SACS or another Wilson Combat for next 1911???

[mshogren]

Thinking about my next custom 1911.

Trying to decide between a Springfield Armory Custom Shop gun or another Wilson combat. I currently have 2 Wilson's and have had others, but have never had a SACS gun nor have I even seen one in person.

What say you INGO? SACS or WIlson Combat...

Thanks for your input.

Variety is the spice of life!

Get the SA Professional. You only live once!

 

[mshogren]

The SA I am considering is what some call a mini-pro. It is a custom compact optioned like a pro.

Why go with the Caddy if you can afford the exotic. This would be my pick.



Wait, I think it was my pick.

Just so happens that a Stealth is the one Wilson i am considering... It would go great with the Tac Elite i got from you and the Elite Professional I have...

Tough decision...

Well, since you mentioned him...my avatar is a full rail operator I got from him. You would never guess it since I put Wilson grips on it...

Oh, and I do love it! And I have considered another one from him.

P.S. Here is the full-size pic...

SA is a fine piece. Wilson is a finer piece. If you can afford the Wilson, you can afford both. "Both" gets my vote!

I see a SA professional in my very near future, hopefully my wife doesn't notice.

 

[mshogren]

Both is a distinct possibility eventually, can't do both at once. At least I don't have a wife to worry about...just an ex...

Pictures may come...eventually...

I have the Springfield professional operator from the custom shop. I don't have any shooting experience with any Wilson pistols but I love my Springfield. My first
1911 was an early Springfield loaded model which was and is a good gun and shot much better and more reliably than my dad's series 70 colt. But the custom shop is much better than my old Springfield and I believe a great value. If I buy another 1911 that's not a Springfield it will be a baer or nighthawk but I will probably stick with what I have for a long long time.

Don't forget there is a Les Baer too. I have one of those and a Wilson Combat officer. I ended up trading the officer for an AR. The Les Baer I have is a full size 1911 and I can shoot it better than any other guns I have.

Pictures???? I'll meet you at the range and we can decide which one is a better shooter

Can't go wrong with the Wilson, I have a Stealth and love it.
