At the moviehouse about to watch Ad Astra movie.

I have a P229 and don't have an issue with the trigger. Were you shooting it DA or SA? Mine is chambered in 357 SIG with the 40 extra barrel. It does take a little getting used to going DA from the hammer drop safety.

Pulling the Sig P229 up and to the left means you need a firmer grip on the gun and relax the trigger finger. The trigger break is causing you to twitch the gun left. That will happen with Glocks too. That is what I prefer to shoot. I have several in 9mm, .45, and .357 Sig. That take some getting use to but nothing that can't be accomplished with practice.

Greetings from the Delta Sky Club at MSP.

Have a great day everyone.

It's 88F, a nice breeze partly cloudy here.

I am in the hot as hell club too. It sucks. No rain in a while and we need some, that is for sure. It is dry as a bone.

He may have to give the other guy a little attitude adjustment. Sometimes you just gotta draw the line.

Good Monday Morning all! Hope your weekend was a good one. If not, your in luck because in just 5 days you get to do it over. Have a good one and be safe out there!! :tup:

Bacon is good food. :yum:

DA or SA? Not familiar with those acronyms.

I was guessing that's what I was doing, appreciate the confirmation though. I did still put 2 through the bullseye with it, and the rest through just above and to the left (target's right torso), so I don't think it was terrible shooting considering this is my 2nd time out in my adult life. It probably did not help that I started with 2 other handguns without the trigger break.

I look forward to my next session, and will make it fairly soon.

Double Action, Single Action. Double Action, you squeeze the trigger to cockk the hammer and let it fall. Single Action, the hammer is already cocked when you squeeze the trigger. Like the 1911.

:hello:

I'z up. :yawn: I think.

Something in the bedroom is calling out my name. Think it missing me. Think it's my pillow.

Got it.

Ghost, I'm not sure if the P229 was DA or SA. This trigger moved for the first (largest) portion of its travel with almost no resistance; light pressure from the trigger finger was enough. However the last portion of the movement required much more pressure, at which point it would fire. It required that for every shot.

Finally woke up to temps in the 60s! So nice!! ;)

Mornin' folks!:hello:Blue Monday.:ugh2:

Coffee and a bagel were needed this morning.

DA = Double Action (hammer down, really long trigger pull)
SA = Single Action (hammer cocked back, really short trigger pull)

Sorry I didn't explain those at first. :tiphat:

The P229 is a DA/SA gun. It can be fired with the hammer down and a round in the chamber with a long pull of the trigger. After the first round, it becomes a SA firearm, the hammer is cocked when the fired round is ejected. The 1911 has to be cocked before it will fire from the hammer down, usually when you rack the slide to chamber a round.

I carried a Sig pretty much every day for almost twenty years in my law enforcement life. Love the gun but I was way more accurate with S&W 686 wheel gun (revolver). The deal with Sig is you got get use to the little lag in the trigger pull before it engages. If you rush the pull instead of squeezing all the way through you it will cause you to throw or pull your rounds depending on your grip on the gun. You can not anticipate the trigger fall!

My SIG goes almost everywhere with me. It took me awhile to get used to shooting it because of the trigger (used to the 1911...) I like the number of rounds in the mag (14) and I also carry an extra mag. Call me overly paranoid, but I keep a rifle in the car too. :ugh2:

what about DP?
