Your thoughts?

I am interested in hearing some of your thoughts on the Sig Sauer Mosquito.

Um, why?

Had 1. Fed good, cheap fun. Not something I would carry, though. Daughter wants another one because she liked it better than the Walther P22. Sadly, I kept the P22 instead. She'll get over it, I guess.

But it was mostly problem free. I had the occasional problem of FTF, but not any more than the P22.

I would like the 2 posters above to elaborate. I am curious.

So was the p22 any good. I am curious I was just looking into buying one of these. I am glad I caught this post. What is a good alternative then? thanks...

I have the P22 to use during instruction and my kids use it on the range. It is great.....as long as you feed it "premium" ammo. I use CCI Mini-mags ($7 for 100rd box at Wally World) and it feeds/fires 100% of the time with them. One I started using CCI Mini-mags in it haven't had a FTF/F (feed/fire) since....about 1500 rounds ago.

I've heard the same about the Mosquitos.....have to use the "premium" ammo and it works fine.

If you are looking into a .22 look into the Ruger MKII/MKIII. "bulletproof"

I am interested in hearing some of your thoughts on the Sig Sauer Mosquito.

My local indoor range - gun store, offered to sell me a Sig Mosquito for
$75. Reason being, it had been back to Sig three times, and it still would
not work.
I have heard however from some people, they will work only if you use the
best quality ammo. Don't know that for a fact.

Worse .22 I ever bought. Jamomatic. Bought it for a suppressor I had. Never even got to really enjoy it. Sent it back and received the same crap functioning.

Mine wouldn't even run the good stuff. Couldn't get through a mag of CCI without jams and misfires.

I've had that Mosquito, a couple of P22s, a Beretta 87, some of the .22 conversions, etc. Most of the little plinkers at one point or other, but I always go back to the Ruger MK's and the Buckmarks. Best little .22's for the money.

Well...we seem to have different experiences to report. I have a Sig Mosquito and shoot it often and I've have nothing but good things to say. I'm glad to have it. Having said that.......the market has become flooded with 22 caliber handguns and they are all great pieces. I spent most of today shopping, looking at the new 1911-22 lR hangun recently released to the market. If you're in the market for a new gun look at the Sig 1911-22-FDE in range of 330 to 400.00. It's a fullsize 1911 but in 22 caliber. Others include the GSG, Colt and Browning. Mosquito is great but the others are even better for about the same money.

I failed to mention Rugers new P22 autoloader. Also the mark III target pistols are fantastic too. My wife shoots a Walther P22 and loves it ...........

Maybe I should throw out there that mine was a very early model. Can't speak on current production runs.
