STI Edge

Postby Ron Burgundy on Sat Mar 02, 2013 11:00 am

Anyone know where I can wrap my little sausage fingers around one? I don't shoot we'll enough to buy one but I sure would like to fondle one and see if it is as nice as all the guys in BE say.

jest go to USPSA match... kiss up to a few Ltd shooters... follow em to the safe area, after the match... one of em's bound to take pity on ya! ;)

FWIW, such a gun, itself, makes ya a good nuff shooter, to buy one!

I knew it was the equipment that was holding me back!

If anyone offers to let ya shoot one, refuse!

Once ya try one, ya realize it only costs 3-4 glocks to be able to utterly destroy everyone in Ltd-10! Then thoughts turn to polyester shirts and baseball shoes... next thing ya know, yer kids... and yer wife... are callin someone else daddy! :|

...it ain't purdy!

I have a nice infinity limited gun I would be happy to let you fondle or even shoot. It is only a little nicer then the edge. :smile::

Retread, I'm going to take you up on that someday. I wouldn't even know where to begin ordering a custom job like an Infinity --- so many options.

I'm severely lacking in the basic fundamentals of shooting but I can't stop day dreaming of a custom or semi-custom 2011 style blaster.

Thanks! Cabellas is usually the last place I think of. It looks like the library only has one Edge and that pig is all the way down in Texas -- I will keep the library in mind though.

Just try to meet with Sawgrass and handle her Guncrafter's SS Commander, or for that matter my 50GI, which isn't as pretty, but it's supremely badass - same quality, and straight up 1911's too...

I just switched (about 9 months ago) to an STI Eagle (same thing as an Edge, essentially, but without a full length dust cover and a bushed barrel to make it IDPA legal). I don't know why the hell I waited so long. That pistol almost shoots itself.

I do have a custom grip on there that's reduced thickness. I made the mistake of letting the wife shoot it. "Wow this is nice!" Yep, buying another STI :(
