You used to get these one chapter a week at the theater – before or in between the feature films – you gotta keep them coming back for more – Enjoy!
I may have posted this awhile back – if I did YOU can enjoy it again!
Have Fun! – Run the Gun! – and remember – Fish Heads are Cheap!!
Sig and the P250 – how Sig managed to screw up this bad I have never figured out. The P250 was marketed as a buy one then simply buy a caliber exchange kit and now you have two different calibers/frames/barrels/magazines but the fire control module pulls out of the frame – it has the serial number on it – and you have a different gun – cool . . .
And if you wanted a full size frame/barrel/slide set up – you simply up-sized – or you could go from full size to the compact . . .
Just one issue. I spent 3 plus years signed up for the “notify when in stock” thing with 4 different vendors – and then the P250 simply went away – gone – out of production. Which is a shame – the P250 has the best factory double action trigger I have ever fired – bar none. It is as smooth as any factory S&W revolver trigger there is – and I have fired MANY Smith revolvers. Hell folks, to be honest? – it’s as good as most “tuned/customized” double action revolvers. 4lb 1oz smooth as glass – no stacking – no “wall” – just smooth as glass pull right through to the break. The pistols are still out there on the used market – CLICK TO GO RIGHT TO GUNBROKER! – I will stop whining now and get back on point – LOL!
Footprint on the P250 compact is just kibbles & bits bigger than the P232 – from the bottom of the magazine to the top of the sights is just under 5 1/2 inches and from the tip of the beaver tail to the end of the barrel is 7 1/4 inches
Talking weight the P250 (and when we talk weight – remember folks it was all over the place with all the different calibers and frame sizes) compact in 45acp (God’s chosen caliber as handed down to St. Browning – LOL!) – Empty 26.6oz compared to the P232’s 23.8oz – the majority of that is slide mass – is not too bad.
When you load it up with 9 + 1 of 230 grain full metal jacket – 33.9oz. The recoil impulse changes as you run through the magazine – similar to the way a Glock 21 recoil changes.
Sig did a real good job with recoil management with the P250 in this configuration – some of the smaller guns in out there in 45acp are not nice to shoot – the P250 in this configuration is really decent – and dare I say- Fun to shoot!
With an Alien Gear outside the waist band holster to spread the weight out and tuck it up against you it’s quite easy and comfortable to carry and conceal . . .
Bottom Line? If your curious – they are still out there on the used market in a variety of frame/caliber configurations – and they are steadily increasing in value – I mean you can tell your Chief Financial Officer/wife/significant other that you are making a solid financial investment – Good Luck with that! I still have a friend’s wife that gives me the evil eye to this day – I told him if he couldn’t decide which pistol to buy – simply buy them both – I’ll be damned if he didn’t and then threw me under the bus – but he was already there as his wife had thrown him under the bus for listening to me – we actually had a good time there under the bus – planning and hatching our next nefarious plot . . .
This last picture is there for YOUR enjoyment – isn’t that P232 just an elegant piece??

Relax Greg! – this is not Asian girls in bubble baths – ROTFLMAO! . . .
So everybody got a look at the newest family member yesterday – and in case you missed it . . .
Let’s take a closer look and have our bath, shall we?
Throughout this whole thing – can you see the two things you are not seeing??
Ready to jump in the tub – Greg!! – Just relax – OK?
This was bought from a big box store – sold as used . . .
The rail inserts in the frame are consistent with manual slide cycling – the light rubbing on the barrel is consistent with manual slide cycling . . .
Scrubbed the barrel and underside of the slide . . .
Zero gunpowder residue – zero scuff marks on the barrel – just light rub marks – this thing has never been fired except for the factory test fire . . .
I’m about to fix that – I will run a hundred rounds through this just to make sure of function – I know – it’s a tough job – the sacrifices I make for you folks . . .
All cleaned/lubed and ready to go to the range – OH BOY!
Really Bruce?? Another 9mm – Really? Several reasons behind the purchase – the primary one is my Blushing Bride has wanted to try a red dot on her CZ75 – CGW does this on a regular basis – not a cheap date by any stretch – but before we mill on her CZ75 she is wanting to try a red dot for 500 or so rounds – and here is a platform to do that with – already has the optic cut on the slide – comes with 5 different mounting plates that fit just about every red dot out there and has the blank plate so if she decides to go ahead with the conversion we can take the optic off this and drop it on the CZ and put the blank plate back on this – see – it makes sense to me and most importantly it fits in her head!
The pen I’m using for a pistol “prop”? A Christmas gift from the chicken rancher – he makes them on his lathe in his man shed – Cool – Huh??
And as for YOU Greg – I’m gonna tease you bad – Asian girl in the bath tub – but NOT a bubble bath!! – LOL . . .
Have Fun! – Run the Gun! – and remember – Fish Heads are Cheap!!
Love these serials – Enjoy!
Republic Pictures only made about a zillion or so of the serials . . .

What have YOU done for the good of humanity in the last year? What have YOU done for the good of humanity this year?
I have already put forth a compassionate effort this year – I have brought a poor abandoned orphan into our loving home environment . . .
You weren’t expecting a straight line – were you??
Have Fun! – Run the Gun! – and remember – Fish Heads are Cheap!!
Good stuff here folks – Enjoy some classic shows heading into the new year . . .
Have Fun! – Run the Gun! – and remember – Fish Heads are Cheap!!
Let’s do a kind of wrap up of the whole Christmas/New Years season thing with this from Sleepcore . . .
Have Fun! – Run the Gun! – and remember – Fish Heads are Cheap!!
4 different takes on the song for you folks – Which one do YOU like the best??
Here’s one I really like . . .
This one is good – – but it has just a wee bit too much symphony orchestra “stuff” for my taste . . .
If you are going with bagpipes – go with the best – IMHO!
And for so many of us folks out here – it simply is not New Years until you here it “officially” from Guy Lombardo and his Royal Canadians . . .
Here is a good explanation of the song – it even starts with Guy Lombardo and his Royal Canadians . . .
Have a Good New Year – Have Fun! – Run the Gun! – and remember – Fish Heads are Cheap!!
This one is a real good assortment – Enjoy!

Unless you grew up in a vacuum – you really should recognize this first one . . .
And for you “Book ’em Danno” fans here are all the various opening credits to Hawaii Five-0 . . .
As you peruse through these different hits – You will be like “Wait a minute – I know that song!” . . .
Were they popular? The Ventures outsold the Beatles 2 to 1 in Japan . . .
The Ventures pretty much set the pace for the guitar “genre” – they were “It” . . .
Hit after hit after hit . . .
Just about every song they did – either original or a cover – became a hit for them . . .
And of course . . .
This one is just one of my favorite songs of any genre – it’s actually slotted into multiple soundtracks that play in my head . . .
And a little bonus for YOU – and yes Shortstack – we all know YOU for the guitar head that YOU are – LMAO!
