STI Legacy found one if anyone's looking

Texas Bulldog · 03-08-2011, 19:22

If i had the funds i would snag it right away. I think this STI has the most Class

.

This is one i always keep an eye out for and thought maybe it would help someone out.

Thanks to BAC, I got mine last year. Anyone interested might want to jump on it. GREAT gun. VERY accurate and as well built as any of my semi-customs.

That is a beautiful looking gun!

Mine was NIB, but that one looks to be a really nice one for sure. Plus it has a few upgrades that make up for it already having been fired IMO. Come on guys. A GT'er has got to buy that thing.

You have $1,500 you can float me?

I wish I did Hokie.

IMO, the Legacy is a better 1911 than the KC you have coming. You might would be better off selling it and buying the Legacy. I know I may get slammed for that statement, but I personally believe it to be true.

It's not too late to change your mind Paul.

Yeah, I could just let George keep the 20% and still have enough to pay for the Legacy.

The Legacy is my favorite STI and certainly one of the best 1911s they ever built.

Quack · 03-08-2011, 22:08

they could at least fill it in with a pink crayon or something

Folsom_Prison · 03-08-2011, 22:14

Very nice pistola! To bad I don't have the coin lol.

bikewriter · 03-09-2011, 05:15

The trigger guard sure received a nice undercut! So that and the grips are the only mods from a stock Legacy? At $1500 it sure slides into the Les Baer Premier II category.

There's no way I'd trade my Legacy for a Baer PII.

Ditto that.

bikewriter · 03-09-2011, 07:45

I don't think this is hijacking the thread since the Legacy is still in the convo, but what about the Legacy is equal to or "better" than the PII. Baer puts a lot of quality into the non-1.5 PII in terms of features (undercut tg, frontstrap checkering, tight barrel to bushing, etc.) and you can have it without the unique looking scroll work.

Interested to hear your objective input.

I never said it was better. In fact, I'd give the Baer the slight edge in build quality. The fact is that the PII is dime-a-dozen respectively in the semi-custom 1911 world.

The Legacy is a rare sight and a beautifully made production gun. Its also very different from anything STI built before or since. I like the rare stuff.

bikewriter · 03-09-2011, 08:02

I stand corrected and apologize for putting words in your mouth.

I'd buy that Legacy if not for the cursive Legacy on the slide. Petty of me, I know. Plus I would be holding my $625 STI Spartan and wondering "hmmmm, this legacy ain't that much different, should've kept searcing for a RRA!"

Well, the Legacy is no RRA Limited Match, but its head and shoulders above the Spartan.

They aren't even built by the same company.

And it's one hell of a good shootin' gun.
