Page 2 - SIG Sauer 1911 Spartan Reviews

The gun handles really well and has excellent power.
Highly recommend the gun for an inexpensive gun handling and target practice.

I'm writing not because I am dissatisfied with the product. I own a couple of Sigs for my own use. These two were for my grandsons -- ages 7 & 8. When I received them, I realized that they were about as heavy as the "real thing" (the one I wore in Vietnam).

So, I need some advice. I ended up buying the boys two decent bb rifles and still have the Sigs. I would like to know if I can exchange the guns (still in their boxes) for another product. I already have .22s for the boys (Browning). I think it would be great to have the boys learn pistol with bb guns, but these are just too heavy. Please advise. Not trying to cheap it out, but just trying to give them something that they'll love to use. We'll be heading to the indoor range soon with their bb rifles; would love to add lightweight bb pistols to the mix.
Thanks for any help.

This is an accurate easy to shoot BB gun. use it to run of possums and raccoons even without the BBs it has a satisfying pop that makes the varmits run. Also using it to improve my wife's accuracy by shooting at targes. The pistol has a nice heft to it as well.

Feels just like a full size 1911 pistol. Moving slide is a nice touch. CO2 cartridge is easy to load. Magazines are easy to load and very inexpensive to purchase. Cartridge life is very good.

The thumb safety takes a little getting used to. The realy pistol does not have the extra button on it.

First CO2 air gun for me.

The gun is so much fun. Looks and feels like the real thing.
Two draw backs;
1-Loading the CO 2 cylinder takes some getting used to. Would be nice if you could just unscrew a cap under the grip, drop in the CO2 and screw the cap back on.
2- maybe come up with a double stack “BB mag”. Just start enjoying the shoot and it’s out of BB’s. Maybe sell extra mags? Very tedious loading the BB’s into the little hole in the mag.
But once all is said and done it’s a fun gun to practice with.

Very happy with this BB gun. And quite surprised by its accuracy and range.

shoots straight but not very powerful. great for plinking!

my favorite handgun in the 1911 and having it as a bb gun is amazing and with the spartan aesthetic, its perfect

Love these guns they are very realistic and my kids enjoy the feel of 45 without the noise- I have 2 off the were the people and one spartan
-sig is the only mfg I buy carry and shoot

I found it to be extremely nice. I’m very happy with this purchase.

You've made a well build BB gun.
I would like to see you include "two" magazines and, a little less gas used for the blow back action.
The co2 insertion/reload looses "zero gas" as others do and thats great but you lose some on the replacement operation, when the pressure goes down you have to rake the slide on each shot.
So far one of the best BB guns i'v owned and I love all SIG products but if I know this company as I think I do they will continue to adjust, test, R&D, and build better each time..Waiting for the carbon fiber model lol and an extra clip.

Wanted the X5 air gun but was OOS, so picked up this one. SIG quality. Love the weight, feel and action. Surprisingly accurate, sights were right on . Everyone loves shooting it, so had to put a limit of 1 cartridge each per session. Out of the box the safety release button was hard to press and the CO2 mechanism a little stiff. Was getting about 4 mags per CO2 cartridge. So lubed everything lightly with oil first, then applied MoS2 powder. CO2 mechanism and safety work smoothly. Moly'd the slide and barrel next. Major improvement can get 6 magazines per cartridge now. Made a little feeder tube to make loading BBs faster. Being OCD started applying moly to everything including my new P320 X5 Legion.

Feel and look is terrific.

The spartan emblem is goofy. But I still love the gun.

No.

I didn’t even get two games out of this pistol i ran it for one game an my magazine started bleeding not too mention cant find replacement magazines anywhere do not recommend im very upset about this purchase

Initially I bought the gun for fun but realized it's powerful for sure and not meant for anything other than in a controlled environment [in the woods, or at a gun range], it is a little loud my only complaint is after about 4 mags the co2 runs out. I wish there was a co2 mechanism in the gun that also had a spring assisting mechanism in the gun to make it just sip the co2 and not make it just rely on co2 that being said the gun works amazing and no doubt anyone will be happy with the gun. Would recommend for anyone learning to shoot or for the pure fun.

I have had this gun for a few days an nothing is going wrong. It is precise and feels like the real thing. Would recommend

Put one air cartridge (correct size) couldn't get it out. Got it out now it won't work. Won't pierce the next cartridge. Piece of junk.

Looks really good. Easy to use. Great acuracy and a powerful gun. Not to mention a great price too! Highly recommended.

Looks and feels like a real 1911. Shoots pretty and is pretty accurate at about 7-10yds. Is a great training tool. I shot about 4-5 mags on 1 CO2 cartridge and did perform well. Only negative, is the magazine is very thin and is difficult to work with for mag changes.

It shoots well. Pretty accurate. The sights are ok, but the function of the gun is as real as it gets. . I got about 3 and half mags with 1 CO2 cartridge. I think I did about 200-300 rounds thru it and had no issues.
It’s worth the investment.
