You see Gaston, I was walking through on of your stocking dealers a few weeks ago when my eye spied a beautiful Sig P226 on reverse two tone. Oh, how the pistol caused me to remember my younger days as a patrol officer when I was 20 pound lighter, had not developed a thirst for the drink (coffee, that is) and carried a softly glowing nickel finish P226. Other than that first trigger pulllllllllllllllllllllllll, it was a fine gun.

But then Gaston, I changed agencies and soon became endowed, err, issued a rough and tumble G22. While I first held it like one of my kid's pooped through diapers, I grew to like, nay, love the platform. What a trigger and so quick on the reset!

I was smitten and eight of your sirens later, I carry on with them. But I digress.

It was, in that store of temptations and all manner of things that would get me no wifely favors for months, that I handled the P226. The ceiling tiles opened and a light shined upon me. Well, it was the HVAC repair fellow but you understand, surely you must.

The Sig siren sang about coolness, wicknedness, the joys of metal frames, hell and back reliability, and beauty. I could not resist so I laid out monies to take it home and remind myself of the pleasures of a first trigger pullllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll. Indeed, at the temple of lead, I fed it and learned that while it shot wonderfully, it did not hold the same pleasures as my homely beauties of polymer. Indeed, it was a sight to behold but something about the first pullllllllllllllllllllllll.

I strayed Gaston, I strayed. I strayed off the path of righteousness and polymer kool aid. I struck myself with my the "you spending idiot" frying pan. I hang my head and beseech you with the offering to buy yet another of your creations. I will enjo, err, endure the lack of wifely favors for a time in order to return to where I should have never left.

Will you forgive me? Will you find the Sig siren a new hunting ground?

Forever, and ever, aww crap. Run dear Gaston, she discovered the Sig. I may need to beseech you for sanctuary inside the wall of Smyrna.

Amen.

It only counts if you sell a Glock to get a different gun imo. My next pistol might not be a Glock but I wouldn't trust my life to it like I do my Glock.

Just buy another Glock and all will be forgiven.

HAHA... Good read.

Sigs always get me too, but every time I shoot my P226 it reminds me how much I dislike the DA/SA and long trigger reset. :dunno:

Fantastic pistols though.


Oh, and...

I can't say anything...I traded my G27 for a Beretta 92, and like the Beretta a whole lot better. (of course I still love the rest of my Glocks!)

There will be a few of us sinners in Hell then, cause I sinned for a Sig too! I still have one Glock though...........the G19, the best anyway.

(Thanks for the laugh) I'm the other way around.. I'm hoping all my SA 1911s, BHPs and such don't get jealous at me for me re-entry into Glockdom (G22) :embarassed:

Wifey? She's a gunner, too. I'm building (not her first) match grade CAR15 right now, and have her interested in a S & W Performance Shop .357 magnum :supergrin:

That's the trick, guys, get the female units into shooting. They might even be able to back you up a bit on Zombie Day, too
