Range Report: SIG 238, S&W E-Series 1911, Colt Combat Elite, and S&W 629 Snubbie

I went shooting with a retired female NYPD Officer that has become a close friend. She was retired when she was shot in the hand and she still shoots. She just got a SIG 238 and it is an awesome little gun. She tried it out today and now I really want the 9mm version (the 938).

This is what went to the range today:




And here is the 238 vs. as FS 1911:






Here is the SIG 238 in her hands at 7 yards with Hornady Z-maxx ammo. She said that the 238 recoils less than the Bersa even though the 238 is significantly smaller.

All my shooting was done at 14 yards:

I shot my new S&W 1911 E-Series up against my Colt Combat Elite. I actually think the S&W might be more accurate.It is grouping tighter but it is also grouping consistently left for me. I need to drift my rear sight.

and the target after I got it off the floor





All-in-all about 800 rounds spent today.

Any day at the range is fun for me. It can be cold and windy and I'm still having fun.

Any day you can smell the powder burn. Sounds like a fun day and a fine assortment of handguns. What is the weight on that 44 mag?

Its actually pretty heavy for a snubbie model and clocks in a 41oz. about 2oz heavier than my 5" Combat Elite. But the weight makes heavy loads much more controllable. I had a scandium 44 from S&W first. The keyword there is had.
