| Sigs are my Panacea...  |
Had to be the Kahr P45 pistol. I had a PM9 that I actually liked and thought, "Heck, bigger is better", so I got the larger caliber. Could not hit the broadside of a barn, and it really smacked my hand! Oh yes, the Mosquito is on that list too..... * --- Sig 365, 365XL, 245, P6 * | |||

mine was 45acp first round in the 10 ring at about 10 paces, the other 30-40 I shot made a pattern that can only be described as ,, wide, like buchshot out of a cyl bore at 100, bought it at one gunshow, used, shot it, and then sold it at the next show, managed to get my money out of it https://chandlersfirearms.com/chesterfield-armament/ | |||

Small-frame .38/.357 revolvers. My three (over a period spanning two decades) were a S&W 640-1, Colt Agent and Ruger SP101. Unlike my previous example, there was nothing wrong with their quality. I just couldn't hit anything with them. Their role as a backup/deeper concealment/"stick in my pocket for a quick errand" gun has been taken over by the Ruger LCP. Although not fun to shoot due to "trigger sting", I can at least hit the target. "The Almighty, He put some livin' things on this earth so a man can eat." - Festus Haggen, Gunsmoke | |||

Sig 232 - went to the gunshop for a different pistol - saw it in the case and bought it in stead. I think I still have scars from the slide bite. I reject your reality and substitute my own. --Adam Savage, MythBusters | |||

I had already gotten used to Remington 700s and got a deal on a new Ruger 77 223 in a pretty walnut stock. First problem was the trigger, not adjustable like the 700. Figured out what you saved by scope mounts and rings coming on the 77, you needed to spend on an aftermarket trigger. Then it wasn't accurate like a 700 and the fore end was kind of flimsy. I sold it and bought a 700 Classic in 223. They used to offer them in one caliber per year and pretty much if you didn't get one, that was it. It is accurate enough. Wish I had several other 700 Classics. | |||

Kimber warrior. It was a single shot. Colt commander during the lowest QC times apparently. The safety flopped around and would jam 3 or 4 times per magazine. ----------------------------------------- Roll Tide! Glock Certified Armorer NRA Certified Firearms Instructor | |||

There's a few, but off the top of my head I was really disappointed with my Ruger SP101 in 22lr. It was the newer model with the 8 shot cylinder. I could not get it to group well with any of the ammo I tried through it.

My disappointing firearm award goes to my first sig the P250. Bought it right as they came out and it ended up being so bad you couldn't get it to fire more than a couple of rounds and it would jam. Funny thing is I found a used P250 380 many years after in the used case and bought it for under $200. Couldn't pass it up, still like the P250's hammer fired design. | |||

Springfield XDS in .45 what a pos. It was chewing up the guide rod where it meets the barrel even though I used grease and I just couldn’t hit shit with it. Not to mention the trigger was terrible. Maybe in 9mm they were better. | |||

Me too! I bought one as soon as they hit the market and it proved to be a jammomatic! Although SIG had a program where they would repair/replace it, I kept it! Why? As a firearm instructor, I use it to teach how to clear malfunctions! | |||

Sig P245. The 245 is great, unfortunately for some reason I can't shoot that particular gun worth a damn. I can shoot all my other pistols acceptably, but not that one. I hand it to my brother or dad and it's a tack driver, but when I shoot it I'm both inaccurate AND inconsistent. "The people hate the lizards and the lizards rule the people." "Odd," said Arthur, "I thought you said it was a democracy." "I did," said Ford, "it is." "So," said Arthur, hoping he wasn't sounding ridiculously obtuse, "why don't the people get rid of the lizards?" "It honestly doesn't occur to them. They've all got the vote, so they all pretty much assume that the government they've voted in more or less approximates the government they want." "You mean they actually vote for the lizards." "Oh yes," said Ford with a shrug, "of course." "But," said Arthur, going for the big one again, "why?" "Because if they didn't vote for a lizard, then the wrong lizard might get in." | |||

My 4th gen Glock 32, wouldn't feed regular hollow points, but the Hornady Flexlock worked perfectly. It did end up with me moving to that 135 grain in a 9mm+P I did lose 155FPS but I can carry 21 rounds in the same size footprint. _____________________________________________ Proverbs 3:31 "Envy thou not the oppressor, and choose none of his ways." | |||

this +1 the one I have hasn't broken (yet), it doesn't have a lot of rounds through it, and I've used it to teach my kids how to clear a jam also, it shoots the CCI decently -~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~- All his life he tried to be a good person.

I must credit a kind salesperson who advised me to not buy a Laseraim 1911. I don't know how bad they really are, but I'm glad I didn't find out. | |||

Rohrbaugh R9s. Very small 9mm pistol. I picked up one of the first available when they came out - in 2002, I think it was. It was built well, but I couldn't hold onto it tightly enough to keep it from jamming all the time. I don't think I ever got through an entire magazine without a jam.

Two, actually. S&W in 3” and 5”. These were the start of a set. Smith put out a 357magnum in 3,5, and 7” barrel lengths. They had special grips with, you guessed it, 357 emblazoned in them. I searched for each one for quite some time. I wound up with two of the 3” models and one of the 5” models. I never did locate a 7” pistol. I shot each one. Poorly. With my Rugers I am (was, it’s been a while) able to place all my shots inside an 8” pie plate at 25 yards. I could not shoot any of the Smiths even to minute of barn. I changed grips…same result. I shot hundreds of rounds. Same result. So I traded them off. | |||
