Well within the last 2 months i have purchased the Sig Mosquito at 370.00, ruger 22/45 mkIII at 289.00, and the browning buckmark camper at 329.00, have had the chance to shoot all 3 pistols, I first bought the sig mosquito and took it to the range, tried both recoil springs, fired well over 1000 rounds and had nothing but problem after problem with ftf's,ftl's,ftf, found out the only ammo the thing would shoot right was the cci mini mags, heck it even went back to sig for 2 weeks, nothing done, well needless to say i parted with the sig and got a new ruger 22/45 mkIII, took it to the range and well over a 1000 rounds now the gun has never missed a beat except for 1 misfire, probably due to a faulty remington thunderbolt, with the 4 1/2" fixed sighted barrel the gun proved to be more accurate than the sig mosquito, which i have put 8 different loads through both guns, the ruger eats everything i have put through it . The browning buckmark camper with the best adjustable sights ive found on a 22 auto so far proved to be the most accurate of the 3 pistols but compared to the ruger with fixed sights, if it had the adjustables it probably would give it a great run for the money, i have so far to put 150 rounds thru the browning using 2 different brands of ammo, no problems whatsoever, it ate everything very happily and is an awesome gun to shoot, the grip is a very pleasant, as is the ruger but like the browning just a little better, weight wise the browning and the ruger are about the same. Iam just tickled pink with the ruger and browning both, they are both awesome pistols, as for the sig mosquito, i have cussed it all im going to and am glad i got rid of it, i'm sure there are those that sware by it and there are those that haven't had any problems with theres, but mine proved to be the worst 370.00 i ever spent on a pistol. it would a been alright if i just wanted to shoot cci mini mags, 4.97 for 100 rounds, but i like to buy the bulk 500 rounds for 9.64, which the ruger and browning just love. point is i guess the guns should shoot anything you put through them case in point ruger and browning. as like any other gun you wanna be able to shoot a mixture of different ammo just not one brand. so there ya have my 2 cents worth on the 3 pistols. Ruger and brownings are real winners, very high quality, reliable, durable, trouble free guns, sig should a took more time into refining the mosquito and throughly tested it before they sent em out, just my opinion, i know people has had problems with ruger and browning and other brands and sware they wont buy another, but its just what ever tickles you the most, enjoy it.
