My new STX

[DRYHEAT]

I just received a new, unfired SIG STX 1911 in a trade for a revolver. I wasn't looking for another 1911 as I have Colts now and have had models from Kimber, Remington Rand (WWII) , Detonics (Scoremaster), AMT Harballer longslide, and some I have forgotten. Now I have a SIG.

I am impressed with the SIG Sauer Custom Shop's work on this pistol and really want to get it out to the range. That may have to wait until next Wednesday when the monsoon weather subsides out here in the Sonoran desert. At least I can shoot some photos…
The carry configuration:

And by re-installing the original Hogue burl grips: AZ BBQ configuration:*

*I will now need to get a fancy, tooled BBQ holster for the beast!

If yours shoots as well as mine, you will be as impressed with the performance as with the looks. Mine has grip panels that look like birdseye maple and it is a real looker.

Admittedly, I am a big fan of the Sig brand and have a C3, and the Stainless Super Target, too.

I'll look forward to seeing the leather you choose to show off this baby!

Wow, and I thought my pistol was nice......yours is sweeeet!!

I just got this two days ago.....my first 1911 (not counting the Para Warthog 13/45 I had many years ago that I only shot two mags through - ended up hating the short and fat grip really quick and sold it shortly after that).

I put a box through it yesterday, it shoots beautifully!!!! Let us know how you like yours....I'm loving mine.

Sig 1911s are great. The stx looks fantastic.

A heavier recoil spring in that Warthog 13 makes a significant difference in felt recoil. My Para 13 and Para Long Slide will shoot the same brisk loads with little discomfort. I think I have had just dumb great luck with my Paras -- I think I got all the good ones that were built !

Beautiful Sigs!
