The RIAs, he thought were better, smoother than the Ruger he had out for comparison. They seem to be a hell of a deal this day and age.

I asked about the 10 mm, he checked and if they can get one, they sale for 610.

I want a 1911 and a 10mm, so I might start with this combo.


I am sure pleased as can be with mine. I have had a pretty good pile of 1911's and this one is my all time favorite so far. When I get a couple of bucks ahead I would like to have the trigger worked on a little, but it is quite good for a factory 1911. A marvelous value, for sure. Shooting times did a big article and spread on exactly the gun we are talking of, specifically the 10mm 1911 and they were very impressed, as well.
