I had the previous version, the Sig Mosquito, and it was a pretty well built little .22. Only got rid of it since mags are impossible to find (besides online) and it only having 10 rounds made range days annoying as a guy with just one mag. Also HAD to use CCI minimags or Rem Thunderbolts, otherwise it wouldn't ever cycle.
That was my understanding of the Mosquito as well. I believe that is the purpose for the added spring with this one. As soon as the weather is better I'm going to test it out with various 22s.
Previous owner had sent his in, sig didnt fix it but they did send him a new slide, which is kind of cool because i keep one side sighted for 50 and one for one hundred. Re-contouring and polishing the feed ramp got it working acceptably for a range and practice gun. Heavy trigger and DA/SA are good training aids. That being said, better options out of the box, now. ONLY runs on bulk Rem (fine by me). even chokes on CCI.
There certainly are better options and this is something of a dinosaur nowadays. For the price however, I still think you can't go wrong. Especially if you want a DA/SA 22 for training.

Its absolutely not a good pistol ..as a guy who fixed these at a shop there junk...there a gun that ill agree with
There is a person on ebay that sells +4 followers. Ditto on only running on bulk Remington.
