ditching the XDs45, looking at the Sig Carry Nightmare

[schufflerbot]

It's official, I'm done with the springfield XDs. I called today, SA has had mine for 33 days now and I was curious as to when I can expect it back. The girl on the line advised that they have yet to solidify a solution to the problem.



So I asked about expected timeline and she said she could not estimate. I finally got her to admit that it could be 6 months to a year before I get it back.

I am talking with SA management about a refund and will most likely be going with the Sig Sauer Carry Nightmare.

Does anyone have any experience with this particular weapon?

thanks!

Hope your Sig works good enough that you won't have to keep sending it back

My buddy has a Sig 1911 and now he also has my SA EMP .40 both are outstanding firearms. I regret selling him my EMP .40 as I used part of the funds to buy a XDS 9mm.

I also have a Sig P238 and it's perfect as well. My wife has considerable experience with Sig as well military training weapon... That really should say a lot. The price is high but the product is worth it.

I am curious if they will refund your money. I would love to have my money back.

I carry a Sig P239 every day. I'm curious. What is the Sig Carry Nightmare?

What was/is wrong with your XDs45?

SA has issued a recall - stated you should immediately stop using the firearm and return it to SA.

Sig's Commander length bobbed 1911. All black, pretty slick piece.

i've been scolded too many times for incorrectly posting links so if you want to see it, just google 'Sig Sauer carry nightmare.'

thanks for the experience reports, y'all. i'm excited to be getting back into the 1911 game!

Link: 1911 Carry Nightmare. It is a carry version of their 1911 in their Nightmare finish.

Out of all the models, I like the Rubber Grip version best. It's a perfect fit for my hand with the 7 round mag and finger rest. I believe it is smaller than the XDS that I bought recently-- and, like yours, is now in the possession of SA. I love it. Smallest 9mm I've seen. If I'd seen the P938 before I got the XDS, I might not have bought the XDS in the frist place. Not as easy to shoot accurately as a full size, but with a little practice I was hitting a 10" gong at 40 yards. And it comes with tritium sights.

Oops...are we talking about the same gun....there is a P938 Nightmare....a miniature 1911....smaller than the XDS.

That's very similar to my EDC, a Dan Wesson Guardian .45. The Guardian has an aluminum frame, which cuts the weight down by about 10 ounces.

My Guardian:

The weight is a downer (pun intended) on the SA EMP .40 all steel really gives it some heft. I still regret selling it

It was probably one of the best shooting guns I had owned in sometime.

Ive only shot a 9mm emp once and i think i've finally decided to try and find a used one if I can. It was a freaking tack driver which seems rare for such a small firearm

[OrangeAnimal]

Get the .40 instead you'll be glad you did! It's a serious tack driver.

Glad I've held off on sending mine back just yet.
