Selling that P99 was such a mistake.

Other recall.
This time from Sig.
Sig is recalling the CROSS Rifle.
https://www.sigsauer.com/crossrecall

Nutnfancy found the issue and reported it to SIG. TGC talked about it to day. The segment about what is happening starts at the 2:48 mark.

Been messing around with the new rifle. The Timney trigger, hand grip, and magazine release extension came in today. So I installed that stuff. The trigger is a 2 stage. The 1st stage is set at 8oz, the 2nd stage breaks at 1lb. When you squeeze the trigger, it's like breaking a glass rod. Nice and crisp.

Waiting on the scope rings, reloading dies, and the solvent trap can.

I’ve been considering a Timney for a while. Just can’t decide if I like a two stage or not.

I love the trigger in my 308 but I have the one that has the safety recall. I figure it’s better for me to buy a new trigger rather than send it back to Remington.

I just ordered a CMT trigger to try. Single stage. BF deal. For my AR build.
In other news, my Uncle on my wife's side has an unfired Ruger SR1911 For sale. $600. Seems fair , but i have never owned or fired a Ruger 1911. Anyone here have one?

If you live in one of the restricted/commie states it’s not a bad option as a good self defense rifle.

Looking to get another. I have a Marlin 1895 in 45-70 but I’m looking to get one in a smaller caliber like .357 Mag. I was looking to get another Marlin but Henry just released almost all their lever actions with side loading gates. They still can be loaded via the tube which give you the best of both worlds which has attracted my attention.

I was thinking of a 44mag with a red dot.

If I didn’t have a 45-70 already I’d be leaning more towards to .44 Mag. Can do a lot with .357 out of a rifle and you can drop down to 38 special for low recoil plinking.

One of the reasons I’m leaning towards Marlin is due to the red dot mount MI has for their fore end. It puts a red dot very close to the bore so you can lower 1/3 co-witness the open sights and, but more importantly, not have a ridiculously cheekwell when using the red dot.
