Any comparison is subjective to say the least so right off I will state IMO and repeat IMO
This is not about rail or no rail or grips or blah blah
It is about how they shoot and frankly the both shoot super just superb
However, there are some differences.
I have 2 M11A-1s. One is I believe a 2012 build (But it has a 2016 slide and barrel bought from a member here)
The new M11A-1 (less than 200 rounds now) is an Oct 2016 build and the P229 Legion is a Aug 2016 build
What is interesting in this shoot off is the used M11A-1 having been shot over 5 years now (round count, no idea) has a much nicer trigger than not only the new M11A-1 but the Legion.
All 3 have the Sig SRT and the Legion has the Grayguns trigger, very nice and the 2 M11A-1 have the SReachT trigger which I modified to remove the pinching it gave me.

The well broken in M11A-1 frame/trigger was the nicest to shoot.
With a new barrel and slide it shoots as well as the other two but the trigger is not only much better than the brand new M11A-1 but is actually better than the Graygun Legion trigger.
The Legion trigger is much nicer than the 2016 M11A-1 trigger
I prefer the cheaper M11 grip feel and while the M11 can not add a light it is a better conceal piece
The Legion is stellar just sweet as can be but in truth the M11A-1 has a more durable finish and cost less but in order to get the trigger improved to compare with that nice Graygun trigger you would spend a lot of money on ammo (or just send it to Sig for a trigger job)
I have to say the older M11A-1 is my wanna take along to the range Sig but who says we can't have them all?
The older 2012 M11A-1 is the one on top
