What you have to pay $3000 for a P210 in the USA? A former swiss service pistole P49 aka P210 worth only approx $1000-1100.
For target shooting they are meybe not better 9mm gun ever build.
But as "range toy" I would choose:
1. Walther PPQ
2. S&W M&P
3. IMI Jericho (in the USA maybe sold as IMI...
Here in Switzerland we've quite liberty gun law in Europe. But not the free that most in the USA maybe think.
But they are some difference between private gun ownership and keeping a service rifle at home.
Hunting rifle and old Swiss military bolt action like K31 can be purchased without...
As a range toy an target shooting I would go with the STI 1911. Much better trigger and fun to shoot then any sticker fired gun.
You already have some double stack 9mm and a PPQ is just an other polymer framed bouble stack service pistol.
A pistole must fit you hand and you have to master the trigger well.
I tried my friend's P30 few time. It fit my hand well, but the trigger (in this case the P30 V1 trigger configuration) is note my favorit. Long trigger pull and you have to release the trigger quite long to get to the reset...
My Glock 19 has RTF2 frame, so no grip tap would needed.
Modifications that I made:
- Extended slide release lever
- Front sight changed to HIVIZ
- But plug insert :) you know what I mean...
Here in Switzerland most people shooting with former Swiss army service pistols.
And at most target shooting competition you mostly see P210, few P220 and very few Luger in Cal. 7.62.
Swiss army revolver are certified for competition shooting. But ammo are hard to find and expensiv :)
Modern...
I used to have an eotech on my Rugre PC-9.
Brightness setting on max but I still can't see the rectle at day.
I can't sent it to US for repair, because I live in europe:banghead:
(US Export restiction)
So I just bougth 5 until now.
But I'm looking for a Ruger super black hawk cal. 44 mag. So maybe it will be 6 purchased this year:)
But until now:
Ruger MK II
S&W mod. 586
Brügger & Thomet TP9 (Swiss made SBR cal. 9x19)
German Parabellum P08 alias Luger P08
Waffenfabrik Bern Parabellum 06/29...
We have two service pistol disciplines.
Old service pistol model P49 aka SIG P210 or Luger Pistol = 50m
New service pistol model P75 aka SIP P220 = 25m
50 m pistol shooting is quite often here.
I don't buy anything made in Germany. Neither guns or cars.
They are overpriced and not worth the money.
I'm fan of French car and Swiss and Austrian made guns.
I owned several SigSauer Pistols. (P225, P226 and P228). I sold them all but keep my Glock 17 and Glock 19. I don't like the high bore axis on all P22x Serie pistols.
price performance ratio of SigSauer products are very poorly.
The only SIG pistol that I still have is the SIG P210. The real...
