Nice report Tangle - I have shot someone else's and did I must say find it a pleasant experience.

Thus far tho my 226 ST still fills the roll of my ideal carry - plus, unless I ''thin the herd'' I doubt I'll be doing much more buying anytime soon. Re mag release aspects - maybe cos my hands are on large size, I find the SIG mag release excellent - from my std grip I can just tweak it with thumb tip and a mag change is potentially very fast (well - for me!).

The ''1911'' mag release situation is for me always the ideal - and I am not so happy (re carry anyways) having anything too different, from choice. I happen to like shooting my SW99 a lot - and for size it is a great lil' gun - but, oh my that mag release is a bummer - not one I regard as instinctive in use - in fact the other alternative I do not mind too much is the heel type, instance my R9, Mak, and even CZ-52.

The BHP of course also is very ''JMB'' and Bersa .380 also similar - these I like for that very reason, among others.

Big thing tho is as ever - what the individual likes and certainly, I have heard minimal bad words re the USP.

Thx again anyways - always good to hear first hand thoughts.

BTW, if you carry a Sig 226ST how come the handle, P95Carry? P95 is a Ruger isn't it?
Haha - Tangle - this is one of those ''I'm stuck with it'' deals!!! I did carry the P95 for quite some time - mostly in a sho rig or Fobus paddle but - as we know, we move on to try or prefer other things.

I transferred to snub carry for a good length of time, thinking then of going small - so M85 and then SP-101 did duty. I briefly went back to semi - using BHP which I like a lot but felt drawn back to something DA/SA and thus came the SIG!

I should now be 226STCarry - but hey - I am stuck with the old ID I think - keeps folks guessing! :smile:
