Very nice!
not as many bells and whistles....WC CQB.....
I haven't had too many 1911s, but the Colt Government I had I gave to my son. I bought a Kimber Pro CDP II that I tried hard to love, but found that whenever I fired it, the beaver tail dug into my thumb knuckle. After a few mags, my thumb was done.
I didn't want to give up on the 1911, so I was determined to someday find one that fit my hand better. Saturday was that "someday."
I wasn't looking to buy, but I happened to spy the most beautiful 1911 I'd ever seen in the store the other day. To make it irresistible, Sig is running a promotion right now where, if you buy one of their 1911s, you can buy one of their .22LR 1911s for only $99! I couldn't say no.
Meet my new mistress, "Shannon" (I named her after Shannon Bream, because when I first saw this pistol, I let out the same audible sigh that I do whenever Shannon Bream comes on TV.)
... and her baby brother:
I staged it with some vintage .45 ACP cartridges for fun. He's a decent, fun plinker, but that's about it.
Nice Colt! I only post every 5th one I buy. JetGirl and Churchmouse get a bit snippy when someone has more 1911's than they do.

Looks like a STELLAR day! 1911s shooting 45 ACP, doesn't get much better than that! I think I see a 22 as well.
That bi-tone Colt intrigues me! It looks like it's having way to much fun down there!!Nothing new and shiny, but churchmouse and I had a fun 1911 day...
