I really like the looks of this gun! ECO is gorgeous! Quote:

Where are the pics?
I'm gonna be ready for a new nice 1911 (and a Rock) by the end of the year, and am considering an ECO.

My EDC is my ECO and it is my favorite pistol. It is a great value for what it has (which is everything). Mine shoots where I point it and looks great.

Thanks for your feedback.
There was one at a LGS today, but it was a blem and a 9mm.

Save for the .45 variant. Mine is a dream to shoot and on par with my EB with respect to fit and finish.

I didn't even ask to pick it up.
Any 9mm I get in the 1911 platform needs to have a number larger than 19 after the X.  In my opinion, DW shouldn't be selling blems, and I'm not going to support the business practice. The shop also had a non-treated Valor next to the ECO, also a blem. I've probably seen as many blems in that shop as perfect examples. I'm still leaning heavily towards an ECO, but I still haven't shot a VBOB.

What's the street price on the ECO? That MSRP is outrageous. My Sig Ultra Carry was half that price!

I expect to be able to pick one up for around $1500 or so, which sounds like a steal to me (for Wilson quality).
I've had bad luck with Sigs from a reliability perspective, so won't go down that road again any time soon.

Yeah Sigs are half the price because they are half the gun that the ECO is.
I picked mine up used for $1200. It was like new and I purchased it from a nice gentleman that was ex-military and was only selling because he needed the money for family issues. Best money I ever spent. Sent from my Samsung Galaxy S4

I paid around $1500 new for mine last year. Current demand seems to be driving DW up like crazy. Check Gunbroker to get an initial idea. Also look at the Blemish variants for a little less money.
