I just picked up an RIA Tactical Compact. It shoots very well, and I posted a thread on this that included photos of groups. No one responded so I'll say it again.

It was very accurate, easily controllable with full strength ammunition AND reliably fed semi-wadcutter cast lead too. I could easily get 3" groups at 25 yards! So much for those who say they aren't accurate.

It's actually more controllable than the Springfield XD-S due to a better designed grip. Reliability is on par with a full sized 1911, if you do your part.

They are not as easily concealed as the XD-S

See my thread on the new pistol.
