I had a great time at SIG Day last year so I was looking forward to attending this year as well. This time I was accompanied by my friend Dave, shown here with none other than badboybeeson of S&J Hardware.
Both of us came away thinking it was a great job by hosts WGT Consulting and The Lower Trent Valley Fish and Game Club.
WGT’s table of gear
Including this fantastic Nanuk AR15 case up for raffle
Gray Fox Strategic had a display table again and this time I wanted to get a closer look.
From a colour perspective, my favourite was this blue Gryphon…note how the back is black
This custom fitted axe sheath also used the two-tone approach
From a design point of view, I REALLY liked this IWB Ghost
This AR15/pistol mag combo was also very interesting
Alright, now to the range…a selection of some of the handguns…
I have shot quite a few SIGs since the last event so I was very happy to see one that I haven’t shot yet, a P210 (though I have handled a couple before)…needless to say, it shoots very flat!
My friend Dave was very anxious to try the MCX and they were available in two sizes.
He started with the 11.5”, which he found to be too small while the 16” was perfect.
Since I have already shot the 16”, I opted for the short one…again, I prefer the MPX.
Speaking of the MPX
I tried shooting it with the stock folded but I didn’t really like it that way…I think it would have worked well with a bungee cord like the HK SP5 though
Of course I absolutely love it with the stock extended
Dave also tried it both ways…in the end he found the MPX to be a bit front heavy (something that I did not perceive) so he preferred the MCX.
Last year S&J had a display table, this time they were set up at the range with their newest shotgun
Dave liked it a lot
As did I
Badboybeeson shows us how it is done
Per the tradition started last year, we followed up our range trip with a visit to Chuck’s Roadhouse, CDN Gunworx, and Firearms Outlet Canada where Dave bought TWO guns lol!
Thanks again to Sig, WGT Consulting, and the Lower Trent Valley Fish and Game Club for the great day!
