American Classic 22 Government

[MadDawgr]

I see Ellwood Epps has about 30 of these in stock for $329. Anyone have any experience with them? Is it a decent pistol?

Just looking for a decent semi auto 22 for range practice.

Haven't shot one and don't know anyone with one,

but you can't beat a SGS 1911 .22

From memory its a rebadged Chiappa imported into the US by Eagle Imports. I'm sure I read a review in a magazine months ago.

GSG 1911 or SIG 1911, one and the same pistol. GSG as distributed by Blueline, best customer service. Can't beat that kind of customer support.

There was a dealer in the EE that was selling these a couple weeks ago for $300 taxes and shipping included!!! Great deal almost bought one. I think it was prophet river. Memory failing!! Lol. I'll have a look and see. They might be sold out but I think they are getting more. I researched them and they were chiappa just different name

The fit and finish on them is absolutely garbage, and that is pretty much my opinion of the gun overall as well.

The GSG is much nicer.
