Admiral Yamamoto infamously said "You cannot invade the mainland United States. There would be a man with a rifle behind every blade of grass."
And so it should be, a nation of riflemen....

SIG!
Ahhhh....picked my P226 tonight. Man, is it made nice! Going to spend some time reading the manual, field-stripping it, cleaning it, getting to know it, and practicing loading/unloading it with dummy rounds. That's something I do with every firearm I own, and one of those things that was passed down to me. It's quite a bit fatter-in-the-hand than my beloved 1911 pistols, so that's going to take a little getting used to, and I'm sure my grip will be different on it. It's also got a *very* different trigger pull than I'm used to with my 1911's. Oh, well....looks like a good reason to spend more time at the range!

Thinking about getting some more 22LR for my little Marlin semi-auto. I already have a good stock of 22LR, but they're all Wolf and Fio...

ReplyDeleteI love the 1911 so let me know how the P226 works for you. Whatever you do make sure you get enough ammo for both
ReplyDeleteI'll post a mini 'Range Report' the first time I take it out. Been down all weekend with a nasty cold.
ReplyDeleteI'll be interested to know "where" you shoot- Whether it shoots POA or you have to adjust... I tried a 226 and shot 530 low all day.
ReplyDeleteBought a cute little P22...with laser....and can't even bring it home. :(
ReplyDeleteHey....how come I have to use the Google whatsit? My site doesn't have the .wordpress.com stuff. :/
ReplyDeleteDon't understand your question, Kate.
ReplyDeleteA Google "whatsit"?
I could tear down and clean something like that everyday.
ReplyDeleteHeaded off to the range in a few minutes. I'll do some targets at 5yds, 10yds, and 15yds to how well it shoots to POA, and post some pix here later.
ReplyDeleteGot back from the range with my targets, but don't have time tonight to take the pix and post them. I'll do it Saturday morning.
ReplyDeletePosted my results and some target pix.
