    Sig M11-A1

    Sig M11-A1, aka: bastardized P228, aka: P229-1 no rail
    150 rounds of S&B 115gr. FMJ, 50 rounds Fiocchi 115gr. FMJ, 50 rounds Monarch 124gr. JHP, 50 rounds Aguila 124gr. FMJ and 50 rounds Speer Gold Dot 124gr. JHP ready to hit the range in a couple of hours for it's maiden voyage.
    Should have the 2000 round challenge done by Sunday if everything goes off well today.
    The trigger is a little gritty right now but should smooth up with use. The short reset trigger is very nice. The short trigger is "meh", i'm getting a tiny bit of finger pinch in dry fire.
    3 mags and night sights are nice considering Sig has been known to ship a single mag and an IOU.

    Lived with a 229R for about 3 years. Shot well and disappeared in a Sparks Versa Max II. Still wonder why I quit it.

    Very interested in this, as I have almost purchased on several occasions.
    Taking a break from social media.

    I like these Jody threads.

    I have 2 229 no rail pistols. My only issue is I use a Safariland ALS holster enough and the non rail pistols seem harder to get a proper fit. Those with the SAS treatment for example, fit differently than a no rail 229.
    Likes pretty much everything in every caliber.

    Please include legacy 13 round magazines in the challenge.

    Should be interesting. I just finished the 2K challenge on a MK25. The best thing about SIG's is how smooth the triggers become after a few thousand rounds.

    Are those CM magazines that came with it Jody, or MG?

    For 229-1 mags I have 9 Checkmates and 1 MecGar magazine.
    The M11-A1 came with 3 CM's.
    I might have a real "legacy" 13 round mag (from 1994 or so) in my box-o-stuff, I'll look for it later.
    I'm packed and headed to the range now, should be back in a couple of hours.

    I did one of those on a MK 25 a while back. It really wanted lubrication by the end--the slide started slowing down and it was just barely making it back into battery, but it completed the 2000 rounds. Very nice pistol--but it likes to be run wet!
