[QUOTE="big green chopper, post: 3476509, member: 46480"] I have shot both. Own neither. That should tell you something. Of the two in question the p938 is superior in ergos and quality upon examination. Time on the range supported that conclusion with the kimber having numerous failures and poor groups. The 938 had zero malfunctions with the same ammo and groups were surprisingly good. Both are POOR CHOICES for primary EDC, especially for new shooters. They are both tiny snag machines, and while I am a fan of the external hammer, not with a tiny pistol. Its asking for trouble. For primary EDC find something you can make excellent groups with. Shooting a tiny pistol under stress when family and innocents may be danger close is in best case, a poor choice, and likely a dangerous choice unless you train extensively with one. If you gain enough experience (methodical, controlled, practice with some good training thrown in) then... you will have a much better ability to assess your ability and needs. It is not something you can web research, like consumers are programed to do. It may be that the gun that you shoot best IS NOT one you were even interested in. [/QUOTE]
