I have never been to keen with micro pistols, full size always have been more to my liking. Even back in the day when I owned a few j frames their big brothers and sisters won out on the carry rotation. When I ride my Harley the thought of a carry weapon a little bit smaller has caught my interest for a while but with carpal tunnel in both my wrists from 24 years on a over the road truck , it has kept me away from the smaller carry pieces.
The other day a friend who is buying a house wanted to sell a few to help with a pad for the down payment. One of the ones was a P 938. My wife had a P238 for a while and I shot it ok but the recoil was a little sharp on my wrists so I never took a chance on the bigger brother. So took a chance I did and just got back from the range all that can be said is this should have happened years ago. I loved it. It was flawless in performance and shot well with all I fed it except the personal defense Hornady rounds. They printed a larger group but still combat accurate. Now I have to buy extra mags and a holster. It has the rubber grips on it so that might taken a little sting out of it. I would post pictures but I can’t seam to get that done on here for some reason, computers not being my thing. Finally a micro has won me over, hoping it’s the last one my bank account doesn’t seam to stretch as far as it used to
I have experienced the same when riding my Harley. I believe in carrying on my body and it was just too much trouble between the wind exposing my weapon and the concerns over it falling out of my holster. I pocket carry and the smaller handguns work best for me in this scenario.
What Harley you have? I ride a 2013 Road King. It is funny, my pickup truck of the same year has half the miles of my Harley. I love riding.
