    Excellent!
    The trigger was the reason I recommend the Jericho over the 229.
    But it looks like a marriage made in heaven what you both have! ;)

    As for the slide: quite right, more practice will also get your muscles stronger. Good lubrication will help, too.

    So happy for you! But you gave me problems posting that picture because now I want to go get the one I almost bought 2 weeks ago...LOL
    I mean.... just do it. You won’t regret it. Your wallet might, but I’m so ready to hit the range it ain’t funny. I’m like a kid at Christmas hahah!

    It was at gulf coast guns in Milton but they sold it. You can always ask if they can get another in. They’re awesome.

    Thank you.
    I don't live locally.
    I missed this from Classic Firearms: I received an email and it was already sold out when I went to purchase.

    I love Military surplus guns so I am on the waiting list again for this:

    Looks identical



    There is a difference between the II and the II-M.
    The one that i have is the M. It’s a shorter, all steel version. You can see a side by side from manual in this picture. I then put my gun and a screenshot of the video side by side. The one in that video is a II.

    The trigger is amazing!
    Hubby ended up getting the 229 that we were looking at but he is totally jealous of the trigger.
    This one was new. Whereas the other Jericho I looked at was refurbished. The slide and slide release is super stiff and gonna need some love. Oh well...Guess we will just have to spend a little more time down range.

    Solid choice

    Between your 2 choices I would definitely go with the Sig P-229. That being said a Glock 26, M&P Shield, or even better Sig P365 would be a better choice for EDC CCW. Good luck!
