so I got my 'Bush recession rebate check' this past Friday, 600 smackeroos to supplement another $400 or so . So I'm looking for another handgun. Went by my local shop today. They had a couple choices. I'm looking for a .45 as I have a CZ75 9mm now.
1.) they had a used SIG P220 on consignment, 2 mags, with box and papers. The condition was in mint, with the only wear I could see is on the magazine itself (you can see the black finish wearing off). Night sights would be an extra $100 or so if I wanted them to install them. Price was $599. I can get a new P220 for $730 + 5% tax at another local gun shop without night sights.
2.) Kimber Custom TLE II Stainless for $1015.. I like the checkering on the magazine well. But I notice less negatives with Sig P220s than with the Kimber 1911s when doing my research on gun forums.
another option I was considering is Fusion Firearms Fusion PRO-Series ELITE Custom $1295 I saw this online so I would have to order it but the features look pretty sweet. But for $1300, man, thats a bit pricey.
grip-wise, the SIG and Kimber feel good. Anyone have problems with the Kimber Custom TLE II?
pass on the SIG and go for the upper end 1911?
