Default First firearm of 2017

I have fondled this for the better part of two years, IIRC. The store manager offered it to me at a good price today, so I brought it home. A Sig P250 in .40 S&W, with the box, lock, papers, and four spare mags. Not the prettiest Sig made, nor the most popular model, but it is a reliable firearm.

Every time I drop by a Gander Mountain I have them pull a CZ P07 out of the cabinet so I can check it out. I am sure they are wondering if I am ever going to get one but since they charge $100+ more for them than I can get online even after shipping and transfer I doubt they will get my business.

Sometimes waiting does work out.

I don't know if this counts. I bought a Sig 2022 last week but technically I put it on layaway on Dec 31st 2016. So it was either my last purchase of last year (oprox 7hrs before new year) or the first purchase of this year

2 years....that's some patience. The 250 is like a 320 with a hammer? I bet that's a snappy gun in 40.


Me, I'm saving my pennies.... Told my ffl brother to get me one of the new Savage .308 AR's., Wouldn't normally spend that much on a new gun, but since I'm getting it near cost. Wanted the companion rifle for his FP 110 I bought from him years ago.....he put 3 shots in 3/8" with that Savage .308. Can't believe he wanted to sell it.

I'm just waiting to hear that my new Cobra is in. However my first official purchase of 2017 is a Model 10-5 with a 5" barrel. Nice revolver.

My first firearm purchase for 2017 was this excellent condition Model 15-4.







Thanks for viewing!
