gsg1911 vs sig 1911 22

[Scott Max Danger]

Are these the same guns with different logos and price tags ? They look awefully similar.

Yes, GSG manufactures that gun for Sig as well as for it's own brand...slight differences in trim and of course the Sig name pushes up the price on that one. I plan to buy a GSG for cheap practice with a 1911 frame.

Same gun, different paint job. I'd buy the GSG from Blueline for the warranty and service and save yourself over $100. Unless you really want to pay for the Sig name.

One thing that "sorta" bring the price closer is that the SIG comes with two mags where as the GSG, only one.

Wolverine seems to have the best prices on GSG guns and mags...

When I went shopping for one of these, Q had the Sig 1911-22 on sale for $403 with 2 mags. Done deal for me especially when I preferred the cosmetics of the Sig.
Yes the GSG and Sig are basically the same and I bought extra mags from Wolverine once I decided to keep it.

 

[jackrabbit000]

The Sig 1911-22 does come with 2 mags. Sig mags are $39.99 and GSG mags are $29.99 at Cabelas . The Sig comes in Black, Olive Drab and Flat dark Earth (see shooterschoice.ca). Not sure about the GSG though.

same gun, different finish and grips

The Sig mags are the same as the GSG's. So buy the cheaper priced GSG mags and you're good to go. (IIRC $26 at Wolverines)

I can tell you from experience..Blueline's customer service is second to none...

I haven't seen a gsg up close, but I can tell you the fit and finish on the Sig is nice (for a plastic 1911). The rosewood grips are pretty.

Ahhh.. I know for sure its not a plastic 1911....

 

[WASNTME]

The slide is plastic, the frame isn't. It's still more plastic than the average 1911.

All metal pistol, slide and frame. Anyone who has owned one knows the truth.

If the Sig 1911 22 has a more durable finish, it might be worth the extra $ (if on sale), but that is yet to be seen. They are the same pistol.

The slide on a GSG 1911 is not plastic.

 

[Blue Line]

The Slide on the GSG is a Zinc Alloy. As for the finish on the GSG's, there have been many developments with regards to upgrading the finishing on the pistols. We will also see Olive Drab as well as Tan versions showing up in the New Year.

Well I'll be. I guess my "bite test" failed me. I was sure that it was plastic. I'll accept your corrections. Mea culpa.

 

[Hitzy]

Sights are plastic, as is the recoil buffer disc....but I think that's it.

+1 One of the best (if not the best) Customer Service among Canadian dealers. I can't wait to see the GP Pistols line.
