Only one gun for me: SIG 229 .40cal. I have two of them and one 226 in 9mm. In over
20,000 rounds between all three of them, I have had only one stovepipe and that wasn't
the fault of the gun. I let the slide get dry. Since I switched from oil to lithium on the
slide, it functions like the day I got it and the lithium never dries up or gets depleted. I
respect Glocks. I probably wouldn't buy one but they are a close second to SIGs. Damn
sure wouldn't own another S&W again or buy pimp guns like Taurus or Astra.

Yeah, SIGs don't run all that well dry. Wet is good...

Brian Enos makes / sells a pretty good grease that seems to work well on the Sig. Stays where you put it and doesn't dry up as fast as oil tends to do. I would be careful with the amount applied, but the Sig is pretty forgiving even if you apply too much of it.

Just traded my HK USP for a Super Blackhawk Hunter. Way more practical for me, plus it is stainless.
