Just picked up my AIM Surplus P6 today. It's in great shape. I was expecting more holster wear. It's got the typical fading of the bluing on the front corners of the slide, but not much else.

Internally it's spotless. Shined a light and the bore was perfect.

Now...about that trigger. SA is nice. DA is possibly the worst I've ever felt (seriously). I don't have a way of testing but it feels like it's 25lbs and LONG. I'm seriously hoping that a spring swap will help that a lot, otherwise I'll be shelling out for a trigger job.

Even though the finish isn't bad, I'm going to send it CCR for the nickel-style finish anyway, and have him replace the hammer and springs.

All in all, a great deal. $260 for the pistol, $14 shipping, and a $10 FFL transfer fee = $284 for my first SIG.

Got mine (sorta). Handled while starting DROS.
Beautiful fit and finish, a little holster wear but spotless internals- and I mean pristine (underneath the dust). Feed ramp... everything... is spotless.
The reason I've never gotten a SIG is the first pull, and this one is undoubtedly the heaviest trigger I've ever felt. You really have to pull hard. Single is crisp and light. The difference is extraordinary. Saving up for the SIG conditioning (night sights, etc. $125+shipping). I too really hope some changed springs fix that trigger cause it's nasty. Magazines are clean, holster is really nice thick leather with drop attachment.
Seems to be an awesome value, will report once it sees range time.

here are some pics, mine is near flawless. There is very minimal holster wear on the edges but everything else is perfect. I placed my order a few weeks before they sold out but I had a friend who placed the order right before they sold out and his has quit a bit more wear on the exterior.
