I just bought one of the last Sig GSR XOs in stainless finish. $599 delivered from BudsGunShop brand new. I hear they bought Sigs remaining stock of these  now that they are discontinued.

-The frame to slide fit is very good. I am used to a Colt Series 80, and this thing makes it seem loose.
-The trigger feels very clean without being broken in, and you don't really notice the trigger safety.
- I was dry firing and using the reset method I shoot Glocks with, the gun feels superb.
-The magazines are not Novak's/ACT-Mag like most Sig 1911s come with. They are a knock off that will not the first round in a full mag if it is JHP, but it will if you load only 7 rounds.
-The thumb safety appears and feels like MIM or some other non-machined part.
-The "speed bump" on the grip safety works great! Often my hand will not engage a beaver tail
-The grips are a hard plastic. Which I like since they looked like squishy rubber from the pics.
-The sights are three dot contrast Novak's
-The MSH is metal
-The thumb safety and slide stop are slightly extended, but more like a "tactical" model like from Wilson
-The mag release button sits higher than my Colt, so I guess it is extended

Guess people preferred the Black coating on the XO.

I ran 150 rounds of various FMJ and some mixed in Ranger Bonded. Fired every round and not miss feeds :D.

I don't think this really is a 1911 since it is accurate and works every time.

EDIT: Forgot to mention I didn't have my holster yet, so it was in my pocket while locked back. It fell muzzle first into the dirt and plugged the barrel. I pushed it out with a stick and ran a bore snake a few times and blew dirt our of the internals. It proceeded to shoot the remaining 100 rounds.
