I currently use an XD9SC for CCW, but I have recently REALLY come to like the Sig p226. For me, I shoot it much better than my XD, shoots smoother, less felt recoil, etc.

My question is this: I know the 226 is too large for concealed carry under summer type clothing. But how about the p239?

How does the p239 compare in size to the xd9sc?

Anyone have both of these guns? How do you like the p239?

I'd recommend the P228.

I owned a XD9SC and sold it, really like the 228 better. I'm not a huge fan of the 239.

I love my P239 and carry it often.  I also own and P228 and it's a great gun but the single stack P239 is a narrower and conceals a little better.

I've never handled the XD compact so I can't compare it.

I was in the same boat.  I had a Glock for years.  Then I had the chance to put some rounds through a 228.  I like it for the reasons you stated.  I am sold on the Sig.
