SIG Hämmerli P240
« on: May 26, 2021, 05:02:24 PM »
So when SIG and Hämmerli decide to collaborate (ok SIG had taken over Hämmerli)



you get this



A precision match pistol in the Hämmerli tradition with a SIG shape and feel, in .38 special wadcutter, a rival to the S&W 52



















It’s not pristine but in good condition. Those are quite rare and pricey, $ 1700 for this one. It’s still at the LGS while I wait for the permit, can’t wait to shoot it, and I already have some ammo for it

When stationed in Germany I got to shoot one of these, but it was in 32 S&W long.  Having owned 3 model 52s over the years they are no match for the Hammerli.

May it shoot well for you always.

Update, I took it to the range for first tests and sighting it in to my liking. However the 25 m range was full so I went straight to the 50 m range



Trigger is amazing, it breaks at 0.8 kg, which is 1.76 lbs

Coincidentally I shot the same score with my 210-6 in .30 Luger



Just before closing I fired six shots hastily at the 25 m range. This gun has potential (or rather the shooter has potential with this gun)



Some more pics

Nice pistol and nice shooting.
