I modified the trigger on my Sigma .40 the other day and hadn't had a chance to test it out, so here's me firing a full magazine (14 rounds) through my Smith & Wesson Sigma .40 with the softened trigger job I did. The target is roughly 16 feet away (the big line next to it on the wall marks 15 feet), and I'm just using some cheap range ammo, 165 grain "International" full metal jackets.

Nce shootin', Tex ;)

My best friend has a .40 S&W Sigma and likes it. My daughter had looked at one, but decided on the S&W Military & Police instead.

BTW: I recently took delivery on a SIG Sauer Mk25, a civilian version of the USN SEALs specially coated (in and out) and marked SIG P226. Sweet..

Nice, just checked it out on their website, looks like a very nice pistol. How much did it run you?

9mm AND $1200, I'll pass, maybe if it were a .40 or .45 it would be a bit more palatable

A bit over $850 (dealer in).

Since it's a P226 it can likely use a later model SIG P226 Caliber X-Change kit, but that loses the cool gold anchor and ID tags. P226's can go .22 LR -> 9MM -> .357 SIG -> .40.

The P250's can go .380 (subcompact only) -> 9MM -> .40 -> .357 SIG -> .45 ACP in any of 3 sizes; subcompact, compact or full size.

    • >defenders of AI-generated artworks often claim that AI is just a tool It is not. It is the inhuman artist replacement. The human writing the prompt is the employer/manager requesting the work product of the artist -- a supervisory/descriptive job that doesn't carry with it any rights to the copyright of that work product at all. And since AI is not human itself, it can't gain copyright for anything it is asked to regurgitate or hallucinate, so it can't transfer that copyright to the employer/manager/human who asked for the output. This was all legally reaffirmed last year. So, no, while there are AI tools, AI slopware generation is NOT a "tool" in the legal definition of that word.

    • Google is opening the world's first AI museum in Los Angeles by Ivan Jenic Image via: Google Ever since AI image generators went mainstream, the debate over whether AI-generated art is real art hasn't let up. Those who don’t consider AI to be art say that if a machine does the creating and anyone can prompt it, there’s no skill involved, and therefore no art is produced. The counter-argument is equally persistent, as defenders of AI-generated artworks often claim that AI is just a tool, and that every major technological breakthrough, like the camera or the computer, was met with the same skepticism before eventually being accepted as a legitimate creative medium. Google’s position in this debate is clear. Which is no surprise, as the company is investing billions in AI infrastructure. And now, in efforts to encourage people to use its AI even more, Google is opening Dataland on June 20, which it's calling the world's first AI arts museum. Located inside The Grand LA, a Frank Gehry-designed building in Los Angeles, the museum spans 25,000 square feet. The museum is built around a collaboration with media artist Refik Anadol, who has worked with Google since 2016. The inaugural exhibition is called Machine Dreams: Rainforest, and is powered by an AI model trained on “an extensive dataset of the natural world.” It generates 1.2 billion pixels of visuals in real time and reacts to visitors dynamically. The space also generates soundscapes, real-time emotion sensing, and algorithmically produced scents. Image via: Refik Anadol Studio / Google Google says that the museum is powered by its Gemini models, which run on Google Cloud. So, everything is generated inside one of Google’s AI data centers and is streamed to the museum. Alongside the museum opening, Google Arts & Culture is funding an AI Artist Residency, giving four artists $25,000 grants each, along with mentorship from Refik Anadol Studio and access to Google's machine learning tools. Their work will be shown at Dataland and on the Google Arts & Culture website later this year. Google’s AI museum will undoubtedly initiate a fired-up debate on social media, and we can’t wait to see the first reactions. Via: Smithsonian Magazine
    • Calling GTA 6 overhyped crap doesn’t make you edgy, it just makes you sound like someone who hasn’t enjoyed anything since the PS2 era.
    • I’m not arguing whether Rockstar likes money. Obviously, they do, they’re a business. I’m saying this isn’t new. They’ve always launched console first. This is just how Rockstar operates.
