Sig 1911 Max Michel

I got the opportunity to meet Max a couple years ago and he's a very pleasant individual to talk to.
Sig should make a 1911 in their Mastershop, home of the x5 and x6 pistols.

 

Let's see those Duck grips!

 

Well it does already have a Quack trigger:rofl:

Seriously,I read the spec sheet on the pistol and 1713.00 MSRP FOR A SIG !!!!!!
Maybe one of the X series pistols for that range,but seriously,1.7 k for a SIG? :der:

Considering the QC problems that SIG has been having over the past couple of years,I'd get a Les Baer UTC or TRS LONGGGGG before I'd even consider a SIG for over a grand.

Does it come with it's own UDT team?

I guess PT BARNUM was right after all !

Well, it does have a semi flat trigger on it, so I kind of like it.

But for that price, I'll pass.

 

I bought the max 1911. The slide was not smooth and the trigger was awful. I had to rack the slide for a couple of weeks to get the slide smooth. With help I found the firing pin and firing pin lock was the problem. You could push down on the firing pin lock, there was resistance at first, then it would break free. I ordered a Dawson precision firing pin and the problem went away. Long story short I took SIG's armorer class so I could buy Sig parts. They wouldn't sell me the two parts. The most I've ever spent on a pistol. Not happy..

 

4 1/2 year old thread?
Took you this long to join and pitch your bitch?
Anyhow, welcome Oldmanmt9... hope your next 1911 purchase works out better for you?

 

Not much coming out of Sig Germany. The German plant is a ghost town. Plus, the German government stopped Sig's ability to export.

The American custom shop doesn't build guns so that's out

 

Does it have an external extractor?

Thats the only thing holding me back fr getting a sig 1911. It does not look like a 1911 to me hehe but i like the "squarish" slide though

Watch the classifieds for my Scorpion. I'm getting ready to move it. It will be a great price.

 

I was fortunate to shoot with Max on a couple occasions. Nice guy, and funny too.

 

You know, that used to matter to me for quite a while. Maybe it doesn't bother me because I alread have some that are as JMB intended.

The thoughts of a Pistol Dynamics 1911 by Paul Liebenberg are racing through my head nowadays. Any discussion of external extractors send my brain in his direction. Good thing I don't have any money....
