I walked into Academy ready to purchase an Ruger LCP, saw the little P238 and came home with it instead. My cousin, after seeing mine went back to Academy & bought one too. Recoil was mild as stated, and accuracy was great out to 15-20 feet. Great little pistol. I also picked up some wood grips for it off fleabay. It gave the gun a slightly thicker profile, which helps me b/c I have bigger hands. If I could only find some more ammo now....
I think it was around $450 at academy. The black nitron model.
