P239 agree, a 239 9mm would do the job ( I am still kicking myself for letting mine go 2 years ago

For what you listed, I would agree that the 239 would be the closest. The P290 maybe a option but no SRT trigger and its is DAO. Some really dislike the single action heavy trigger.
Size wise with the specs you listed, I do not think SIG has anything that matches up. And I do not own a Shield nor do I like them. |

P239 is a lot heavier and a little bigger than a Shield. Awesome pistol though. I carry a 9mm 239 all the time.

P290 or 938
The 938 is SAO though. |

Why? What is wrong with your shield? Nothing.... other than caliber. My issued duty pistol is a 226 in 357 Sig. I'd like ammo interchangability and the same trigger pull as my duty weapon. Other than that I love my Shield |

It seems like a Sig 239 in .357 sig would work for you but I had one and got rid of it for a 229 in .357 sig. The 239 single stack was heavy and held limited rounds. The 229 was thicker but basically the same foot print as the 239 in length and height so why not more rounds for the 229.

Other than that I love my Shield I love my shield as well. But that considered, I wanna try a compact P320 with a subcompact grip module. At 12+1 rounds, it's plenty more capacity than my 7+1 or 8+1 shield. I'd like to give it a try anyways and see how comfy. |

In striker fired, I do like the P320--accurate, good trigger, versatile for changing the frame or caliber, and a pretty decent price. Mine is a compact and I have put on the subcompact frame for carry; you could go all compact for a shorter barrel if desired. DA/SA probably the P290 (I'd like to try out the Legion series) and for a 1911 style pistol try the P938. Several choices, I like my SIGs, so I'd say try all three.

290 is the closest in size. It's a solid gun, but it's DAO & a heavy trigger pull. They have models with G10 grips that help controlability a lot. Also a galloway trigger kit out there that's supposed to help with the trigger, haven't tried it myself though.
239 mentioned above. Great gun, but a lot bigger & heavier than your shield. 8rd mag seems small for the size of the gun. I still carry mine, but a lot less often lately in favor of better options. 320 subcompact. It's a double stack, so may not be what you want since it's thicker. Otherwise, this gun is nothing short of awesome. |

I wanted to like it, on paper seemed great. In person, way too heavy for what it was. Ended up with a 320 SC. Now if they would just make the 290 with the 320 internals..... |

239 is what you seek. Seriously consider the 320C though.

I will try to find a few to "fondle" and go from there If you're allowed, try the P320 and get two models, one for duty and the other for a BU and off duty carry. The grip modules are weird though for the different sizes. It's the total diameter and not the back strap that determines small, medium, and large. I'm a medium back strap pistol user and the P320 medium was too wide in my hands. Getting the small actually made it better for me and my groups went smaller making it easier to nail 50 yards with the RMR on it. |
