Had a P225 and sold it. Stupid move. Hard to find now. Have never owned or fired a P228. Am thinking a new or used P228 might be easier to find than a used P225. Not counting ammo capacity, is there anything about the P228 that makes it a superior CCW to the P225? Carry ammo will be standard pressure 9mm (probably Federal Nyclad). Thanks!

Both great guns. I'm looking for either one myself. Already having the 226 I can use the same mags in the 228. However, I sure like the looks of the 225 and with the slim grip my wife would could probally handle it a little easier. I just might have to get both. You can still find new in the box 225's at gun shows(here in TX)
Good luck!

I love my P225. They are not at all hard to find used, there are a bunch of used (very good cond) P225's right now at K-Y Imports for $329. This is what I paid for mine and is a good deal IMHO. Better hurry, they don't have very many.
Rather than forking out the $$$$$ on a P228 check out the Dlask D-394. Josed Dlask, a former engineer with CZ, is making a P228 clone in Canada, you can even use P228 mags and parts in it. I did find the thin, cheap, plastic grips, not to my liking, but at $249 NIB from SOG I think I can over look this one fault. If you want one with a steel frame you will have to wait, it will not be released until the end of the year.
