Hello from Switzerland

[Scrumbag]

Hi all,

I'm relatively new to pistol shooting having just moved to Switzerland from the UK.

Am a keen hunter: mainly waterfowl with some rough shooting (aka Upland) on the wing and deer with the occasional high seat pig hunt thrown in with a rifle. Also I do like fishing, mainly for trout, grayling, char and pike with spinning rod and fly

Just getting into pistol shooting: have a Sig P226 9mm and a Colt Woodsman. I'm looking to get my first revolver shortly. In fact I'm heading down to my LGS hopefully this week to look at a S&W17-4, Colt Officers Match .22, Colt Trooper MkIII .22 and a Sauer & Sohn competitor.

I must admit having fondled a M17 before, the others will have some way to go to beat it!

Any thoughts to the contrary to the above?

Looking forward to taking part and learning lots!

ATB,

Scrumbag

Thanks folks, much appreciated for making a fella feel welcome. Look forward to chatting with you all.

I don't get state side often enough considering I'm in the oil business but I do have family in Maine (the proper Portland no less ;-) )
