Nice one...I have a SIG 1911, built in the SIG custom shop for the USAR Service Pistol Team. It is an awesome pistola. Not a bullseye pistol, but fun to shoot. It groups into one hole at 25 yards with lot# 007 match ball...good enough, I guess. Bob

It is a nice gun. The grip panels have 25 stars each. Total of fifty. Very cool. Looks great in the box.
I will not shoot it since it is destined to be a gift. The recipient may not either, but that is his choice.
Sig makes a good 1911.

This may be a tangent from the original post, but does anyone have a used ransom rest that you'd like to sell?
The blindness from subjectivity is indistinguishable from the darkness of ignorance.

Most people who buy them are serious shooters/collectors. They tend to keep them. If you have a good friend that you can trust, maybe run it by him/her to go in together on one.

Glock - Sort of like a 1911, but for girls.
Imagine a corporate oligarchy so effective, so advanced and fine tuned that its citizens still call it a democracy.

You can like one without hating the other.

You can like one without hating the other. This is very true. Unfortunately, though, merely stating a preference, and the reasons why, for one over the other in a defensive carry role, is enough to get you labeled as a hater of the other. In my case, far from it. I carried a full sized, all steel, 1911 IWB for years, off and on, from the 1980s through well into the 21st Century. I have several now, and one of them is in my home defense rotation, although not generally any longer carried. I'm a fan of the 1911, but am often thought of as a hater merely because I believe more modern designs are superior for the role of CCW ... in my case the Glock 17 and 43. So it's almost impossible to be a 1911 fan (who believes another choice is superior for CCW) without being labeled by 1911 fan boys as a 1911 hater.

I have good friends that like Glocks.
I even let them come over to shoot the damn things.
See, I am not a hater.

Sig makes a good 1911. That thing is really cool. And if I were to buy a 1911 right now it'd be a Sig. Dave

1911 guys and Glock guys can be a little touchy, more so than any others I can think of...
