This has been a long time coming.
Truth is, I really thought that there might be something wrong with her. The trigger has A LOT of creep in her. And being a German framed 09 model, I was hoping I would get lucky and she would break like glass. But that wasn't to be.....So when I first shot her I knew I might have a little trouble adjusting to a trigger with a lot of creep.
What I didn't expect was just how bad I did. It was so bad I thought there may be something wrong with the crown!
Imagine that lol.....couldn't be me could it????!!
At any rate I talked with a member that I think knows a good bit about Sigs and shooting. In a nutshell he recommended I look at me and not the Sig. So I did. What I found out is that X5 triggers and 1911 triggers can get you off your game so to speak. The triggers on these weapons are so nice, it really makes getting tight groups much easier. So it took me about 3 boxes of shells and paying attention to the fundamentals of shooting - basically disciplining myself to shoot this pistol with any accuracy. So, creepy trigger or not, you can achieve good results if you discipline yourself. And still yet, even though my groups are what I would call decent, I still shoot low and to the left. Im jerking at the trigger and tightening up too much. I think the pics below will show that. And also, to be fair, I was in a rush to complete the last target with my 1911. My dad was rushing me to plant some rose bushes.....and well...I was in a hurry lol. However, I do plan to have Robert Burke do a trigger job and qtr on her.
Btw, targets were at 21 feet.
