I would not buy a Mosquito! Read some of the preceding posts relative to being ammo sensitive.

I opine that it is not a good product, and unworthy of the SIG name. I think they may have stopped importation.

I had a SIG customer service rep. tell me that CCI Mini-Mag was the only recommended ammo for reliability. CCI Mini-Mag is fine ammo with a good recoil signature for working troublesome autoloaders; but it is expensive (typically about 3X) compared to the 500+ round bulk-pak plinking competition. The Mosquito is marketed as a utility or plinking pistol, not a Bullseye target pistol like the Trailslide.
