I finally got around to taking the Sig P250 to the range the other day, when we were checking out my daughters CA 38.
It's a gen 1 model, I don't know the age or anything as her husband bought it used. I ran about 4 mags through it without a hitch. The gun shot a little to the left at times, but I think that was due to my trigger finger sliding around on the trigger from being a little oily. Most shots were inside the 8 ring with several in the X ring, on the standard B27 sillo0hette target.
It fired every type of ammo I fed it, Hydra Shoks, Remington UMC HP, WWB, and some Sellier & Beloit. It seems to be a fine reliable gun. Recoil was pretty light. The gun is a bit heavy, all metal, which helps soak up the recoil.
I know her husband was proud of it. It came with a custom holster and a holder for 2 mags, it had 4 mags that came with it, and she threw in a very nice cleaning kit. I gave her $450 for it. Probably could have got one for less, but she needed money so I didn't try to negotiate or anything.
I also took the CW40 and checked out the ported barrel. It helped reduce muzzle flip, not as much as I had hoped, but it did help some. It had been awhile since I had been to the range. So was nice to test these out.
My "upgraged" Boberg didn't fare so well, and is probably going back to the factory. I probably should have stripped and cleaned it, before taking it to the range, but I figured it got a good cleaning during the upgrade, and was well lubed when it came back. Probably over lubed, and caused some gunk to get caught up in the feed mechanism. It wasn't lifting the cartridges high enough to line up with the barrel. And kept jamming them against the bottom of the barrel. Anyway, I'm sure they will want it back to see what is causing the problem. Arne is very serious about his guns being reliable, so even if I can fix it, I'll probably go ahead and send it back, so maybe they can prevent others from having the same problem. Their customer service is one of the best I've dealt with. I can probably get them to throw in a couple spare mags for my trouble, and the 40+ mile round trip to the UPS main office. The smaller offices around town won't accept firearms, they have to be taken to the main office.
