Silver Bullet. I'm sorry if this is a repeat Q, but did you disassemble and clean the mag when you bought the gun? SIG coats their guns and mags in
cosmoline , which is quite sticky. It could make a mag malfunction if it was really gooey in there.
Muddflap, I thank you for the thoughts on the NAA Guardian. I was really impressed with the construction of the Guardian when I looked at it the other day. It made the KelTec feel so cheap. Not that looks are everything... But the machining was nice, it was smooth to operate, and exuded quality. I was frankly pretty surprised how nice it was. Heavy, though... Heavier than my j-frame.
Blind Ref: that is a very nice gun. My first 3 pistols were Colt's. Gotta love the Pony
I've seen a few of those around, but never in great shape, they always seem to be a little beat up. What do you carry in your 380?
I went to the range yesterday and was perusing magazines in the lounge while waiting on a buddy of mine. I happened to see an article about the new SIG P220 Carry SAO, by Mas Ayoob. Personally I'm not going back to SAO because I just transitioned from 1911's and I like the DA/SA, but I do agree with his assertion that the 220 Carry's are light recoiling weapons. My memory is probably more distant than his when it comes to a P220 ("full size"), but I have shot a lot of 1911's and I think my P220 Carry is softer to shoot than the 1911. I'm not sure why; Ayoob said the SIG rep claims it's the lighter/smaller slide... Who knows, it is a fine shooter, though.
