Speaking of Hi Point, has anyone heard anything about the alleged .45 carbine that they're working on? If it's as inexpensive as their other guns, I might want to get one for myself when/if it actually comes out.

There will be a new episode of Extreme Marksmen on the History Channel, January 25 at 8pm Eastern.

Firearms sales only to those 18 and over. All firearms, all ammunition, 18 and over. That is the only "gun law" I would have.

Can you get Sigs for that price in Germany? You can get one brand-new for about half of that here in the States. I own one of your old police surplus P6 pistols and love it.

Thanks for the clarification, that did look like the slide in your first pic, with the slide locked back. I'm not really familiar with the Mosquito design, it's different from the regular Sigs. Anyway, as others have pointed out, maybe email them with your photos and see what they have to say...

It's probably just a cosmetic issue. I wouldn't go through the hassle and expense of sending it back if the gun shoots fine. Is there a chance that you caused it somehow? Any rough handling? And by the way, the gouge is on the slide, not the barrel.

Yes, he did deserve everything he got. He fired a gun in a room full of innocent people, a supposed "professional". If one of us mere peons had done that, there would be no question that we deserved it. Not only did he demonstrated stupidity and neglegence, also mind-blowing hubris as well...

I don't really have any interesting firearms, but when I took my Sig P6 to the range, I was astonished that it did generate some interest. One older fellow took a look at it, said he had a P225, which would be pretty much the same thing. You'd think those folks had never seen a Sig before.

You did fine, and welcome to the United States as a citizen! I'm a Ruger man myself, but you did fine. Buy yourself a few bricks and enjoy some cheap shooting. I'd imagine Italian gun laws aren't as permissive as the ones here.

This is the first I've heard of a K31 locking up for any reason. Mine has been 100% reliable, but I've only used GP11 and Prvi Partizan ammo in it. The action, to me, is smooth as butter and it completely extracts and ejects every time.

AIM doesn't have any P6s at the moment, their only used handguns are the Nagant revolvers, and I don't think that's what you're after. http://www.aimsurplus.com/ However, it is where I bought my P6 for just over $300 out the door. Great quality and service, reasonable prices.

Just got back from the gun show. It was pretty crowded, but no worse than it has been. Ammo prices weren't too outrageous, though I saw a brick of 60 rounds of 7.5x55 Swiss selling for $55. I bought a brick at another table for $20 less. Lots of folks carrying SKSs and AKs. I didn't look too...

AIM Surplus is good people. They won't screw you over. If you go there in person to buy a gun or ammo, they take your ID and make a photocopy and keep it on record.

Their only real use is against pests, rats, snakes and the like. Pretty much worthless for anything else. Turns your pistol into a mini-shotgun, which is kind of neat, though.

Get yourself a P6 or two. Sig quality without the sticker shock. Single-stack 9mm, might be a bit large for concealing, but I think it's entirely doable. They're starting to dry up though, so if you want one, you'd better jump on it right now. I got mine from AIM Surplus for just over $300...
