Springfield XD

I recently got the pleasure of going shooting with a buddy of mine this past weekend who owns a Springfield XD .45 compact. This gun has a very tall slide which makes it look a little funny. I don't get around to shooting much .45 ACP so it was a bit of a step up from my usual 9mm handguns. The magazines for this gun have a nice stainless steel shell which I enjoyed and also looks nice. The slide release is very stiff and will clearly need some time to break in. A feature that I have never seen before was the safety on the back of the grip. Aesthetically I am not a big fan of these guns but they do shoot great!

Sig Sauer Mosquito

It's been quite some time since my last post so I figured I'd do a quick one on this little guy. The Sig Sauer Mosquito a little .22 caliber pistol I picked up used. This gun is fun to shoot when it actually shoots, I am not blaming the gun on this the ammo I used wasn't very good. I feel as if most small .22 ammo isn't going to be super reliable. The nice things about this gun is you get the feel of a Sig Sauer handgun but only have to feed it cheap ammo. Worth grabbing if you want a cheap Sig.
