What is it about the pistil forums that people cant help but recommend any thing but what the OP is asking about. I am not asking about a 220 or a Kimber or a Springer, I am asking if any one has any experience with a the Sig Ultra. I don't care if you have a 220 or a what ever and its the greatest thing on earth, I am not asking about that.
Sig has more variants on the 1911 than most other companies, I'd even go out on a limb and say more than anyone. It's going to be tough to find a reasonable sample of people that own one of their more obscure models.
Agreed on the non-1911 posts though..
I bought a Sig Tacops Commander and called Sig about a non-threaded barrel and even the catalog number off the box was not in their system, the guy on the phone told me my pistol didn't exist
Sig has been successful with their 1911's and they are pumping out variants, good for them.
All that said, I've owned at least 6 of their 1911's and all have been flawless. I've also owned multiples from just about every other manufacturer in the $500-$1100 price point, so I'm not just a Sig fanboy.
When I started selling off all of my mid-range 1911's because I got bit by the high-end bug, the only one I kept was my Tacops Commander. It doesn't compare to a $1500+ 1911, but it's ultra-reliable and overall just a bad a$$ 1911.
Line for line Sig compares well to everything in it's price range, and better than some. Could there be the occasional dud out there? Sure, but I've never seen one so I can recommend them wholeheartedly.
If you decide you want a comparison to other brands I'm happy to weigh in because everyone has opinions.
