, with almost a full box of shells they had purchased with the...
