For you pistol nuts

Range report number 2-

Took the sig down to the range today and put it's first 150 round through it. (In addition to 50 rounds through a couple 9mm rentals - will get to that in a sec)

In short, it was fantastic! Not a single misfeed or any other shooting problem. Only issue I had is that the slide didn't lock back once on an empty mag, though I hear that's an issue for the first couple hundred rounds till it breaks in a bit.

I was shooting mainly at 5, 7, 10 and 15 yds and shot fairly accurate with it. That the sig is on the heavier side, it made the snappy .40 cal feel like I was shooting a 9mm.

The gun performed just as I remembered, if not better since this was actually my pistol. I enjoyed it thouroughly!

I also shot a couple of glocks in 9mm and did not like either. I believe it was the glock 23 as well as the subcompact glock in 9mm. Trigger pull and actual firing of the gun was fine, just uncomfortable in my hands.

Also shot a Smith & Wesson M&P 9mm which I did like. Nice and accurate, light and would be a great CC weapon. My only complaint was the trigger which lacks a bit of feedback - kind of mushy if you get what I mean.

In the end - 200 rounds downrange, 150 through the Sig and I loved every shot. Now to work on my breathing and accuracy. I was shooting about 2" groups at 5yds, 3" grps at 7, 4-5" grps at 10, and 4-7" grps at 15yds. Not great, but I suppose not bad either.

Now to clean it and looking forward to going back.
