She saw it and said lets go! One hour later I have my first C&R gun. Below are pictures of the actual gun.

Has anyone ever shot one of these? I am going to the range this week with it.
I have a Mauser 1916 from Danzig Germany, used in WWI and the Spanish Civil war and rebored to the "mauser 7mm". I love firing it, have trouble being accurate without using sandbags as it is long as hell.

Also, went crazy since the last time I checked in here.. Now have a WWII M1 carbine, and a bunch of others..
And I have a rock river 20 inch stainless steel barrell with chrome bolt and quad rails on order

How do you like the SR40C?

Is it pretty compact? I'm looking to replace this Sig P290 I purchased because it has a crazy heavy trigger pull (9 pounds). I like the look of that Ruger

Oh, and is it hammer fired or striker fired?

I love it! it is 6.85" in length, 4.61" in height, with a 3.50" barrel. striker-fired and highly accurate.

Very fun to shoot. More maint. then an Ar per say, since there are more parts and they are bigger. Takedown is a bit harder with the recoiling barrel and feed mechanism too.

been a while since I posted some toys, these have been the ones bought in the last 6 months, but I have bought 4 in the last couple of weeks.

And yes the Thompson Drum is the 100 round drum.

Nice! Is this Sig's Stainless model? Slide looks like target and rail models, but doesnt have target sights or rail.

My Sig 1911 Utlra is too wide for the Blackhawk Serpa 1911 holster. Any idea if yours is too wide as well?

It is Sig's full size stainless. Don't know about holster fit since this isn't my carry weapon.
