SIG P226 CO2 pellet pistol - any thoughts?

Hi

I had a p226 and p250. The p226 is weighty and I enjoyed it, the p250 was more 'plasticy' but had a more powerful blowback

Had great fun....

However, accuracy was ok with both but as a garden plinker my lad and me enjoyed them both. Defo use flathead pellets tho ok!

If you're ok with bb's though I would change instantly for a Swiss arms 1911 or Umarex p08. Loads more fun, realistic action and loading. Just watch those rebound bb's tho!

If blowback isn't necessary then I'd go Umarex p92 anytime.

I agree re. the comments about authenticity and this goes back to the compromise I mentioned in an earlier post. The SIG is authentic to a certain degree and yes a 1911 blowback, P08 or Walter P38 are a lot more so, especially as controls work in the same manner as those on the originals and the pistols may be field stripped. The down side is having to use BBs or in my case copper coated lead. Balls are less accurate than lead pellets and whilst accurate enough at tin can ranges of 6 yards or so, they do not group as tightly as pellets from a SIG pistol or Crosman PDM9B.

Decisions, decisions....Do as I did and choose both

Has anyone tried the new p320? I like the look of them

I've handled but not fired one. However, that situation is likely to change over the next couple of days
