Slow day at work, headed to the gun shop down the road and walked out with an M&P .45 Shield

HK3- · 08-31-2016, 05:46 AM

Nice score on the shield. Bang for the buck it's the way to go.

HK3- · 08-31-2016, 02:12 PM

Picked this one up today.

Nice! Love my Colts!

Always wanted a Sig. Picked this up yesterday.

Remo · 08-31-2016, 02:51 PM

That is sexy, Hal

I love the smell of gunpowder and the sound of busting clay...

Bought a P938 Nitron yesterday. Gunna pick it up when we get back from our honeymoon

My wife has been shooting, and taking classes, and she just finally took the CWP class, she's been carrying her G43 concealed for the past few days, I feel better about her safety, pretty cool!

I definitely feel more comfortable when I can't be there that my wife can take care of things!

Always been a Colt guy and just recently decided to expand into the 10mm arena. Never had one, but have always wanted one. Of course I've looked to the Colt Delta Elite, but in doing some research learned about the Sig Sauer P220 Elite in 10mm. Intrigued with that gun in stainless and wondering if anyone here possibly has experience with that model or Sig's in general. Thanks. Steve

No experience with the Sig, but I love the 10mm cartridge.

HK3- · 09-21-2016, 04:54 AM

Sorry no experience with 10mm but Sigs are fantastic. We did a product testing with Sig down in Kentucky a few years back and had the pleasure of firing most of their pistols. All were great.

Stevez · 09-20-2016, 10:41 AM

That's cool Steve. Got my wife to take the class and get her license, but she won't go shooting with me and she won't carry. Not sure why she took it in the first place. I would feel much more comfortable too if she would. Nice shooting by your wife!

Stevez · 10-17-2016, 07:38 PM

Well, finally jumped in and bought a SIG. I purchased a SIG P220 Stainless Elite in 10mm. Took delivery today although I of course haven't shot it yet. It's beautiful and I love the size, the heft. Fits perfectly in my hand and looking forward to shooting it. This was very hard to find. I posted on a Sig forum what I wanted and some guy referred me to a gun shop in PA. Called and they had it and I bought it.

Tried to post a picture but I can't get it to take. I successfully posted pics on the Sig forum, but can't here. I need to study the picture posting rules!

Do you hand load your own ammunition? With 10mm and other niche calibers like .38 super, the choices in factory ammo are relatively limited.

Actually, most of the major players produce 10mm. It's just a matter of if you can find it locally or if you have to order it, and whether you will need to take a second mortgage out to pay for it. Finding inexpensive "range" ammo is pretty much a no go though.

I really like my 10mm, it's a great hog gun in the woods. I have shot Sig, Buffalo Bore, Underwood, Hornady, and Federal out of mine with no issues. Some of the bulk stuff I have found has been spotty though.
