Of the three, the Sig P238 is the softest recoiling, and most accurate of the lot. When you do the Sig Sauer P238 HD, it’s even less due to a heavier frame. It also shoots only in single action and must carry it Condition 1. No reliability issues for mine, at all. I can easily hit 25 yard steel plates
with it. Handles hot ammo like +P like a champ.
I had a Glock 42. Recoil was moderate but not painful. The original sights are better than a P3AT and it took time, but I could hit out to 25 yards with it. It’s very thin and light. It would be my second choice. I can do a prolonged range session with it. Handles Buffalo Bore +P like a champ.
The P3AT is the thinnest and recoil is STOUT. I don’t like the trigger, either. The sights suck. I’d shoot it no further than 10 yards. I don’t care for it.
But of the 380s the Bersa Thunder has the least recoil of all. To me, the Walther PPK S has very light recoil but I’m only good out to 15 yards these far (right out of the box). It has a nice balance and weight, but it’s bigger than most modern 9 mm micro carry pistols, these days.
