On a recommendation from a friend, just purchased one from Buds, just curious if anyone has any first hand experience with them? They private label this gun for Sig, just hoping my good friend gave me good advice.

I have the sig version which is a GSG, not great.

Much rather buy the Browning version if I could have a do over.

My dad bought 4 Browning 1911-22s for my brothers and I and my mother. They look fantastic but none of them shoot very well. Very inaccurate and I have trouble operating the grip safety holding on to the pistol in a comfortable firing position.

I guess sometimes the grass only seems greener on the other side!

The Sig/GSG shoots fine. Feel, Fit and Finish are not the best to me.
Maybe a Sig p938-22 would feel better. I know the p938 9mm is very nice.

I have the 3" and the 5" versions. I also bought the extended mag follower to allow an extra 4 rounds in the mags. I have shot both of them suppressed and have been very happy with them. They are sweet little .22's for the price. Both of mine are the tactical versions with the lower rail....



Here's a link to the extended mag follower:
