rounds are more ex for firearms. ammo vs pellet.

I've fired the SigSauer P226 before.

I was actually covering safety for the officers' pistol shoot. As it turns out, there were several unexpended rounds after all the officers had finished shooting.

My Encik gave me an impromptu technical handling lesson and allowed me to shoot a few rounds. Hoo-ah! Mr. Green

LazerLordz SG

The P226 is a good piece of metal craft.

I was taught to repair and maintain it..see till sian. Laughing Too bad we didn't pose with it before ORD for a photo. Twisted Evil

Handled the P226. Nice feel, but rather heavy I thought. Quickly learned that it's actually really hard to cock the hammer with just you thumb like you see in the movies, or rather in my case, impossible, ha ha ha...

But the action felt very smooth. Never got the chance to actually fire it though. Sad

Thought it might be a tad heavy for asians though.

Gordonator SG

hehehe. Cool

LazerLordz SG

The size is not suitable for Asians, which is why we also use the Glock and the USP.I had the chance to hold and sample the sliding/cocking mechanism, it's more suitable for our hand.
