| If you were making a choice between the Springfield operator 1911 without a discount and the Sigarms GSR 1911 with a $100 coupon, which one would you get? |

Not enough info to vote. If you are talking about a cheapo Milspec 1911 form Springfield then go with the Sig all day long. Many have said that lack of an external ejector was the only thing that makes the original Browning design flawed. If you are talking about one of the Operator seires guns, then it makes the voting much closer. The TRP Operator with the fully supported slide and light rail is a nice peice. If you ever needed to strike someone with it in a punching manner the fully supported slide will work far better. Both guns are nice and tight, with a slight edge given to the Sig. Good luck!

In other news today, I agreed w/ Va_Dinger again....... Sig: cast frame, external extractor (I was a huge fan of the move to external extractors until I realized that there was no chance of ever standardizing on one specific design within the industry), funky extra safety contraption in the slide....... I recently bought a pair of SA 1911's, and they shoot like they've got eyes....... (though I wish someone would make a 1911 with all-forged tool-steel parts at a good price.....) |
