While the M11-A1 is really just a hybrid of the P228 and P229, I rather like it. Some like it less because it has the P229 forged slide rather than the P228 stamped slide. I actually prefer the forged slide, so that's not an issue for me.

As for whether you should get it rather than two Glocks...if you're looking from a functionality perspective, probably not. A G17 and a G26 gives you a great pair of weapons that can share supplies while filling multiple roles.

But, if you really want that slick, tough-as-nails Sig experience and you're just going to be sitting there staring at your Glocks wishing they were the Sig, get the Sig.

Also keep in mind they are different trigger systems. The Glocks are Glock's "safe action" DAO, whereas the M11-A1 is a DA/SA with a Short Reset Trigger. If you're not used to one of them, that may be an issue.

Either way you're getting quality. At this point be honest with yourself about your preference.
