Well, it's been years since I posted that range report. I had that .40cal Cougar for quite a while. Eventually got the 9mm Cougar I was looking for, then got in a serious cash crunch and sold them both. I stop into my local gunshop every week hoping to find another 9mm Cougar in the used rack but no luck so far. Everyone who has one seems to hang onto them. I recently picked up a new Ruger SR9c which seems to be a decent gun but sometimes wonder if I should have spent the cash on a new Cougar instead.
I can report that the COugars I owned were the most accurate guns I've ever fired, second only to my Sig p226.
If you can find one... BUY IT !!
