Re: The Gun Thread

Well, thanks to CVD it didn't take long to make a decision. We met up at the range and spent some time shooting. After lunch I did some browsing and a little comparing. I "pulled the trigger" on something I liked. I now own a SIG Sauer P225. So far I haven't even shot it yet. But it had a feature I liked and the price was as good as I had seen so I picked it up.

The gun


The feature I liked:

It was hard to get a perfect picture, but the three green dots are the sights. I may not know where the target is but I certainly know where my gun is pointed! (they show up much better to the eye than the camera shows) SIGLITE night sights.

The P225 is no longer made but Bill's had a few left over. The replacement P229 is a bit lighter but I liked the way the P225 shot so I picked it up.

Thanks!

If I am disappointed, I have determined the solution to the problem is an another one (P226). I'm going to try and make it to Bill's after work tomorrow to get a few rounds off.

Re: The Gun Thread

I picked up a target plinker a few weeks ago from Kjeergards. Did the free mods.

Went there originally to pick up an SP2022 or one of these but they had no SP2022's and I didn't want to leave empty handed..So far I have over 550rds through it.

Re: The Gun Thread

Went to the store to pick up some ammo and ever since I seen 1quick4's saiga 12 I've been looking for one, couldn't find one, so I picked this up for now.

Saiga 7.62x39. Going to be putting a few things on it, 30 rd mags, different trigger, hand guard, hopefully rails and a scope for 'yote season! Still lookin' for a saiga 12 though.
