Has anyone here ever shot the Sig P226 AND the Sig SP2022?
Ok... SIGs are very subjective. Here is my take and you can have it for free because it is technically worthless. SIG triggers are crap. But, if you like them, you like them. The mechanism uses a ton of tension in the spring hammer, so much so that it seems to make the entire gun tighten up. So to my hands, when the release point happens, it almost feels as if the entire frame releases within the slide. I personally find myself pulling shots to the left because I think with SIGs I use to much pressure pulling the trigger, being a lefty I pull shots left. They seem to be a touch trigger, like a 20' down hill bending putt at Augusta National. That being said... The 2022 trigger and it's predecessor 2009 Pro both have better triggers then the steel SIGs, they seem lighter and have less SPROING to them! I think you will be very happy with the 2022.

Gun Shops in PA
Near Philly there are tons of shops in area. I only know a few. Firing Line in South Philly, 1532 South Front Street Philadelphia, PA 19147-5518 Never been there but they tell me it's nice. Ready Aim Fire is directly west of you across Burlington-Bristol Bridge @ 5800 Elwood Avenue # F, Bristol Pa Then to be honest I would look for dealers using the gunbroker.com FFL search. Good way to find out of the way stores, the good local kind. http://www.gunbroker.com/FFL/DealerNetwork.aspx

I really need to find out where you all are shopping and stay the f away from there. I am too cheap to even pay the scrounger prices I find.

Ruger Gunsite Scout
Dan, I can finally see your pic here at home. U have the only gun that I think is really a Scout gun or the best option for the concept. Which model aimpoint is that? I was considering this the other day, a Trijicon w/ 3x power would make a fantastic scout scope. My question is do the work well with that much eye relief?

Press Release for A3807
So they altered "A semi-automatic rifle with a fixed magazine capacity exceeding [15] 10 rounds." ok... so they did not change at all... "Large capacity ammunition magazine" means a box, drum, tube or other container which is capable of holding more than 15 rounds of ammunition to be fed continuously and directly there from into a semi-automatic firearm." Then the statement at the end is just a statement. Everybody SHUTUP! Let them pass this...

Do you keep spare parts on hand?
Once again... I shoot a Glock... dont need spare parts or a spare gun. Losers.....

Ruger Gunsite Scout
The mini30, a min14 in 7.62x39 would qualify as a scout rifle.... if it did not suck it past 200yards in accuracy. I think the M1A Scout rifle is almost the ideal... beside the Steyr Scout. But you can see.... the $$$$$ starts adding up quickly.

Time for a new military sidearm
Ray... it is the GIENORMOUS magazine.... gigantic magazine is in the the 17rd 9mm Taurus 92s. The FN45 mags are sensible at 14rd and flush fitting. The 15rds have the rounded bottom piece. One more round, another .5 inch of handle. The 14rd mags were great. I would cap that gun at 14 for reliability. But once again, if you want overall firepower... G20 with 15rds of 10mm goodness!

Ruger Gunsite Scout
ok... my bad i had been reading where someone was trying to make the M1A1 mags work in a Ruger Frontier Rifle. But there are options available. Alpha Ind makes mags that are double stack single feed for $60. Scout rifle discussions on other forums are funny. They tend to be like fusball games... all fun and jokes and then turn nasty and violent.

Ruger Gunsite Scout
Totally legal as it is a bolt. $1K is outrageous... supposed to MSRP of $700 or so. I could see paying $600 max for it. I saw somewhere where people have gotten M1A1 mags to work. I will look into it some more. I personally love the concept for some stupid reason, totally smitten with this rifle. But is there any role that the scout rifle does that could not be performed with a lightweight DMR or heck a decent MBR. Just seems that whatever Cooper wrote, people took as gospel. I say he was having an off day when he thought up the scout rifle. That being said, I still want one. I think Cooper dreamed this up, loved the look and concept, then figured out ways to justify his creation. Must weight less then 8pds, have 1 MOA accuracy out to 600m, mag capacity GT 5. Whatever! I still want one.

Time for a new military sidearm
Shane... you might be right there becuase I did not know HK opened a facility in Columbus, Ga. As soon as you said that I thought, no way would HK win because they wont produce them here in USA. Well, once again, proven wrong by google. HK for the win... Damit. But hold on a minute. First they only hold 10rds.... the other all have greater mag capacity. They also run $1K each! Ray the FNs are only $550 +/-. FN sells for much lower to the .mil. The S&Ws are about the same.

Competition Season About to Start
Provided you aren't some unsafe know-it-all tool +1 to that. Tosser's little party at USANA in the fall lit my competive juices up again. I have been kicking around going to some more IDPA this spring and summer. I used to shoot alot of it in Georgia, pre kids. Need to make the time and go back to it.

Time for a new military sidearm
Springfield will have to move production to the US, make a model change id for the military model then Keep selling the civie ones made in Croatia. I personally think it will come down to XD, Mp45 and FN45. I hate to say it but the best gun there is the FN45, with one serious flaw. It is a huge handgun. IF FN could size the frame down just a touch... they would be the winner. And made in SC already. I still think they should go 10mm!

Do you keep spare parts on hand?
Not for my XCR, plenty for my mossberg shotguns and since I shoot Glocks there is no need to.

For You Nagant Fans
I would buy one. Keep the pressure up in the .22lr, I bet that thing is plenty accurate also.

Interservice Rivalry - Marines vs Navy
having never served I also feel as if I can not particpate... but I certainly do like stirring the pot to a simmer somedays. I work with 2 Marines, 3 AF, 3 CG, 4 USN, 6 USA and 1 IDF. Sometimes is it is fun to toss a comment in, always with a "Hey... X says that the AirFarce...." or something like that. Then sit back and listen. Sometimes it makes the day go by so much faster.
