I'm considering picking up the Extreme at some point for carry and range. Where do folks that own this gun get the mags? I'm finding it hard to locate seven rounders easily. Thank you.

Sweet....thank you! 
I just polished the flats on my 2 tone. You can see pictures here. I love the P938; I have 4.

Wow....very nice. Quick question, how's cleaning the P398? One of the things that has kept me away is possibly damaging the extractor when putting the slide back. What was it like your first time trying to clean the gun? Was it a challenge until you got more familiar with it?

It's not too hard to strip for cleaning.
The recoil spring is much stiffer than the P238. Putting it back in takes some learning- one needs some strength. The ejector is very easy to deal with- I've never once had an issue with it. As you slip the slide onto the rails, just push it down so the slide can ride over it. The other trick is the slide stop... some folks have a difficult time reinserting it. I tend to retract the slide slightly, slip the post through the cam hole on the barrel, then one can pull the slide back so the notch is all lined up nicely.
It's a very nice little gun. I love mine.

Good advice, gentlemen, thank you. Now if I can ever find it in the shop again...I'm still waiting to get the PPS...

The P938 makes a good range gun?
It's a better range gun than any other small pocket 9mm. Hogue rubber grips really tame the recoil. Accuracy is as good as you and the sights can do. Speaking of which the sights are pretty darn good for a small pocket gun.
The PPS is better but won't fit in some short trouser pockets. Also it comes in .40.
They are both fine for the range but that shouldn't be THE reason to buy one.
Mystro, I never tire of looking at your box elder burl grips from highfiguregrips.com.

I appreciate all the comments. I have a number of big guns but I think now I'm gravitating towards small carry choices and revolvers more...not sure why at this point in my life. While I know that the guns aren't primarily used at the range, the only way to get good at using the firearm is by actually firing it and often. So, I do want it to be comfortable to shoot for long periods and that's why I'm getting the PPS 9mm the 640 pro, and hopefully soon, the Sig 938. Thank you for all the feedback.
