Guns, Dogs and Blades QnA
Checked one off the bucket list this week. I’ve always wanted an Sig P210 since I lived in Switzerland 30 years ago and had the opportunity to shoot a real military version. It was the Swiss army service pistol and is highly regarded. They have a reputation of being the most accurate 9 mm pistol available. In the states, the real ones would go between three to $5000. Couple years ago, Sig introduced a civilian version of it, and I thought that I might finally be able to fulfill the dream . I wandered the local gun shop this week and they had a P210 Target in the used gun cabinet with a decent price on it. I asked him if they had any room on the price and my surprise took a couple hundred dollars off. The pistol is used but you can’t tell it. There’s no rub marks on the breech face and it is in perfect condition and came with four mags and the original box. I got it for half of what a new one sells for. The two stage trigger is excellent to say the least, and I am looking forward to putting a lot around of rounds through it.
The frosting on top is a used 50th anniversary Ruger 10/22 Sporter with a nice clean walnut stock. I’ve never had a 10/22 but I’ve always been at the belief that everyone should own one at some point in their life since it is very ubiquitous. I’m trying to avoid the temptation to replace everything with aftermarket parts. I think I’m going to keep this one in original condition and build a heavy barrel target/plinker with aftermarket parts for use with my new Mask silencer.
