Sub $250 .22LR pistols?

[Blind Sniper]

LOL, sorry about the headache Ben! Figured the mags had to be built tough - my .22 rifle's mag is literally nothing but pinned and welded steel, that thing is -tough-.

The GSG 1911 is darned near a clone of the SIG 1911-22. I bought SIG mags and can't tell the difference other than the markings. Darned things are metal and STOUT; however, I understand the base plates are the weak point IF you mag drop onto the ground/pavement.

The pistols are less easy to find since they were German made and the US SIG folks are having a squabble over receiving any more German pistols. For all practical purposes, GSG is owned by SIG, I believe.

The SIG 1911-22 is just a rebadged GSG. Same gun, but a higher price because of the SIG markings...

Find a way to get free shipping and a cheap FFL fee and this is a killer deal. Even with sales tax, this ain't half bad!

Holy shit, that's an awesome deal. Pity the GSG mags are apparently either unobtanum or insanely expensive.

Au contraire...SIG mags are out there...no need to look for GSG branded ones. Even SIG has them for a good price!
http://store.sigsauer.com/1911-10rd-22lr-magazine.html I've got seven of them!

I stand corrected, sweet. Money problems are gone, so I'm gonna talk with SWMBO about ordering us a pair of those target-model 1911s. How is CDNN on shipping? Next match is in two weeks, be nice if we could get the guns broken in before then.

Damn! That's a deal. I've shot one before and they are pretty nice.

I've only ordered a couple of times from them; but the sooner, the quicker as someone once said. Plus, they may have a limited stock of these pistols...this is a pretty good deal

I got my orders right zippy; but it was for mags and accessories.

Well, missed out on the GSG deal (as of this morning they're back up to $270). Talked to mom about it, she's on board with it (more or less - her initial response was "maybe I'll buy it and let you borrow it") if I find a similar deal. Got the funds set aside, so the hunt goes on...

Also, WTF is up with Buds' pricing? Noticed a bit of fluctuation with the models I linked to in the OP - when I started this thread, the SAA-10 was at $210 cash, now it's down to $195 or so. Ain't complaining, but it's just weird...

Keep an eye on Palmetto State Armory, that is where I picked mine up for $199 delivered. It took a while to find one that low, but it happens. I used SlickGuns.com to track it.

Good luck! M2

Where are you located?

Bay City, Michigan.

Oh, Dang! Never mind then. 1911-22 GSG is a great gun, but they are going for almost $260 dealer cost now. They are becoming well renowned.

I'll throw in another vote for the GSG 1911. Mine has been great...

Classic Firearms has the Phoenix Arms .22 for $120

[Blind Sniper]

Lol, I'm not that desperate, Dan :P Besides, even if the Phoenix is a good gun, it's way too small for my hands.

 

[majormadmax]

That's one thing I love about the GSG is that it is a full-sized 1911, just in .22LR. It functions just like a .45 version, just with quite a bit less recoil...

 

[outdare]

Cdnn has the gsg target on sale for $219. http://www.cdnnsports.com/email-spe...lr-5-rail-target-grips-1-10.html#.Vd9oVXMo7qA

 

[Blind Sniper]

I looked at that one last week, it was back to $279.. Good to see the price dropping again.
