Hey guys,

Just bought my first handgun, pretty excited. Haven't yet fired it, but definitely looking forward to it. It's a .40 Sig P229 with night sights, looking forward to your comments. The color combo is definitely unique, and I waited a long time to find exactly what I was looking for.

I was sold on the Springfield XD, but my dad did the right thing and talked me out of it. He's a 1911-guy, former sniper, etc so the polymer frame didn't really do it for him. Glad I took the advice and got a Sig!

Post up what you guys have [patriot]

Great choice. I carry a 226 but prefer the 229. Unique color combo but looks good. [Big Grin]

Thanks Steve! You're Sac County Sherriff, right? Don't want to "out" you on the board, lol!

Congrats on the first gun! [patriot]

Although I don't follow you with your dad making the right decision to talk you out of a polymer framed gun.... [Confused]

If anything I would say the xd is closer to a 1911 than what you purchased.

Nothing wrong with polymer framed guns at all, they've proved themselves through the years...

Sounds good to me, give me a couple weeks to heal up. I usually go on Sundays but have been shooting my 10/22 a lot more lately!!! Cheap to shoot.

I just bought a Sig P238 w/night sights and another AR15 upper w/extras. A package deal presented itself that I just could not pass up [Big Grin]

I am going to buy another lower, for my new upper. With prices leveling out, this will be a complete rifle built for a tad over $600!!! [Wink]

Nice man, i am going to convert my AR into an M4 clone and take the big scope off it and put an aimpoint on it. I don't need it for long distance anymore now that i have the 308.

Gotta love Sigs! I got a P226 and when I was shopping around I shot the Glock and XD all in .40 cal and nothing shot as smooth as the Sig. Definitely a great choice!

I just picked up a Mossberg shotty that I need to let off some rounds with soon!

HAHA!! No I haven't seen it, but with an intro like that, I'm gonna go rent it this weekend. Thanks for the compliments.

You guys have some nice-looking guns, that's for sure. CALIFORNIAGT my dad bought a Sig GSR like yours about a year ago I believe and really likes it, but he's really taking a good look at the P226 X5 Competition model, but they're asking ~$2500 or so - pretty pricey, but it puts three rounds in a 1" group at 25 yards.

I was torn between the XD and "everything else"; I went with the Sig because I figured I'm spending x amount of money, why not just add a bit more and get the gun that feels 100% perfect in the hand. Nothing against polymer-framed guns, but for my taste they just don't feel as good in the hand.

Post more if you've got them!

Posted by snakebit95 (Member # 8871) on :
 
Yeah kinda, but I don't think anybody will be trying to read when its pointed at them. [Big Grin] . The only reason it says that is because there is no safety.

ahhh yes, no saftey, the only type of gun worth owning. I think safety's are for retards. If you need a safety, then you shouldn't be owning a gun.

I'm just teasing anyway. It's a tool, and as long as it does its job, that's what matters [patriot]

Aparantly Snakebit didn't read them because in his pics he has one with his finger on the trigger and another with the gun pointed at the camera....
