SIG Sauer P226 X-Five Open Combo

Very realistic Good craftsman Handles well

The cap to lodge the CO2 cartridge is really difficult to screw The blowback mechanism "destroys" the red dot. Better used with iron sights ONLY

good for plinking in the backyard NOT for competition shooting

SIG Sauer, the new firearm for our armed forces. One of the leading manufacturers of the highest tech equipment on the planet. This gun shoots all day. It makes you feel like an action hero in a movie maybe Neo in the Matrix. Accurate Powerful Sights Safety Slide release Trigger Magazine Rail on dust cover Pseudo compensator on barrel Color STEEL..... This feels like you spent every penny as wisely as anyone could. This should last a lifetime and be handed down among family and friends Grip

Uhhhhh Nothing! It would be nice if it was cheaper but that would be like complaining you spent too much on a Porsche. If you can afford the car you dont complain. If you can 100 dollars on an airgun you wont do any better than this

Get one or two or three. I have given one to a close friend. I think whoever receives one as a gift will believe you are the real Santa Clause.

THE SIGHTS. The rear sight is totally adjustable and that's the main reason I bought this pistol. Also, just like on the real X-five open, there are no white dots on the sights. I appreciate that since I do more bulls eye shooting than action type shooting. THE TRIGGER. In single action the trigger is smooth and light. It's a good trigger to teach a new shooter with. ACCURACY. The accuracy is better than I expected. About 1 inch at 10 yards standing. FUNCTION. It's cool that the ammo is presented at the top of the magazine and the ammo is chambered when the slide cycles just like in a real gun. Disassembly is just like a real gun too.

The magazine is a huge pain to load. you can lock the follower down but it doesn't leave a space to load the BBs. You must hold the follower down beyond the locking point with one hand while loading with the other. Then, when you put the magazine into the pistol it doesn't "click" into place. I'm always afraid that its going to fall out. It never has but I wish that there was some tactile or audible signal telling me the magazine is secure. The build quality can be a little chintzy in places. For example, the slide lock lever is sharp and gouges the grip when it's used and the rear sight blade hangs crocked off the back of the sight. While I generally like the sights I do wish there was a little more air between the rear notch and the front post while aiming.

I wanted to get my shooting fix without spending $100 a month on ammo so, since BBs are basically free, I thought I'd get a BB gun. I watched lots of videos about different BB guns but most don't shoot straight. It seems that if I buy a gun that shoots 4 inches to the right and 3 inches high and there is no way to correct that it's a defective product! So when I found this gun with its adjustable rear sight I gave a sigh of relief. Metal construction, adjustable sights and it's a SIG. (although I'm sure SIG Sauer had nothing to do with this pistol.) It's loads of fun to shoot and I can shoot for hours without feeling like I'm throwing a handful of change down range with every shot. My teenage son loves shooting it and it really is a great pistol for new shooters to learn with. It can be a little rough around the edges but it's got it where it counts. In the shooting! It's fun and it's accurate enough for me to show off to my kids and accurate enough for the kids to develop good skills.
