What in the name of the Flying Spaghetti Monster is THAT ugly thing?

Oops!!  Yesterday, I could see my pictures. Today neither of them show up.

Anyway, that ugly thing is a SIG P232, .380 cal.  Cute little thing isn't it? Fits real easily in a front pocket.

Three inch groups at 25 feet is fairly good.
Did the original poster maybe mean 25 yards instead of 25 feet? 3" at 25 yards would indeed be good (hell it'd be great). 25' is just barely over 8 yards and 3" at that range is relatively easy with any half way decent handgun from a standing position and slow firing. Gets somewhat harder (for me at least) if one is firing at a rate greater than 1 shot/second.

Nope, I did mean 25 feet. My 9mm guns are Ruger KP89 and Taurus PT92AFS, both with factory metal sights and no "adjustments" other than rubber grips.

Yer telling me SIG makes a .380 with two scopes, a baseplate made out of milled aluminium and has a barrel at least two feet long?   I gather it's not one's first choice for concealed carry
