I had a Sig 230 which was the predacessor (SP?) to the 232....only difference was mag release. I bet my life on it as a back-up weapon to my duty pistol. I have shot and owned a Walther PPK/S but they are natorious for bite in the web of your thumb....need a band-aid. Glock 26 are nice, but in 9mm. I have a baby Taurus PT-22 (22lr) when nothing bigger will suffice.
What I have settled on as a civi, is a compact revolver......they always work and you can carry a larger cartridge in a smaller package. Currently I use a 5 shot .357mag Taurus 605S.

My Sig liked Cor-Bon +P JHP...they were almost the same energy as a standard 9mm....personally I see the 9mm as the absolute minimum in a gun fight. I've taken a 9mm and I'm still here with only a minor wound.
