| Im seriously thinking about getting a fastback carry , are there any reliablity issues with their external extractors? i remember the clusterfuck that kimber went thru. I have a bunch of other 1911' s , all have internals . just trying to do s9me research before i take the plunge! |

I've had no issues either. My C3 is boringly reliable.
You might also want to consider the S&W 1911SC. It too has a round butt and is competatively prices with the Sig. The only problems I've had with an external extractor was with a 3" Pro series S&W. But then 3" guns aren't exactly known for their reliability. |

Quoted:
just get a real 1911, you'll be better off. sig and kimber are the herpes of the 1911 world. If I made a comment like that in a tech forum I would have gotten nailed by a mod. Anyway, the Sig 1911 is fine. I have a Tac Ops with the Sig profile slide, and aside from problems due to crappy magazines I've had no problems. I do wish that I had gotten one with the traditional slide profile, but I don't regret getting the Tac Ops. |
