Will Sig make the GSR 1911 without that vulgar rail on the frame?

It is a fine looking gun, but that frame rail really looks gross to me.
I think it would be more suitable for carry for more people if they left that off.

They will if they want to sell one to me, and I'm a big SIG fan.:)
I just won't buy a 1911 that won't fit into the expensive 1911 holsters I already own and like.
Unless they a produce a Commander size gun with no rail I may well pass on this one.

I hope so. Like many others, I would buy a GSR if it had the traditional 1911A1 profile (no accessory rail).

People want gimmicks ,accessory rail, beavertail etc .That's not for me. Certainly a carry gun or a HD gun should not have any modification that is not necessary.

I'm glad I'm not the only one that feels that way about the Sig-assembled Caspian.

I'll buy one as soon as they come out with the rail-less model.

The GSR is vulgar enough with or without the rail... :neener:

Personally I think the rail is an eyesore. I decided that this year I would buy a 1911. As big SIG fan, I guess I'll look elsewhere until they get rid of that hideous rail.

Even without a rail will it fit a 1911 holster? The slide is not a traditional 1911 slide. I am not sure it would fit a standard 1911 holster even without the rail. I will have to agree though that BUTT UGLY comes to mind when I look at the pics of them.

I always thought that rail could catch on something, maybe mess up your draw...

Personally the rail doesn't make a difference to me. I won't be purchasing a GSR in .45, but if the 9mm version is trouble free I'll be on that Sig-assembled Caspian like white on rice.

Last month I met the regional SIG rep while at my 'adult daycare center' and quizzed him about this very subject. He said there will be 3 additional variations on the GSR this year, along with numerous other new/improved products shortly.
Absolutely nothing in 10mm, ever, though. His words.

I'm somewhat attracted to the GSR as a house gun -- put a light on the rail. I doubt it would fit in most of my 1911 holsters...

Will it fit in the rail doodad holsters designed for the Kimber TLEs and whatnot?

I'll buy one when Sig decides to make the GSNR ( Granite State No Rail ):p
