It's because you were shooting 9mm those are designed for a woman to shoot. Get a .45 and you will dead on. :peep:

Actually get a CZ or even a 1911- something with a decent trigger, and I'll bet his groups improve.

When I went to the range Wednesday, it was about 32°F. I was absolutely amazed at my groups - with and without (thin) gloves. No matter how tight my grip, the extra interfaces of the gloved hands allowed movement. At 25 yards - from dinner plate size down to coffee cup size.

You're right. He just needs something better than a Sig Legion. :facepalm2:

OK point taken, I've never shot a Legion, but standard DA Sig 226/229 triggers are not good, IMHO. Rather than upgrade mine, I sold them.

Loaded 500 rds of 5.56 onto stripper clips. Once you switch to strippers, it's hard to go back. :bigsmile:

I got a nice long box from the UPS guy . . . so I unwrapped it and leaned it up against the tree. Merry Christmas to me! :thumbsup2:

It's a .58-caliber Zouave reproduction, in very nice shape.
