I have a buddy that has a Sig 229 non railed version. Loves the gun but would like a light rail. I've seen rails that can be bolted onto 1911's and Berettas. Was just wondering if anyone made one fr the Sig?

Yes I can from real life experience argue the reliability point. Of 8-9 1911's I've owned all but three needed work from the box to get up and running. Some they couldn't get running and keep running. Common problems with 1911's 1. Extractor tension problems. Too heavy/tolight. 2. Plunger...

The general advice is if you carry a weapon cocked and locked you should stick with that weapon sothe manual of arms is instinctive. I prefer what I call "pull, point (aim), and shoot pistols. KISS is good under a high stress situation. I have carried Glocks, XD's, Sigs, and so on with no...

Knew a girl up in Detroit that needed a gun but didn't have alot of cash. She bought a Davis .380. Yes it's big and heavy. Ugly and cheap looking. It also fired everytime you pulled the trigger and was fairly accurate up close. In his excellent book "The Concealed Handgun Manual" the author Mr...

I've had two of them. A 1911SC Commander (early billboard model) and a Gunsite PD. Both needed to go back to Smih for work. But Smith paid shipping an fixed them. My Gunsite is just superb. Goes bang everytime. And is target gun accurate. I don't seriously think the $2000.00 guns I've shot were...

I own or have owned the Glock and Ruger. Fired a friends Witness. That is just the order I would go by. The Glock is light, super tough, reliable, lots of rounds, one trigger action type, and very accurate. Only con is the grip is fat. It doesn't fit lots of folks hands. If not the have the new...

Am auto for primary carr and a j-frame for a BUG. Makes alot of sense. Why? A 642/442 can be fired through the pocket. A small auto might, for one round. You can cover someone with a j-frame without them ever knowing it. If you need it see advantage number one. A hammer less j-frame is virtually...

They are coming from the same factory as the AR24's. In fact the name on them is the name of the factory producing the AR's. In other words a rebranded AR24. Rather that is good or bad I don't know. I'll stick with the original CZ's myself.

Father Knows Best, just FYI. Everyone of the 1911's I've owned have been Springfield Armory, S&W, or Kimber. And as a Range officer I've seen more 1911's have FTF, FTE, FRTB, and so on than any other guns. It really gets old when your experience is different than someone elses and they attempt...

+1 to what 1911 Tuner said. I've owned 8-9 1911's. Two worked from the box. My boss has a commercial model 1911 built in 1913 that's been in the family for quite awhile. It will shoot ball rounds everytime. It isn't pretty anymore. But it works! It is a crap shoot as far as the new guns.. As a...

Read somewhere that the former president of Kimber is now the president of Sig. That would explain the sudden outbreak of worthless beavertails on some Sigs. And maybe pressed to meet huge government contracts might explain the apparent drop in Sig quality I've heard rumblings about.

No!

I am at the point where I won't even bother with a 1911. Like you I went through the "Kimber Schuffle". Bought one, was sent two replacements. None could be made to work and stay working. Tried some other brands had better luck but none has the stone cold reliability of my HK USPc .45, Sig 229R...

You know I will never understand the ignorance of some folks. Why is it such a hard concept to get that even if every Taurus product you've owned has worked doesn't mean somene else has had a very different experience? Right down the middle has been my experience. Half the Taurus guns I have...

My Kel tec P-3At first generation. I know they were supposed to of had some problems but mines been perfect. After I had it a couple of weeks KT traded me the blued slide and barrel for chromed versions for only $20.00. They used to do that quite a bit. Mines fired everytime. Actually is pretty...

Sig 229 9mm usually. Really hot weather 239 9mm. Streaming hot MK40.

Had a p-32. Great litle gun. Upgraded to the .380 when it came out. Both of my guns were perfect. Some of my friends had problems with theirs but KT took care of them. I use it primarily as a BUG. But it can truley go places with you that only a .22 or .25 could go at one time. Once you earn to...

Had the same thing happen on a S&W 1911 Sc. Firing pin block got out of time. Press trigger and the gun went "click". One of the loudest noises I've ever heard. They fixed it but it doesn't leave me feeling warm and fuzzy about 1911 firing pin safeties. One gun guru said it's really not a matter...

I've had a P-32. Fine little gun. When the P-3AT I upgraded to it to get as much "umpfff" as I could in the smallest gun possible. The .380 is less pleasant to shoot than the .32. Simply put because it is a more powerful round. Neither is like firing a super lightweight J frame with +P or .357...

I usually carry the Winchester Rangers +P's or Speer Gold Dots in my guns. I use the Georgia Arms +p version of the 230gr. Gold Dot. They have opened beautifully in every medium we've tested them in. Ran around 880 f.ps. average out of a 1911. My buddy shot a large ram with with one a couple of...
