I went shooting this morning and decided to take along a Sig. I had a number of 228/229 magazines loaded and decided on the 228. The 229 was first on the rack and I went past it for the 228. After shooting my Gold Cup, I reached into the other case and pulled out my P6. I thought I checked the mag well to make sure which Sig I had, but I didn't do a very good job. The good side is I don't have a 9mm to clean, just the .45 and Ruger Mark II. Also, I didn't fire any 9mm ammunition. I don't think I have ever made that mistake before. | ||

Ha, that sucks! I once drove 100 miles to the long range rifle range, got all set up, and then realized that all of the bolts for all five rifles were still home in the safe.

It happens, I once worked most of a shift with a completely empty pistol. What’s worse is that I left my magazine by the clearing barrel but luckily I was able to get ahold of the arms room guy who secured it for me | |||

Yeah, I once got to a service rifle match and found I had left my M14 mags at home. Some guys loaned me an extra few, but I felt very foolish.

I got to the range once with an H&K P30L and a sack full of loaded P226 mags. Both metal 15-round 9mm mags, but no workey. | |||

If you want to feel really dumb go to an USPSA/IPSC match with everything except your gun. "It is only with the heart that one can see rightly; what is essential is invisible to the eye". The Little Prince, Antoine de Saint-Exupery, pilot and author, lost on mission, July 1944, Med Theatre. | |||
