Brought this beauty home today. A Sig Sauer 1911 RCS. It's out of Sig's custom shop. They combined an Officer-sized grip frame with a Commander-sized 4.25" barrel/slide length. I haven't had a chance to get to the range yet. Probably Friday. But here are some pics!! After I run a few hundred rounds through her and am satisfied with her reliability, this will become my new carry weapon! Sorry about the picture quality. I'm not photographer.

very nice!

sweet looking pistol. How many loonies did you spent?

I spent 900 of 'em. A little steep I reckon, but it was exactly what I was looking for and in stock. In stock counts for a lot these days. heh.

Sweet shootin' iron ya got there.
Looking forward the report.

Very Nice..

Very sharp pistola I am jealous.

I am sure it was unloaded for your pics, however I did notice it was cocked and UNLOCKED in the second picture. Not picking on ya, it's just one of those things that I practice and preach all the time. Be safe and enjoy that beauty.

You're right. I had just stripped, cleaned the shipping oil off, and re-assembled her. It's been about 5 years since I regularly handled a 1911. Everything I've been shooting for the last 5 years hasn't had a safety. That's why I have barely put her down since I brought her home. Getting use to the feel again.
You're also right in that it was unloaded. In fact, I don't even HAVE any ammo for her yet.

I keep all my 1911 locked.. more to make sure the gun is secure then the ammo issue.. its just a good habbit for me... we all do things differnt. Just like you cannot clean it when the slide is locked.. when not in use.. I lock the slide.. but again... just me.

Yep. I'm working on getting that habit back. Won't take long.

WooHoo, 1911!

I almost bought one of these instead of my Kimber. Keep us updated on how she performs.

Congratulations.
