Review of a 2010 SIG Sauer 1911 Carry and what makes them such a great value in the current production-level 1911 market. All SIG Sauer 1911s feature the same build quality and components, and only small features and aesthetics vary between models. This review takes a look at a Sig Sauer 1911 Carry Stainless model.

  • Sorry but the features you say don't exist on certain other guns, do exist.

  • @chrisdl62 Sorry, but for me or any one of my viewers to take your comments seriously, we're going to need very specific examples cited and the pistol you reference must be production grade pistols at the same price point and not customs or semi-customs. Ball's in your court.

  • Hey there, how does the new RUGER SR1911 compare??? Thnx...:G:....

  • @kglang95 The Ruger,m in my opinion, isn't really in the same class. It uses a cast frame and is full of MIM parts. I've been followign the range reports on these guns, and some folks get guns that run 100% and others have some problems that require sending the pistol back to the factory. I think Ruger needs more time to iron out the details.

  • what music did you use in your video plz :)

  • I own a sig P228 and always worked flawlesly. your video made me rush to my nearest gun shop and order a 1911 ca in ss, so bad the waiting list is about 2 months. Well I guess that's the way things are at the "Isla del Encanto".

  • S W E E T !

  • @boricuaDV Thanks for the info.

  • @khyoon14 According to an Assembler at SIG (who is also 1911forum Moderator), the current SIGs have as many as 5 MIM parts; slide stop, disconnector, grip safety, thumb safety, and firing pin stop. SIG is not very consistent in this regard, so the only way to tell for sure is to detail strip the entire pistol and look for the "potholes" & mold lines leftover from the MIM process.

  • @boricuaDV Thanks, that clears it up. I'll keep my eye out on my carry nitron once it comes in to see if it does the same. Btw do all sig 1911's have 2 mim parts? The disconnector and slide stop?

  • @khyoon14 My firing schedule dictates that the slightly heavier spring is the better choice. When I shoot my 1911s, I shoot at least 200 rounds back-to-back in a single range session, and sometimes I am shooting more. Even at a moderate shooting pace, you can feel the guns slowing down as you reach the 200 round mark. The extra 2 lbs. aids the slide in returning to battery when the gun gets hot and dirty.
