Next Up: The "Dogs Playing Poker" Edition.

I realize that to describe a Ron Cohen-era blingalicious Limited Edition SIG as "tacky" is like calling the ocean "a little damp" but you've gotta love the ΜΟΛΩΝ ΛΑΒΕ-edition GSR that comes with special grips... that are beveled at the bottom on a gun with a factory magwell.

That's, like, the high-end 1911 equivalent of plumber's crack.

  1. Saw that. Glad you said something. I'd be embrassed if I were SIG

  2. I am not certain that SIG any longer retains the capacity for embarrassment.

  3. That looks like the "404" edition of the 1911.

  4. Maybe they've partnered up with Popeil? Those look like Slim Whitman stocks.

  5. Would have to have matching Ronco Slim Whitman bushings naturally.

  6. From the comments: To bad, Greece couldn’t afford this if they sold the rest of their arsenal.
    Now, that's funny right there.

  8. If this will shoot my stash of Zombie Max(tm) ammo, I'd tap it.

  9. Great, now you said Ron Cohen out loud. Now I have to go to the gun safe and clean a pre-War Smith or something.

  10. Do "high end" and "SIG" even belong in the same post together anymore?

  11. Hey, if they had a "Dogs Playing Poker" themed gun (as per the famous painting "A Friend In Need"), I'd be all over that.

    It would go SO well with my tie of the same design.

  12. Remembering our recent conversation in gunsmithing...

  13. I've always said that Brooks Tactical needed to add "Dogs Playing Poker" and "Velvet Elvis" versions of their A-Grip.

  14. Raving Prophet beat me to it, but I would totally wear the heck out of a "Dogs Playing Poker" 1911 as a barbecue gun.

    Especially if I could get Dennis to do a matching custom "Dogs Playing Poker" holster.

  17. Shootin' Buddy:

    Whatever you do, do not look into the mirror and say "Ron Cohen" three times.

    The last time someone did that, Colt introduced the All American 2000.

  18. Wasn't Ron Cohen in some movie with Ginger Lee, "Behind the Chrome Door" -?

  19. I always feel like such a retard when I say, "Mow-un Waa-bay" with that whole "ding fries are done" thing...
