    Dropped by my LGS yesterday and found they were having a Sig Sale,
    P250', P229s P220's P226, wait, P226s'? Yep four of them and one E2

    So went back tonight with my used P226 I just got and traded it back
    in on a new P226 E2, 3 mags, blue box, at $799

    After adding up the cost of a full refinish on the used on, it needed the frame
    done, and having a complete internal refurb and upgrade net net net I ended up
    saving several hundred over the total work I was going to do and
    have a new P226E2 :D

    This is a 40, you can do 357 Sig to a 40 with just a barrel change.
    I also have a 9mm conversion barrel for the other sig I traded that
    I kept for it to make it a 9mm

    9mm is cheap ammo to purchase compared to the rest and that's why I kept my Berreta 92G in 9mm.

    Yep $19.97 for 100 rnds federal at y'all mart

    Also have a guy that reloads for about same price

    I am looking at a Dillon 650 with case feeder
    used and a 9mm and 40cal die set and
    starting to load my own...

    Although I'll have to reduce cigar use
    during loading....

    Both might be good, less smoke, more bullets...

    Yea the cigar not a good idea when reloading. Used to do a lot of reloading years ago, may have to do it again.

    I got two 40 cal Glocks a model 22 and a model 27

    Then I got the Glock model 30 which is the 45
    I'd like to sell the Glock 45 or the beretta.

    Don't know what all you know. I seen where they was puttin prices on it.
    Thought it might have a link you would like.

    I bought a Glock at the time cause I trades one pistol for another and wanted a pistol I could carry all the time in the business and not have to clean and didn't have to worry about it jammin.
