Just buy the Sig and keep track of the cost to upgrade the parts you want and how you do with the Sig. Then maybe the next person who needs the advise you will be able to give the go-nogo on the sig.
Have a new springfield 1911A1 in 9mm, was going to change the 28# spring to a 19#. Was I surprized when I dropped the housing and the spring is not pin into the housing,they give you a pin to stick in the housing after you pull the hammer back to keep the spring compressed. My problem is the 19# spring is two long to operate the hammer,do they make a shorter 19# spring for 9mm? I only have 45's and never ran into this before. Thanks in advance for the help.
If you said where you live I'm sure someone is close enough to help you out in 10 min or send you to a smith near you that could have fixed it for less than the cost of sending the gun to KImber.
You just need more brass. I clean about 1000 brass at a time, dump into a seperator and store in those empty plastic coffee cans.9,38,357,45 ,44spl,44mag. Have people that buy their coffee in the tubbs save then for you.
Looks like the price of snap caps just got cheaper vs the price of new firing pins. If you did not catch it until you were on the line in a match that would have been a ruined trip.
Can't believe you can't take a screw out of the grip and take to place that sell screws and match it up. You don't have to tell them it's for a gun. it's just a basic screw.
When the wife use to come down to talk while I was reloading I'd give her a bucket of brass and say do some sorting while we talk. She stoped coming down.
I had one smith say if you want certain parts and brands fitted to you gun and you know their hard to get you should order all the parts and supply them with your gun to be fitted. He will not get them any faster than you and he will get the job done sooner with your parts.
