The Sig P290 is the correct model for what you're referring to I should know, I have one.

But I'm looking to sell it because I hate the trigger pull

I want to replace it with a Kahr PM9 (technically, PM9094N for the black slide and night sights) because I like the striker fire guns a lot more (That's what my Springfield Armory XDm-9 is)


You made me look in the safe and you are correct

Are you referring to how damn hard it is to pull the trigger?

It's not the 9 pound trigger pull that gets me, it's that when the hammer drops, there's still a fraction of an inch of pull still left, and the trigger pull drops to about half an ounce, so I end up jerking the gun backwards.

Plus, you have to let the trigger completely back out to seat the trigger to engage the next round.

It's just awkward, especially with my big clumsy hands.

I do have to aim extremely low as a pull up. As much as it cost and it being a sig; I just expected more.

I want to shoot a solo but these guys around here don't have a clue what one even looks like. And at that price tag...I must shoot before I buy.

Anyone have suggestions on uppers for an AR? I'm building an AR and have a complete lower set up already. I'm a left handed shooter so I do not know of many uppers that have shell ejection for a lefty. I've become used to living in a right handed world so I'm not dead set on a left handed set up.

I was ABOUT to suggest stag arms but apparently all their left hand uppers are on backorder for 1 YEAR!

Im really at a loss for words at their tactics.

How many more MILLIONS of firearms have just been put into circulation

Darwin would be rolling in his grave

Today I passed on a Colt 6920 Magpul edition for $2,500. Wondering if I made a mistake?

You may want to converse with Robert (SSE 4 2SS) as he is also trying to find a left-handed upper for his AR-15. But I believe he's in the same boat as you in terms of not being able to find one

Yeah, I saw on Stag-Arms' site that they were 1 year behind on their orders. That's pretty staggering. The government thinks they're doing the "right" thing by trying to limit the guns available yet, if you truly looked at it, they have effectively flooded the market with new merchandise.

Stupid Insanity is the only phrase that can correctly describe this whole mess...

Just ordered 10 boxes of 38 special, 10 boxes of 6.5X55 Swedish and 30 boxes of 9mm Luger. It is so hard to find AMMO now. You all need to stop panicking so that I can buy more.
