HOME ON THE RANGE Sig Sauer P238 vs S&W .380 EZ

By MARJ LAW

Two favorite .380s for “Wow! That’s easy to manage!” are Sig Sauer’s P238 and Smith & Wesson’s .380 EZ. It has been a while since I’ve taken them both to the range and I decided to see which gun is better. Several friends have the little Sig.
