Bought myself a brand spanking new Legion SIG P229 in .40S&W and a BUG in the form of a brand spanking new SIG 224 SAS that will accept the mags for the 229.

Very nice. I got the 229 and 226 Legion's in 9mm back in Jan. Love the triggers.
What got me is the ad I saw today that QT has a limited number of them available in 9mm, under the LE/MIL discount program, for $999.
 
The first two would work for me. I like revolvers :).

This is just me rolling my eyes a bit in part because of SIGs marketing of this pistol. I took a class last weekend with a guy that had one and he let me handle it and it functioned and shot very well for him. I'd grab one myself were the price right, so I'm a hypocrite of the first order I suppose.

Range Report: 229 Legion, 224 SAS, RIA TCM 1911 in 22 TCM & 9mm

A little late but as promised

Like always with my reports all shooting was done at 15 yards.

First up the SIG P229 Legion. I love this dang gun. It is possibly the best DA SIG trigger I have yet experienced. I created an awesome group you can see below. The holes not in the group where all me. It is a sweet shooter and I did not experience a single malfunction. Very happy with it.

Next, the SIG 224 SAS. I am really surprised I like this as much as I do. I imagined being really disappointed with this gun because I expected the really short grip to give me a gun that is hard to control, but it turns out that was an unfounded fear. The recoil and muzzle flip is even less than my S&W M&P-40 Compact. All together a very controllable and accurate little shooter and again I did not experience a single malfunction.

Finally, the RIA TCM 1911 with both barrels. First up is the 9mm barrel. The recoil is much less than a 45 ACP in a 1911 but it shot very high with the sights as they were (about 5 inches high). It turns out that the sights are dialed in for the 22 TCM and the 9mm groups much higher. I did not experience a malfunction of any kind with 9mm or 22 TCM. With the 22 TCM barrel the recoil is a joke, but man is it loud and flashy. I produces a huge deep "BOOM" with each shot. It is a different noise then the one produced by with my snubbie S&W 44 magnum. The 44 Magnum is more like a lightening bolt crack and this is like a sonic boom or a super loud base drum. I also cannot stress how little perceived recoil the gun produces. I am pretty sure I could dump a mag in a heartbeat with almost no muzzle rise.
