going into the 4th box of ammo







even with the above failures this is my group at 30' on the last box of ammo

Left target is 1st bullet of the box, the right target is the remaining 49


A little bit more info. Ammo was 115grn Independence range ammo. Good stuff, no complaints in any of my other firearms. The grip was thumbs forward under the slide stop and take down lever. The gun was well lubed and racked before range day. My conclusion is that the recoil spring and or extractor spring are out of wack.

I have an email into greys guns about an action job to lesson the DA trigger pull. I will add to the inquiry about the FTE.

The other gun, My venerable sig mosquito. 14k through it. Today is the day the barrel died. I am happily working on my DA/SA trigger pull with suppressor first thing this morning.





I did not get a squib load, not at least in the audible way. The rounds were fired in two shot strings. DA/SA with at least one second apart. Again i was working on trigger pull. I detected no audible difference. The above happened mid mag about 6 shots in. I was unable to retract the slide or drive it home. I brought the pistol home and disassembled it, to find....






Sig is sending me a prepaid shipping label and it is going back for repairs. Sigh, very sad to see the little guy go for a while.

Sorry to read about your less than spectacular day.

I hope the extractor issue is easily fixed and Sig makes good on the barrel.

Hate it when good guns go bad.

It is what it is. The p226 is new, stainless. I have a sneaky suspicion that is to blame for most of its woes. The mosquito had 14k through it. A air soft 22, well it was borrowed time.
