At six months waiting, I couldn't wait any longer

Reliable · 01-28-2012, 10:36 AM

I've had a Sig Traditional Stainless Match Elite in 9mm on order for six months now and the word is they won't be released for a while yet. My desire was to own and shoot a 9mm 1911. While at the LGS this morning checking on the status of the Sig, my gaze was redirected by the manager to a Springfield Armory Loaded 1911 in 9mm. Hummmmm! These were on my original list of options for a 9mm 1911. I checked it out, it was tight, felt good, so needless to say my order has changed.

Here it is!

I'm looking forward to spending some time at the range to check it out.

Beautiful! Six months!

SIG lost my business today too-non-responsive about a basic 9mm pistol over a 6 week period.

If only the Germans knew what NH wasn't doing with their company!

I put a S&W E Series on layaway.

Please post a detailed range report if you dont mind. A 9mm 1911 is my next buy so im really curious about these.

Very nice buy and im extremely jealous!

Nice pistol Reliable. But I bet you end up buying a SIG 1911 to go with it sometime in the future !
