Hello fellow enthusiasts, I, not unlike many of you, have developed a slight gun acquisition problem. I have looked my beloved bride square in the eyes on more occasions than I care to lay claim to with the heartfelt statement that goes something like this "Well honey, I finally can say that my collection is complete, I cannot imagine me needing to spend any more money of firearms" and you know what? I thought I meant it! Well at this stage of the game I have stopped offering such hollow statements as I have come to grips with the idea that there is no such thing as enough when it comes to gun purchases.
This brings me to the current thought and topic. I recently came across a Sig Sauer P250 unfired, with night sites, in the original case with the silly little paper sig band on the grip. Now, I had no previous interest in this gun and certainly as a 1911 guy I had no interest in a DAO weapon. However, the price was what I thought to be pretty good at $350.00, so I bought the darn thing. It is chambered in .40 caliber and I have to be honest, it is a little strange. It says Sig Sauer but really bears little resemblance as to feel and general properties of my other Sigs. So, I went to the range and shot this weird gun and I must confess, I was pleased with the overall performance and accuracy. Well, it rivaled that of my 1911's despite the extraordinarily long trigger pull. I have to say that if I judged every gun I have based on value per dollar, this one would top the list. As I am shooting the gun I am giggling to myself "I only paid $350 for this thing". Now I am no gun snob-short of refusing Keltech, Llama, Hi Point etc. but despite what I have read after the acquisition and experience at the range, I really love this gun. I am wondering if anyone else has experience with this particular model and if they felt the same way? As for me, I am keeping mine and would buy a few more at that price if they presented themselves. So those that will post with the negative about their P250's let this serve as my offer to purchase each one for $300. Why $300? Because, I already know I can get one for $350. Make sense? Okay let's hear it..............................
