Follow Up.
Sorry, I should have mentioned this before but I do own a very reliable (so far after 800 rounds) Colt M1991A1 that is pretty much stock except for a trigger job, new trigger, and new ejector. And that is why I didn't want a discussion between the 1911 design or any other. I AM a fan of John Browning's classic design.
Anyways, I went into the gunshop to handle both but unless you shoot a few hundred rounds through both you can't really tell can you? I really like the way the SA "Loaded" was put together. It really impressed me with all the "extras" you got for the price. But I just couldn't get rid of the nagging feeling I would have to do "a few things" to make it shoot perfect. Probably unwarranted but there it is. The CZ is a class act in itself. The finish was nicer than I thought, I like the DA trigger after it was decocked (length of pull is reduced), it looks like a very robust design, and it is flat out one of the nicest looking pistols around. A negative was the slide which is hard to grasp and I wished the ejection port was bigger. And oh yeah, its pretty heavy and large for a 10 shot 9mm.
Anyways, it was again a toss up but low and behold I saw a slightly used Sig Sauer P220ST
with only a few rounds through it and Trijicon night sights. I got a P226 9mm so I do trust the Sig name. He let me take it apart and the internals are the nicest I've ever seen in a production pistol under $1000. Bar none. I can always get a SA 1911 or CZ next time but P220ST's don't come down the road too often ya know.
But I asked him to hold it for me for one day so I can sleep on it. I already put some money down so all he needs is a phone call and he'll DROS is for me. But I think the answers gonna be YES.
Since I couldn't get a straight answer from all of you look at what you all made me do!!!
