New SIG 22 pistol
Has anyone shot or even seen and handled this pistol? I'm curious as to how it feels in the hands of a person with slightly larger hands, since it is supposed to be about 90% the size of a 226. I had one of the little Walthers, (scaled down, more or less, 99) but it was small feeling in my hand and I did not shoot it very well. I like the looks of the gun in the pictures I have seen, but around here the gun shops don't even know what I'm talking about. So much for going where people know what is going on![:)]

I saw the Mosquito at the Shot Show, and instantly fell in love. I'm a Sig fan, and I also collect 22's so I was excited. It is smaller than a 226 or 229, but I think it is bigger than the Walther. It seemed to fit my big hand better than my Walther. I have checked everyone of my dealer catalogs and haven't been able to even find a listing for one yet. I believe MSRP was around $350.

Thank goodness the X5 is on the 226 frame! I much prefer the 220 grip so that will save me a few dollars, at least for a little while.[:D]
