PLEASE READ BEFORE POSTING - IMPORTANT MESSAGE - PLEASE READ BEFORE POSTING
Please note that the forums in this category are to be used to ask questions or to show us pistols from these manufacturers. They can also be used to ask questions about the parts of a particular pistol from one of these manufacturers, as long as the question relates to the original parts.

  • If your pistol malfunctions and you want to ask for help on how to troubleshoot it, post your question in the "Gunsmithing and Refinishing" forum, not in this one.
  • If you want to ask questions about after-market parts, these questions should go in the "Parts - Grips" forum, not in the manufacturers forums.
  • If you want to ask questions about after-market magazines, these questions should go in the "Magazines" forum, not in these forums.
  • If you want to ask questions about holsters, those questions should go in the "Holsters" forum, not in these forums.
  • If you want to ask questions about conversion kits, those questions should go in the "Conversion Kits" forum, not these forums.
  • If you want to ask questions about which ammo to use with your pistol, those questions should be posted in the "Ammo" forum, not these forums.

Messages with questions for after-market parts, magazines, holsters, conversion kits, ammo etc. will be moved to the proper forum and a warning will be issued.

IMPORTANT: In Photo-threads, each post should contain at least one picture of your own. Quoting a previous post, does not make your post compliant with that requirement. Photo threads are NOT for chatting.

Sig or Smith Commander

I am shopping for a commander sized pistol. I have narrowed my search down to either a Sig Platinum Carry or a Smith PD. Does anybody have any feedback on either of these models. I know the Platinum model will not be released until after the Shot Show. But any feedback on any of the Sig Commander sized pistols would be greatly appreciated. The Sig seems to have a lot nice features like checkered front strap and night sights.

I'm interested in what others have to say about this, but between the two you ask about, I'd definitely get the Smith - it uses standard holsters and I believe is closer to the original design. And I have read a ton of good reviews, with very few bad ones, on the Smith.

I'd also look closely at a Colt.

Well, I bought the Sig. I am very happy with it very accurate with an excellent trigger pull. I am still interested in getting a Smith 1911.
