Ok... This may be the WRONG place to post this.. But I'm thinking about a 45 cal 1911.
One of the local gun shops has a used sig 1911 stainless used for about $50 more than I can get a brand new Springfield range officer.... Ok..The Springfield has a SS slide but is black coated... The SS is more. (?)
I like my SS but... Not sure which way to go.
I have no idea how to check "wear" on guns so I'm really flying blind here...
However..I know the sig is all SS whereas...On the Springfield the slide is SS but I don't think the frame is SS.
I'm an engineer by education so I know SS has MUCH better wear characteristics than cs or polymer...
I'm at a cross roads . Love my SIG's... But am not sure which way to go.
I'd have to " buy" a warrantee with the sig which would add another $90 or so.
Oh...What to do!!!
Opinions?
Thank you
Ps...I know this is sig lover Central so all responses will be run though my fox news filter ( lol)
