Found a CCO. Yay!

[AZAndy]

Picked up this little dude today:

Sig Sauer 1911 C3 Talo Edition (.45ACP), 4.25" barrel, tritium sights, Nitron slide. Weighs 29oz. That white stuff is the factory grease; I haven't cleaned it yet. I'm not wild about the Army Green, but I guess I can live with it. I'll shoot it Monday and report back on how it does. Trigger breaks at 4 oz. Been wanting a CCO for some time but never seem to see one in a shop's case. Kinda subdued, ain't it?

Nice, Very nice

Looks good. I like the feel of the grips.

I like the CCO size, but a 4 ounce trigger? Anyway, congrats on the purchase.

I like it! Nice find! Not crazy about the Army green frame either but I could live with it because I also have been wanting to get a CCO for some time.

Yes, it's on the verge of being too light. I see some spring-bending in my future.

I went to Sig's website to check the specs and it looks like the entire C3 line has been removed-- there used to be this one, a two-tone, and a Nitron. This does not bode well. I hope they're just updating the site for the 2017 and haven't gotten everything back in yet. There's a nice Dan Wesson bobtail CCO out in the world, also with aluminum alloy frame, but it's about $350 more expensive.

Sweet looking little gat there AZAndy. Commander size barrel & slide w Officer's size(?) grip.
congrats
I hope she runs as good as she looks. Being a Sig, I reckon it will.

Those are great little guns. I had the regular C3 for several years and loved it. Never had a single problem and it ran great. Congrats on a nice pistol!

I'm assuming you meant a 4 POUND trigger as a 4 OUNCE trigger is absurd.

Indeed I did, and you're right. It seems I have no head for weighty matters.

Love this one

Love this one

Nice! Did you add the MSH/Magwell, or did it come that way?

Came factory with the well. I think this gun is under rated for what it is.

AZAndy, nothing wrong with that Army Green, great looking pistol!
