Yea and some clown complained about it saying that if you bought a Sig a while back you could get another free 1911 22!!!

That is true IF you could find a participating Sig Dealer that would participate. And another thing the Sigs that you had to buy to get the free 1911 were all in the $900.00 to $1300.00 price range.

Oh well, what RIA is offering is better than nothing at all!!!:)

Thanks Clyde!!

I plan to pick one up in August, and this will sure help.

Decisions, decisions, decisions.

Florida Gun Exchange offers the SIG rebate. They have GREAT prices. I'm gonna stop there on my way to SC to see if they have any RI's I like.
They are in Port Orange and Ormand Beach, Fl. ALOT of inventory, one store is brand new, big. They don't keep a website with their current guns listed cause they sell so much it would be too labor expensive to constantly update the website! And the customer service is chock full o' good manners. Can you tell I like that business yet?:D

After zeroing an Aimpoint and function testing the little Sig .380, I went back into the store to see what pistols were on the shelves. They've had a few Rocks, but they've always been 9mms.

A new but badly scratched up 5" Tactical model with smooth wood grips came out first with a price tag of $550 hanging off it. I told the salesman he'll need to knock quite a bit off the price to sell that one.

The next one out was a nearly flawless 5" Tactical .45 Auto model with rubber grips. I flipped the tag over to see a price of $440. I quickly checked barrel/slide/frame fit, dropped the hammer a couple times, and all was good, so I bought it.

I'll post a quick pic in a few minutes.

First off Welcome back Grizz, and Rocks are really nice now a days,

Clyde

[Grizzman]

It's good to be back.

I really did miss this place.

I like it so far, and I haven't even shot it yet.

I field stripped it and lubed it up for a range trip that'll happen on Tuesday night.

[NAMVET72]

You need some of LoneStar Grips aka Zane for it , ditch the rubber ones.............


Clyde

[NAMVET72]

Come Grizz let's see the new grips, and range report w/pics.....

I ended up going with black VZ double diamonds for grips.

I've thoroughly upgraded it, and here's a lousy phone photo of it.

While wasting time today (on vacation out of town), I went to a gun store to check on powder/primers and walked out with a .45 TAC 1911 II.

[NAMVET72]

Nice but still the ugly silly rubber grips, come on get some Custom Grips.........


Clyde

[Riverpigusmc]

I like it. You reall need to look at Lonestar Grips in our craftsmen section. About time you got your happy a** back here, btw

[Grizzman]

Those are actually the VZs. They are far from attractive, but I sure like how they feel.

I will be adding wood grips at some point.

[BadOscar]

Very nice. I like that. And good to see you Grizz

[Sheepdog]

Nice pickup grizz.

[Grizzman]

My rebate check arrived today, less than three weeks after sending in proof of purchase.

I plan to send in the 2nd one in tomorrow.

I've cut an ambi-slot into an Ahrend's fully checkered Cocobolo grip for use on the TAC, and will post a photo soon.

[Caleb]

Looking good!
