    Default Which new 1911 for classic division?

    I'm looking for some ideas for a new locally supported 1911 for classic division in IPSC.

    Any pointers to who is importing and supporting what these days? I've been through a few dealer sites and from what I can see SIG has some models available, but in tan colour or non-standard 1911 slides. I suspect that the SR1911 might be the gun for me.

    Thanks :)

    Hi Shooter.

    I'm using a Sig Match Elite 1911 in 9mmP in Classic Division. Smith and Wesson also do a single stack SW1911 in 9mmP, the Pro Series. Both are IPSC Classic legal.

    If money was no object, personally, I won't mind a STI Spartan or Trojan in 9mm. Don't know about availability and back up in SA though.

    Where did you get your SIG? I'm looking for 45ACP. Need to use the 45 dies and 1911 mags I've already bought...

    Sourced it via Ihawu here in Durban, I think from BA when they were the Sig agents. Bought it about 2 years ago. I also have a S&W E Series 1911 in .45ACP which I used to use before switching to 9mmP.

    If your shooting Classic you will unfortunately regret not buying a minor gun.

    If I had the money to buy a Classic gun now, it would be a Colt Competition 9mm. A Sig in 9mm would be my second choice
