Not sure if this has already been addressed but whats the feed back on the SIG. MOSQUITO ? . Its the next gun in my " sights "
 
Its a good gun, its not the best but its ok. The only issue I had with mine was a few failures to feed, but that's the magazine not the gun. Keep it clean and it will work fine. CCI Stingers work great in it and are recomended.

Is the trigger pull ridiculously heavy ?
read on another site a guy was estimating 12 lbs pull on the double action. This has to be an exageration. Is it adjustable?
 
I shoot my brother's occasionally and it is fussy about ammo when not perfectly clean, after 200 rnds the problems begin. It is a little on the tedious side to disassemble compared to my beretta neos which works flawlessly nomatter what. The sig. looks and feels good though, the rail is handy for toys. The issues I have seen were rounds not chambering or not clearing and getting trapped in the slide and this happens alot.

There are better guns for a few bucks more or less

yep, you may look at the CZ 75 Kadet, not picky on ammo even after 500-600rounds in the same day. (from my experience...) sure the CZ is a little bit expensive... but it's a good .22 pistol.

If you like the Sig style, you'll love the CZ design also... IMO :)
 
+1 for the CZ Kadet.
I have the conversion kit which I use with my CZ SP-01. It's very accurate (I get 1.5" groupings off-hand on a good day), and very reliable, even with target ammo (other .22LR pistols often require high-velocity ammo for reliable feeding).
 
Had mine for 2 weeks and 1 range outing. Wouldn't run right so I got rid of it pretty quick. Some here on CGN have some that are trouble free. I wasn't one of them. I tried using CCI MiniMags, AE (both), Dynapoints, Fed Bulk and CCI SV and no joy. I really can't recommend it....

Took 2000 rounds to get mine to the point where it would get through an entire magazine without jamming. I wish my double action was 12 pounds, that would be a nice change from the 15ish I have right now. Has to be one of the most poorly engineered pistols I have ever seen. Safety has fallen off several times, barrel screw needs to be tightened every 400 rounds... If you have the time and patience to put up with a jammomatic for the first few thousand rounds, are handy with Loctite and tolerate crappy accuracy, the Mosquito is the pistol for you!

I fed mine Stingers once. First round had a case head separation. Was a real ##### to clear out of the chamber. Don't shoot them. Only shoot CCI Mini-mags.

Save yourself the headaches and get a Buckmark.
 
Many thx

This is why i like this site , well this and all the photo's of wives & women in cammo . anyway off topic. I don't have time for a jamomatic life is just to dam busy and any time I can get to the range I want to be enjoyable , Many thx for info.
 
Alright, I finally got to test this one out. I have a 9mm P226, but since it is Sunday I could not get ammo for it. The SIG Mosquito Sport shot very well today. I put 400 rds through it with only one problem, one of the rounds did not go off (it was hit but a dud). I used different kinds of ammo, and the gun shot it all. 320 of the shots where made with the cheapest Federal Amercian Eagle ammo and the gun kept on going.

I was expecting to have it jam every second shot, but it just didnt. I am happy to have risked this purchase. :D
 
If you go to Rimfire Central there is a lot of info on these. Most owners love them. The first ones out seemed to have had a lot of problems and lately they seem to be good.
