- i got a recommendation that i should get the ASTRA A-100 as the backup to my
- SIG P226. i want this backup to keep in the CAR and/or for general trip
- purposes. i want to keep the SIG at home as a home defense gun, and not to be
- toted around too much.
-
- anyone have prior experience with the ASTRA? it's supposed to be a clone of
- the SIG, but what about quality? i don't necessarily need a gun with the same
- feel as the SIG. i've shot several types of autoloaders and is fairly
- comfortable with all. i would prefer some type of decocking type gun though
- so that i can keep a round in the chamber safely without the hammer being
- pulled back (like with the thumb safety on for 1911s).
-
- thanks for any input.
