Re: Your worst Gun

RECIT wrote:I have not ever had a straight lemon. I do own a SIg Mosquito that is not all that reliable. It will FTfire and FTeject at least once on every magazine. I have several mags for it so its not a mag issue, have tried all kinds of .22 I can find with no luck. I just don't expect it to go bang every time so I am not let down by it anymore.
I bought my wife a Sig Mosquito - of the Pink variety... She hasn't shot it yet, but I have - it was 100% reliable for me with everything I shot through it. I started off with CCI Mini Mags, then proceeded to the Winchester rounds that come in a wooden box. Very accurate, and went 'bang' every time. That being said, I let some boys shoot it that were at the range that day with some friends of mine - they had constant FTE - I had to pry the spent bullet out of the barrel on several occasions. Each time, I'd load up a whole magazine and proceed to rapid-fire the entire magazine without a problem. Gave it back to them, same problems. Once I told them to stop holding it like a little girl, they had 100% reliability. Just sayin'.... :)

I love the feel of the Mosquito - not too small, not too big. Wish it had better sights though.

Re: Your worst Gun

Davis Industries .380 - nickel plated (or Chrome?) - jammo-matic with a cracked slide. I've heard of these things actually exploding in people's hands. Busts my thumb knuckle open too. It's tucked away in a quiet corner of my safe, never to see the light of day.
