On both I have trouble reaching the DA trigger, small hands. They make a "set-back" trigger for them so I'm not the only one without big German hands. I like the 228 too, it is just stamped and welded slide ends, more old school. Basically same gun as 229. Welded ends wouldn't handle .40 S&W pounding so they developed the 229.
