Default These guns really do multiply......




50 feet, three 5 shot sessions.The fliers are from me starting in Double Action. I still gotta work on that trigger stroke some.



Bottom line,these 3rd Gen guns rock.Took delivery of my 5904 this morning, and two hours later I hit the range with it. There were about 6 other shooters around me today, so I was half focused and half freaked out waiting for some yahoo to put a bullet somewhere it shouldn't be. Once the lanes cleared out I got the range to myself, and was able to turn in that semi-decent group.

Question:what's a great way to shoot these things in DA? Ive found that of all the guns ive shot and own the S&W's have the heaviest DA pull ive ever shot, its even heavier than a Model 66 Revolver's DA pull.

Snap caps and lots of deliberate practice. Compared to my P226, all of my 3rd gens have cream puff DA pulls. The Sig does have the sweetest SA though.
