Range Rescue

Finished my range session today and walked by the used case as I was heading to the door. Stopped dead in my tracks. What's this? Not the usual Hi-Point, SCCY, M&P v1, M&P 40, Shield, or LCR but an excellent condition German frame P229 in .40 for $429. First classic line Sig I've seen in the used case at this particular range. No-rail and thin trigger. Perfect, as I had a standard trigger at home that needs a P229 to go into! No Sig case but did have 3 mags. She came home with me.

Rescuing lost P229s is admirable. (y)

Wow, how far 40 has fallen! It's turning into a 9mm polymer world in handguns.

“Steal” classification cannot be designated until photos have been provided. For now, it’s “Pending Steal” status. 😉

Right now it seems that no one wants handguns in 40 caliber no matter who made them or when they were made. You lucked out with that giveaway price. We've watched the demand for 40 caliber go up and down and it looks like an amusement park ride over the years. Right now it is at the bottom, and looks like it will stay there for some time.

I Agee. I was recently able to pick up 1K rounds of 40 for ~33 cents round shipped. Not great, but less expensive than 9/45 and just as fun to shoot at the range.

I’m not a huge fan of Blazer but $330 shipped is a very good price.

I Agee. During these times and availability, for range use, I'm good with it.
