I gave up on the huge Beretta and wanted a Sig like I almost bought to begin with.

I was taking up the adventure of reloading rifle brass (5.56/.223) for the first time and SIGforum came up in the search results for the question I typed in Yahoo Search. It all went downhill from there... Big Grin

This is honestly one of the best overall forum boards out there...thanks Mr. Para. No bloat-ware, annoying ads, or mamby-pamby 8-year olds, as found on many forum boards.

I don't remember for sure, it's been so long, but I believe I heard Tom Gresham talking about it on his radio show.
This is the first place I go when I get on line and one of 2 places I go to check the news. This place is the best!!!!

My first handgun purchase after moving to AZ was a P229-.357SIG. I lurked here for a few years gleaning info, and finally created an account.

My old man is also a member. It took a few years of "hey, this guy Sigforum said", or "I was reading Sigforum the other day" before I decided to check it out. Been part of my internet routine ever since.

A co-worker mentioned the forum. I was curious and lurked for a while. I liked what I saw and created an account.

I was researching something about one of my Sigs(don't remember what) and the Forum came up as one of the choices so I lurked for quite a while then joined. This is the only forum I have joined.

Back in 2005, I was a member of the S&W Forum (Para owned it then).
I heard he also had Sig Forum, and having just bought my first Sig (a 9mm P239) I figured I just had to join.

I picked up my SIG P226R with Crimson Trace SIG Logoed grips that I ordered from a LGS on 8-6-07.

It came with 12 round magazines which were not allowed for us common folks. OK for the California LEO Crowd. The store swapped them out for ten rounders when they delivered the Pistol to me. The ten round magazine followers did not have the same abutments protruding that would catch the slide stop lever on the final round to lock open the slide. I had the slide not locking back on the last round very frequently.

Search Google to find the only real answers here from the specialists. Joined to post my problem and been learning ever since. Sure glad this Family here accepted me even with my horrible spelling and grammar in some of my posts.


Thanks Everyone and Mods.

Researching a pending purchase of a SP-2340.

Found the pistol was good to go. Also found the lounge. The humor as well as knowledge sold me.

I'm no computer nerd but damned if I can find anything even close to this place.

Bought a P220. Had a question about some used "zipper back" mags I was considering purchasing.

Been here (several times a day) ever since.
