Smile At last w-ends gun show I traded a gun worth $400 to the 1911-22. I was sick of my gun and wanted something different and this Sig appears new. I can't find much info and what I do find makes gun sound kinda poor. To me feel and appearance is excellent but I am a total novice at 1911s and semi-autos in general. Opinions and advice requested. Thanks.

Here’s a video on one.



I wouldn’t sweat it. It will get dirty as hell but that is the nature of .22LR.

That Sig isn’t worth $400 in my opinion. It’s the exact same gun as the GSG 1911 that sold for as low as $239. These are made of Zinc alloy and the slide tends to crack in half after heavy usage.

True, the slide is made of Zamak, and it could break. SIG would likely honor the warranty, but it’s the main reason I wouldn’t own a GSG / SIG 1911-22. Not worth the risk.

I’ve heard of round counts in the tens of thousands and also in the low hundreds when it comes to slide failures.
