Interesting. I used the 1911 for a 20 years in the military, but had no real problems with my SIGs. Still thumb the slide release, and now thumb the decocker too!Originally Posted by maclean3

Yeah, I'm sure them Sig's are great for the people that like all them little levers,switches,and control buttons. What's that one just above that one that is to the immediate right of the little........never mind. Do the weapons come with schematic drawings?? BTW have you Sig guys seen the P239 SAS and the P229 SAS ?? Seems that they would make a good CC weapon. They're even "cleaner" than my Kimber. ----------

I was told that when I got my first Sig (a P220) that it wouldnt be my last.
I just laughed and and rolled my eyes and said " Yeah right,whatever..."and never expected to buy another.
That was 3 Sigs ago...![]()
Sigs! Unph-Unph!
I want one and I shall have one...someday![]()

Sig's are nice , but not for this lefty.
Right on when they make a lefty model ill buy oneOriginally Posted by rocky
And that's why I OWN a SIG.Originally Posted by Bud White
Because........ my 1911 is DEFINITELY not lefty friendly
....... I have revolvers but prefer an Auto.
........ After my P226 .40sw is loaded and decocked ,
ALL I have to do for the first 13 shots is aim and press/pull

Lets see, Take down lever, decocker, slide release, Mag release on the SIG. The 1911 has safety, mag release, slide release...... Yup! That extra one will get you every time!!Originally Posted by RSSZ
Oh yes, both those are beautiful. I'm really thinking about seeing if I can get the 229 version. Of course living in Maryland it will be at premium price!BTW have you Sig guys seen the P239 SAS and the P229 SAS ?? Seems that they would make a good CC weapon.
