Sig M11-A1

I know the M11-A1 has been out for a while, but I finally decided to get one. I guess the threaded barrel on this one put me over the top. It's reverse threaded. Fortunately, I have an adapter for my TiRant 9 suppressor. It came with three 15rd magazines and night sights. The fit and finish look great.

Nice.

I thought it was kinda gimmicky but bought one anyway.
Probably the pistol I shoot the most now.

What a great pistol!

I still have my P228 9mm w/ threaded barrel. Only reason I didn't grab a M11.

You won’t be disappointed.

The threaded barrel seems to be a new addition.
That's a cool feature for those that want to run a can on it and not have to buy a threaded one for $300.
No tramp stamp anymore either.

The first ones had a regular barrel but it was chrome lined.
Then they just used the same barrel as everything else.
First ones had 228 grip panels, then they put 229 ones on.

A few versions have been around now.
Blue and green anodized frames and a Cerakote FDE.

I wound up with a FDE one when I was checking to see if they had anymore PD 228 trade ins, already picked up a 220 and 225.
No CL barrel but did have 228 grips.

The grips from my 229 Select looked better on it.

Great gun and you can do any upgrades if you want, or leave as is and shoot the piss out of it. Well I guess either way, shoot the piss out of it.

I remember seeing a picture of guy in a gun magazine shooting an Sig 228 when the first came out. The gun had extensive finish wear and it looked about as sexy as any gun I had ever seen. This was around 1990 and probably in American Handgunner or something. I went out and bought one. The I later traded it for a 229 in .40 with a .357 barrel and that was going to be the last handgun I ever bought. I may have been slightly off in that prediction.
