The KRISS Super-V SMG leads this team’s charge so that modern crime doesn’t stand a chance!



Glocks in .45 ACP and the KRISS SMGs and carbines can all share the same Glock 21 and KRISS MagEx magazines.


Buckeye, Arizona, is a community in the Phoenix metropolitan area that is home to approximately 53,000 residents. It covers 680 square miles and is located in Maricopa County, 35 miles west of Phoenix and 115 miles north of the Mexican border. The local economy has suffered from the same malaise that affects most areas of the country: housing foreclosures have forced some residents to leave the county, while at the same time, an influx of new residents from other areas has also brought in a criminal element.

“We’ve seen certain crimes such as home invasion and carjacking performed by juveniles who have arrived here from places as far away as California, in addition to crimes committed by local juveniles,” Sergeant Mike Haddad, Team Leader of the Buckeye Police Department S.W.A.T. team told me. “In some of the home invasions, they ring the doorbell, and if there’s no answer, they think the house is unoccupied and kick the door in. Sometimes the homeowner is upstairs, didn’t hear the doorbell, but heard the door being kicked in, and they rush downstairs. That’s when it gets ugly.”




The KRISS SMG is short and balances well between the fore and aft grips. Its size makes it very easy to shoot and deploy.

Custom-quality 1911 at a duty-ready price point!



The X-TAC from Wilson Combat is a simple and straightforward custom 1911, featuring highly effective “X” pattern serrations adorning the slide and the grip frame of the pistol.


THE 1911 PISTOL has experienced a pretty significant resurgence in the last few years. A pistol that was once maligned as “too aggressive” or “unsafe” by police administrators is once again gaining wider acceptance. With the exception of a few states, and some less knowledgeable administrators and armorers this mythology has all but disappeared. Agencies are not only allowing the 1911 pistol as a personal choice, many are moving to them department wide. It is a testament to the design for sure. The 1911 pistol is rugged, reliable, accurate and has proven itself in actual gunfights time and time again. Tactical teams and high-risk units have used them for years with great success. Given the opportunity, many special operations units will take a 1911 over just about any other pistol. It is a proven design, and as is often the case, it is making a full circle back into popularity.

There is a reason this particular design has withstood the times — it aims and shoots naturally for most people almost without regard to experience level. Given various grip changes it can accommodate most any hand, and the slim design makes it perfect for inside the waistband carry. Given the quality of materials and machining today they can be built to incredible tolerances. Even some custom pistols today cost less than the same upgrades would have cost 15 years ago. It has really put the 1911 in a place where it can accommodate just about any task it is called upon to undertake.



The X-TAC features a non-ambidextrous thumb safety as well a generously upswept beavertail grip safety to help prevent “hammer bite.”


During the initial onslaught of the polymer pistol, the 1911 enjoyed broad use in the police world, especially undercover, off-duty, or in plainclothes. This was especially true for agencies that issued 5-shot .38 Special revolvers to their detectives. Many wanted the extra capacity and the ability to use the venerable .45 ACP cartridge. This was especially true for those officers that found themselves in need of their pistol as something other than a desk ornament.



Key to the X-TAC’s excellent handling characteristics is the “X” pattern serrations on the front- and backstraps. The X-TAC features Wilson Combat’s iconic “Starburst” grips, featuring smooth grooves radiating out from the center.

New battle sights


Standard picatinny rail


Takedown: Remove the two screws as shown below. Third one is a dummy.


Tried to remove the rail by removing these two screws but it seems the rail is glued to the receiver




Test fire showed the sight to be very low (5m). First six shots are really low (in red) but very good groupings, within 2 inches. I adjusted my sights but still low (in green).


Chrono readings: 77-76-77-76-76-73 m/s


Overall Impression

I would say this gun would be a very valuable addition to your collection, if you are a biohazard fan. But if you are just plain airsoft gamer, then I would not recommend this to be use for skirmishes. The finish and overall appearance really look so good to be used in the field. This should go in your display case.

Sig Sauer has a reputation for making high quality and innovative firearms. A few weeks ago we took a look at the S&W 329PD as a backup handgun when carrying afield. Given that 2011 is the centennial of Jonathan Browning's excellent 1911 pistol; we decided to take a look at Sig Sauer's new 1911 Scorpion. While the 1911 in 45ACP doesn't pack the punch of some revolver only cartridges, its durability and reliability has made it a favorite of hunters for generations.

The Sig Sauer 1911 Scorpion.



Sig is not new to manufacturing 1911's, having produced many models under the GSR label for years. They also produced the Sig 220 in a variety of cartridges (although 45ACP is the only production cartridge today) for decades. The 220 in a SA/DA configuration is definitely different than a 1911, but the slim profile and similar ergonomics to the 1911 make it a good choice when considering a single stack, all metal, 45ACP pistol.

The most noticeable features of the new 1911 Scorpion is the new Hogue G10 grips and the desert tan Cerakote finish. The grips, with what Hogue calls "Piranha" texturing, really grabs the hands. Combine the grip with the high lines-per-inch front strap checking and the Scorpion does not lack in hand grip, which makes the gun easier to control under slick wet conditions. In addition the grip also has an integrated back strap and beveled out magazine well extension that make it easier to guide in a loaded magazine when reloading.



The Hogue G10 Piranha grip is colorful and adds a good deal of texture. A nice addition in the back strap has been changed out for the matching texturing as well.

The grip and back strap come together to form an extended magazine well that helps guide in a quick magazine reload.
The other noticeable feature is the factory Cerakote finish that has been applied over the stainless steel frame and slide. Cerakote is a ceramic based finish that armors the firearm and improves abrasion and corrosion resistance. This makes the Scorpion much more resistant to scratches and rust. While we did not test the coating for scratch resistance, past experience with other firearms coated with Cerakote or Duracoat have proven to be effective in fighting scratches and rust. Although you should always still take the time to clean off your guns after use and/or after getting wet.



Two piece feed ramp. Notice also that the Cerakote finish is on the inside of the slide as well as the frame.

Beyond the grips and finish, Sig has included a variety of other features that have come to be expected of a higher end 1911. Namely low profile tritium night sights, a lightweight trigger, a larger external extractor, beaver-tail safety grip, and an ambidextrous safety. The ambidextrous safety uses the "short" format which is nice if you intend to equip the Scorpion with a Crimson Trace laser grip. Longer, standard ambidextrous safeties tend to hit the laser housing and do not work correctly. The Scorpion is also equipped with a picatinny front rail for attaching lights or lasers at your discretion. Sig also includes two eight round magazines with the Scorpion.


The "short" ambidextrous safety. The Scorpion also includes low profile Trijicon night sights.


The Scorpion does not have a full length guide rod, but it does include a picatinny rail.

The Scorpion, like most Sig 1911's, is exceptionally tight out of the box. There is little wobble in the slide and will take a few hundred rounds to break in. The trigger breaks cleanly and crisply with no noticeable burrs.

On the downsides the Scorpion does not have a full length guide rod, no front slide serrations, and the barrel ramp is a standard two piece design. We are also not particularly fond of the flat triggers; however this is personal preference and being a 1911 the trigger can be changed.

Overall the Scorpion is an excellent offering considering the asking price. It should be long lasting and corrosion/scratch resistant and offers an excellent grip. The 1911 makes an excellent back up firearm when in the backcountry and the Scorpion is worth considering if you're in the market for a new sidearm.
