My preference is the P225. The p225 is essentially a single stack p228. Pizza Bob summed it up pretty well.

Bill, the profile is different than the p228. The slide is taller on the newer p229's. I am not sure you will be use the same holster.

well yes and no. It used to work as you said, but sig has now changed the slide. So all the slides now have full serrations. The 9mm sig x change kit has full serrations and uses the p229-1 mags.

I would love to try one out. Heard a ton of good things about it.

I have been thinking about a glock in 45acp. My wife is interested in a gen 4 g21.

Bill, the deal is, Sig change the slide on the p229 platform. They are now using the frame design from the .40 p229 for all calibers. Hence the need to change the slide. They now have slides with full serrations like the p226. These slides are taller, thinner and have a long extractor. If you have a p229 in 9mm, this matter's to you. If not, there are no mag differences. 9mm p229 w/o full slide serrations, uses the plain p229 mag that are 13 rounders or 15 round mec gars. The full serration slide uses p229-1 mag's that are 15 rounds. The mecgar equivalent are 17 rounders that we can't have. So it's Sig oem mags if you have a full serrated slide in a p229 9mm. make sense?

Your welcome to try out my gen 4 g17. I haven't had an issue with brass to the face. I bought it to use in glock matches. If your using it for matches etc... the mag count doesn't matter.

Is this a special deal right now and for how long? I will place an order for myself and a few guys down here.

I will be glad to back out if you want in. I have no issue with it.

The gen 3 trigger bar's are cheap enough that I would have just gotten a gen 3 TB and polished that to try. Would have been easier and you would have been able to quickly go back if there was an issue.

I could be in for a 8lb jug of Hodgon Clays.

Congrats Vic. Thank you for your sacrifice.

I'd be in for 10k of remington 209 shotshell primers.

I'd be interested in that conversion.

I had no idea of this. I did see some guy using some semi's were able to get their shell but I didn't see what type of gun it was. What is it that they use?

I get mine filled up at Agway. The bleed the tank to be sure you get a full tank. They are in town and easy to get to. We go through about 7-8 a year. I have an extra always filled so it's never an issue while cooking.

I put in a generator. As part as that, I made sure the curcuits that power the net, phone and tv are all wired to it.

I see your from the CJ area. Your more than welcome to come over and check my set ups out. I have a few presses. I am going to sell my Lee Classic Turret. It's nice for the beginner and you can easily crank out a minimum of 150 rounds an hour. It has die's for 9mm, 40 and 45acp. I might even have a new set for 38/357mag. Lemme know if you wanna check it out.

Drum brakes are easy to worl on but a PITA sometimes to get the drum off. I would suggest having a shop look at them when you get the oil changed. If you were local to me, I would take the drum off and show you but your far away from me.

I wonder what would happen in this particular instance if they walked in the yard and saw the homeowner carrying? recipe for disaster if you ask me. On another note, if I have an issue with my neighbor, I bring it up to him face to face. I don't feel the need to hide it. if that doesn't solve it, I would call the cops. Generally I have good neighbors but I do have one that infringes upon my property a lot. I just nip it in the bud right away. To the OP, That is why you put the fence on the outside of the shrubs.

I think the rules you posted are good. One thing though, the shells annoying people is kinda hard for some. If you are using a semi auto, it's hard to have the shell eject in a certain spot. When I am on the line, I am kinda focused and don't pay attention to anything anybody else is doing. It's a competition with yourself. I pay attention to the call's and that is it. I have extractors on my o/u and I generally break the action slow enough to catch my shell because I wanna save the hull.

Haha, I could see Ray Ray doing his 3am Tactical hunting drills. On the other side, I see that Mossberg actually has a big line of O/U gun that are reasonably priced. My biggest concern about the whole gun would be the inertia driven trigger on the second barrel. While shooting at LVSC, I have seen people pull the trigger and the round not go bang. While it's possible the gun is dirty and the firing pins need to be cleaned but it is a possibility. Now if this were to happen on your first barrel....whew.

Recessed Filter hits the nail on the head, touching on everything that is most important. The extractors may be able to be modified to actually eject. I know when I am shooting clays, I prefer to extract and not eject. I have found that people are changing the spring in the extractors to a lighter spring makes them just extract. Maybe if you put a stronger spring in, you may be able to get them to extract? Without seeing the gun, I can't speculate further. One benefit it does have is it's a shorter gun then most pump/ semi shotguns. With the polymer and short barrels, it probably a light gun and will have a heavier felt recoil. I like SxS and O/U guns because I like them. My preference for a HD shotgun would be a pump. As an aside, a negative to this gun is that I bet it doesn't have mechanical triggers, so if you pull the trigger and it doesn't go bang because of a bad round, your screwed. I bet you could put the safety on and off quick to arm the second barrel though but that is a bad spot to be in. btw, whats the deal with offering two versions? Do they think they will actually get somebody to buy the ic/mod version for hunting?

It's about a 60 mile/ 1 hour round trip savings for me. With other stores in the area, my wife can shop for her while we are there. Prices generally are not great nut I have lucked out with in store 20% savings on powder and primers. Sometime it's just luck. Regulator72 is correct. They have a ton of odds and ends that you remember you need while there. The ammo isles ate the worst though. Hopefully the new store will be bug like the hamburg store. Supposedly, hamburg is the biggest cabelas.

I like O/U in general but I think I would want a pump. The fact that you have more available ammo other than 2 shots is why I would go pump. That being said, the stoeger coach gun is kinda cool.
