Most indoor ranges make a lot of money by selling ammo. They're incented to restrict the ammo that shooters bring in to their range.

In the police academy we were taught to use our dominant eye. i.e. your strong arm is wounded so you transfer to ur weak and continue.

I can do alrite with my weak hand, but its not something I practice regularly... I prolly should

yea, I've heard of that happening. I'm sure a lot of it is like what Baer said about wanting you to buy their ammo. But also being indoors, you dont have the best ventilation lol

:tiphat: Thanks!

Probably the worst idea I've seen in the past couple months:

lmao to that!!!^^^

she deserved it...dude told da biatch not to mess with it but she didnt listen...

I took this from another forum. Stupid idiot husband shouldn't have pulled his gun for that, and the stupid idiot wife should never have grabbed a gun.

:iagree:

But they are the perfect couple :facepalm:

:iagree:

For some reason the crying wife reminds me of all of those whiny women in movies that scream and whine in situations where they just need to sftu. I am particularly reminded of that stupid girl (Dakota Fanning) in War of the Worlds where she screams incessantly in the car. God I wanted her to stfu so bad. :mad:

In other news, I now need to stop allowing my gf to come to the range with me. her groupings are getting too good. :bowrofl:

I think if I was shooting that stuff I might consider reloading myself. But since I just shoot 9mm it's probably not that cost effective to spend the time doing it myself. I picked up 20 boxes of Federal FMJ at Wally World today for $11.49 a box... not too bad. Though it does appear that prices have gone up a bit... Probably can save a bit of money by ordering online now.

Oh, tried some new stuff in the 870 today: Centurion 1 1/8 oz rifled slugs and RIO Royal 00 Buck Low Recoil.

The Centurion slugs are nice. They fly nice and straight (out to 50 yds... indoor range), fire fairly cleanly, and are relatively cheap. They are $15.95 for a box of 50 from SGAmmo.com. I ordered 250 more rounds of tonight... I like 'em! The only thing I noticed is that they seem to run just a hair longer than 2 3/4" which means I can only load the tube with 5 shells instead of 6... that's not a big deal for bulk range slugs, though.

The RIO Buck wasn't that bad. A little bit less of a punch compared to the Remington 2 3/4" 00 Buck I was shooting before but man does it stink and fire pretty dirty. I want to say they were about $22 for 50 so its not too bad, but buck is not really much fun to shoot at the range IMO so I doubt I'll order any more of this stuff. I did order some Sellier & Bellot 00 and #4 to try, though.

Is yours made in Germany or the USA?

i would love to get a german made sig

For the US-import P229s prior to about 2005, the frames were made in Germany and the slides were milled from stainless steel in the US. The current US versions are now completely made in Exeter at SigArms. The problems that I keep hearing are with the US-made frames, not the slides. Mainly assembly, quality control, and quality of component frame parts...especially springs, hammers, trigger bars, and grips. One problem my buddy has seen lately has been failure of the pin that pins the breech block to the slide. The German-made Sigs use a solid pin, SigArms now uses a roll pin that is prone to loosening, he says.

My P229 is the original German version.

I have a fun project this weekend... making discreet rifle cases and range bags.

I never gave any thought to it before, I had to get mine out and look! Slide stamped, MADE IN W. GERMANY. The frame has no markings, but the serial number.
