Did I spring for a good one?

[Guest jps37033]

I just pulled the trigger on this also. I have wanted a Sig since reading David Baldacci novels; LOL

Is it a good gun? I have always heard of Sig quality? I will get it soon I hope. Looks good anyways.

That's a SigPro, which some of the Sig snobs scoff at and scorn as the red-headed stepchild of the Sig Sauer family. Supposedly inferior in quality to the "P" series.

No first hand experience with SigPros however....let us know how it turns out.

I will gladly! I have 40+ acres, and 2 of which I have turned in to a fun filled combat range

[Guest jps37033]

I actually thought of turning the other part in to an invite only combat course/tactical, blow some crap up range/. Go throught the course, responsible, practice only, live fire, metal target range?????

Is that a good idea? If I build it, will they come? LOL

Edited to add - I rented a dozer for a day to build piles to take the rounds to be safe! I am not a crazy gunner! Just wanted to clarify!

I was in love with the P250 when I got their new catalog. I had to have one. But as they came out, read reviews, and handled one, I changed my mind. It was a bit too far off the charts for Sig. I felt it a reach too far to try to keep up with times. Kinda like someone that has a great thing that tries to match a good thing. Like glock making a 1911. Stick to whats good.

I just chose this gun because the grip is a tad smaller than the standard sig. Hopefully the same qaulity. I have 400+ 40 sw rounds waiting to find out though!

I have heard good things about the SIG Pro pistols, although I prefer the classic P series. If you are in the market for a polymer-framed SIG, then I would definitely go with the SP2022 over the P250. The P250s seem to have some quality issues.

That is way too cool, man

I just recently got back into shooting, and all my plinking spots are pretty much gone. What you describe is way better than just a plinking spot though of course

fwiw: I had a Sig P220 several years ago. Was the most well made gun i have ever owned as far as attention to detail goes...imho. I was a little better shot with it than any of my other guns too.

I might have to finish this course and invite TNgunowners to come shoot some country up! I have 10 sets of metal rotary targets set out, 14 kevlar type (old military silohoute targets), and a bunch of old junk set up. I have started to motorize some of the targets to pop up on a pass through system. Its fun so far. I just need a fully auto .223, m&p sidearm, and 8 1/2 S&W 44 backup to have real fun

P.S. - For some reason the deer and turkey don't come around any more???

I'm sure there would be a ton of legal/insurance hoops to jump through, but i bet you could turn that into a nice weekend business Would probably have to get a certified range master(s) or something. Or get certified yourself, and limit the number of people.

I have no clue what would be involved, but sounds like a fun way to make some extra bucks... to me anyway

I dig going to the range, but it doesn't compare to shooting outside without the confines of the little cubicle like booths

[Guest tnmale46]

i have one i like it alot shoots great
