The overall length of the piece is just 5.9,” and it sports a 3″ barrel. Some people don’t like the thumb safety, and if you’re not into that, you won’t like this gun. There is an ambidextrous thumb safety and magazine release. Without the extension, the gun wants to jump out of your hand. The basic magazine holds six rounds and is flat. It has a pinky extension which I find essential in getting a firm grip on the gun. I always use the extended 7-round magazine, as shown in the photo above. It looks and feels and fires like a miniature 1911. It feels like a natural extension of your body.

The service said the new pistol should be chambered in no less than. The Army had just put into service two new rifles (the M1895 and M192), and they wanted a self-loading pistol to go along with them. Its history dates back to the 1890s when the US military used several revolvers as sidearms. That’s right, well over 100 years ago, back in 1911. Guess when the 1911 pistol was developed and came onto the market. Then I explain the reasons to them like I’m about to explain them to you now. An ambidextrous safety makes the P938 easy for left- and right-handed shooters.“Why?” they’ll ask. Fans of the 1911 will find the thumb safety, magazine release and slide stop lever in familiar places.
