Two Tone fun gun (5/5) | Mar 13, 2007 | Joe Dado | Latrobe PA US |
I recently purchased the two tone mosquito. Unlike some other buyers, my version had no problems feeding CCI mini-mags and Remington Goldens. Trigger has some creep, but I already have a High Standard Victor for target and was looking for a plinker. I found it with the mosquito and am glad I chose it over the Walther 220, which I found a bit on small side for my liking. | ||||

Sig Sauer Mosquito (4/5) | May 17, 2009 | Richard Cole | Chesapeake Vi US |
After my USMC son bougt his Mosquito at a big retailer, choosing it after first holding the S&W P22, I loved it. Love the gun. Shoots CCI minimags well, no misfeeds, didn't like the CCI Stingers, or just about anything else I had on hand, including Rem Thunderbolt and some cheap Federals. Won't outshoot the Ruger 22/45 or the Super Single Six my brother owns as far as accuracy, but even he loves the feel and the ease of cleaning. His Thai wife likes the grip of the Mosquito better than the 22/45 since her hands are small. My police officer son also loves the Mosquito is is considering buying one as well. |

the mosquito is a great little gun.fairly well made,though a little touchy about the ammo you run through it. i have had problems with the trigger and had to have it replaced under warranty. just reacently i had to send it back again for a cracked slide.in all fairness to the little gun,i put about 10,000 rounds through it.i shoot federal auto match and have no issues at all | ||||

Sig Mosquito (5/5) | Sep 5, 2009 | Jarred | Clearwater Fl US |
No trouble out of it as long as I shoot copper plated rounds. Lead nosed ones don't like to work quite as well. But I've shot Federal and Remington bulk ammo and have had 3 that didn't eject. I've had it for about a week now, and I have put 1450 rounds through it with the three failure to ejects'. Broke it in with 400 rounds of CCI Mini Mag's and then switched to the bulk without a problem. | ||||

Sig Mosquito (4/5) | Oct 16, 2009 | Barry Hartman | DeLand Fl US |
I use the Mini Mags and Remington golden bullets and it runs great. I love it and also have a Ruger and Browning .22 . the Mosquito is the size of my 229 Sig and a great warm up gun. |

Sig Mosquito (4/5) | Jun 27, 2010 | Roy Darrington | Sacramento CA US |
I took possession of my Mosquito last week and took it to the range today for the first time. I've read all the reviews and the owners card about using CCI Mini-Mags for at least the first 500, but those rounds are about as easy to find as hens teeth. So, I broke in the action by cycling it at least 1,000 times, manually, then checking it over for any bits of metal that might have broken loose. There were a few really small pieces. Performance at the range was good. This is the first 22 cal Semi auto I've shot in years. I had a brick of Remington 22 LR Golden Bullets to shoot. I had 2 misfires (reloading the round got it fired the second time), about 12 FE issues, and no FF issues at all. Accuracy was acceptable, hand held, at 10 yds. The stock sight printed all of my shots about 2 inches low at that range but replacing it was fairly simple and solved that problem. Overall, first impression, I'm very happy with my purchase. The DA trigger pull is not acceptable to me (not as smooth as I like it) but SA trigger pull was crisp if a little heavy for my tastes. |

Puzzling (3/5) | Mar 11, 2013 | John Cassidy | Novi MI US |
Have two Mosquitos, one for me and one for my daughter. Still in break-in period for both, trying all sorts of ammo. All high velocity or hyperV. So far, the Remington golden 40gr are the winners. Almost zero issues. For the heck of it, tried 2 clips of 40gr Thunderbolts yesterday. Expected problems, and not one misfire or ejection issue. CCI 36gr HP not perfect by any means. About one in ten don't eject or reload to the chamber properly. Got some CCI Velocitors coming next week. Maybe the 40gr bullet is key. Biggest problems? Surprising, but Winchester SuperX HyperV 40gr HP. Can't get three in a row to fire. Switching clips, alternating bullets, etc. in both guns to see what works best. These things are really a puzzle, but when they work they are really fun to shoot. | ||||

New Sig Mosquito (5/5) | Mar 17, 2014 | James West | Monroe GA US |
I have read on the net all of the supposed problems with the mosquito. I noticed the following comments: bought the pistol and went directly to the range without cleaning first ( and you wonder why it is a 'jamomatic'!) and the famous "I have never had one but..." so, why are you even commenting? I read the owners manual first, then disassembled and cleaned the pistol per the owners manual, use only high-quality, high-velocity ammo ( owners manual does not mention any particular brand ), clean pistol after each use and so far I haven't had a lick of trouble. Is it a match quality firearm? No, but it is fun. |
