Forgot what I had ordered.... wife said there was a package on the porch and so I opened it in front of her... direct from New Hampshire, she was not happy....


Can y'all figure it out...

Airsoft?

Yeah, a new SIG delivered directly to a private residence? Not a firearm.

Ordered, not returned, not a firearm. Navy Airsoft?

CO2 air pistol. Not Airsoft as they cannot sell airsoft without the red/orange barrel end.

.177 cal air pellet pistol.

Yep, need one to practice here at home with ... did not realize it was a m-25 :-)

Nice surprise.

Showed my wife the P230SL I got Monday. I feel your pain. She’s still mad.

Dern, she should like that P230.... it is beautiful and in my opinion one of the most feminine pistols ever made.. all curves... nothing like a 'Glunk' ... those all look like shoe boxes to me.

And I know some folks here like the PPK but the P230 or 232 is a much nicer .380.

Took it to the pistol range on Thursday and it functioned fine.... awful quiet but then I realized later I shot it between shooting my Walter PPK and Sig P239 and had hearing protection on...

did learn tha you have to close the panel that the CO2 cartridge goes in with 'meaning'.. and don't back off once you start or you will lose a cartridge.

Yesterday UPS delivered a newly refinished Colt Detective Special to my front door from CCR refinishing. Indeed, it felt a bit weird having the revolver delivered straight to my home.

C02 pistols are VERY QUIET at the range with ear pro on. In your basement without ear pro, however, they are LOUD!! Comparatively speaking.

Whenever I bring any of my air guns to a “real” range I always get asked if I’m shooting suppressed and what my suppressor is because it’s SUPER QUIET. I Tell them it’s an air gun and they look and not seeing a Red Ryder or Wal-Mart special want to try. They then try take a shot feeling the trigger of a high end air gun. Then they all get the same incredulous look of holy hell this thing is awesome. I usually reply with it should be it costs Good REAL GUN MONEY.

Well to be honest I'm a long ways away from bragging about the trigger on this Sig P226 CO2 pistol.... Also, I wish it weighed close to the same as a standard 226 with a loaded mag but I guess that is asking too much.

Sorry I wasn’t talking about CO2 replica triggers.

In my experience all the CO2 replica triggers SUCK. Honestly some of the Airsoft stuff have far better triggers. The weight surprises me usually they feel pretty close.

Now a decent mid to high end single stroke pneumatic/spring gun or PCP air gun can get you a trigger to die for. Hell I own......well let’s say a wee bit more then 2 guns and many of my air guns have FAR FAR better triggers then my powder burners.

clinger, I knew you were talking about high end guns not these lower priced replicas...

I do have to correct something I said.... I was taking guns out of my range bag including this CO2 P226 and realized it was pretty heavy and decided to put in on the scale.... seems the gun is just about the same weight (actually a tad more) than a Sig P226 with 16 rounds of 148gr 9mm.

Yep. That makes more sense about the weight. The replicas are usually pretty faithful.
