    Interesting that it contrasted Glock with the 1911. Like many human writers have done.

    Colt does indeed use Novak cuts front and rear.

    You can also get Heinie sights as well as Dawson front sights that will fit.

    There is a 1983 Browning B92 357 available on GunBroker with several bids. From what I've read, these are very good guns without the tang safety or rebounding hammer.

    Holster makers have tended to base their railed 1911 holsters on Springfield Armory's rail dimensions almost as a standard. Colt's original Rail Gun would fit into holsters designed...

    Hilton Yam took possession of another Sig 1911-XFULL, this one in FDE.

    Funny that his 1911 video is imaged backwards.

    He mostly enjoyed shooting the gun and it passed his extractor function check.

    Here are some of the complaints he had:

    Thumb safety way too stiff, which he cleaned up.

    I think these might be a decent starting point for people who want to mount an optic.

    If that is not a concern, I would step up to a TRP instead of putting money into the Sig. Springfield's parts...

    Didn't he make some points about the optic mount as well?
