      Its not disposable to me. This has been a want/need for the past 2 years.

      I decided it was finally time.

        You did good, Ryan. I definitely gave that very same piece some thought before I decided on the Sig. Good "bang" for the buck, pun intended. Glad you've joined the ranks of responsible gun owners - just don't prove me wrong on that.

        I think you win in that category, Lars. I will however admit that my employer made good on my newly acquired "top technical contributor" status in the form of a nice bonus this year.

        Now lets go shooting!

          I guess I can't say "Can I shoot it?" and no more Clint Eastwood the trigger around my hand can I?

            I'm teasing, of course, as usual. I've looked wistfully at a few pieces over the years, then sat still till the feeling went away. My hangar is directly across from the Yolo County Sportsmen's Association (AKA the local range). Literally. Have I ever set foot in there? Nope. If I have time to go shooting, I have time to work on the contraption. Not for too much longer.

            Ryan, nice piece!

                        I didn't know RIA had the full bull barrel. Looks just like my SA Tactical. Post up or PM me with what you paid for it. I may get this one for my everyday gun.

                          I have never shot the Sig Equinox so I may be a little off here. But the Sig sear resets on the ones I've been issued as well own, are not the best when it comes to the trigger pull. Upon the sear reset, there seems to be a lot of trigger play before there is a positive pressure before you're ready to shoot again. For accuracy, I feel this is a downfall with the Sig. Don't get me wrong, I own several Sigs and like their accuracy and feel in my hands. I just feel the downfall is the trigger assembly.

                          Congrats on your new 1911. They are still my favorite sidearm. I truly enjoy carrying them on duty and additionally like the look on peoples faces when they see the "Locked and Cocked" way we carry them!
