    SIG 1911-X Optics Ready

    So far these appear to only be available in 5" black and FDE. A Commander size is shown but isn't available yet.

    It will be interesting to see if any of these new features bleed over in the existing SIG 1911s like the STX.

    I also wonder if a 9mm version is planned.

    I want to get the full-size FDE model to go with my 1911 Emperor Scorpion.

    I like the black one with flat trigger...but I would be interested in a Commander size unless they invoke Dan Wesson pricing....

    A sig built 1911 would be hard pass from me. Cohen is the one who destroyed Kimber. It will probably be the same level of quality.

    While at the range today, I walked by the gun case and noticed they had one of these on display. Also in the case was three iterations of Springfield TRP (including two of the newest gen) and a Dan Wesson Specialist. I handled all three of them side by side.

    The Sig 1911 X seemed noticeably lighter and more svelte than the other two, which seemed like giant hunks of steel in comparison. Ergos and everything on the Sig were good, but I really did not care for the series 80 style trigger. There's apparently not a whole lot you can do about it, either. The break itself was fine, but the take up was very un-1911 like compared to the other two.

    The TRP felt nice all around, but that checkering on the front and rear of the grip was some of the most aggressive I've ever felt. I'm not sure how I'd like that over an extended range session.
