Excellent weapon

My 2nd pistol behind my Berretta but this is my go to weapon as accuracy and dependability is just as important as comfort in my hand. I've put about 800 rounds thru this pistol without any problems at all. LOVE IT.

A true value of a FireArm. 1911 ~ 2014

I am a gunsmith, and I enjoy working on guns. The 1911 is the oldest and most desirable ever made. The R1 series is the most reliable and reasonable price you can buy today... I have the R1 S/S model, great gun. I have used 1911s for over 50 years. This R

This is the best feeling 1911 I have came across in a long time. I had my heart set on another brand going by looks. When I got ready to buy, I went to the gun store and started checking out the .45's. They didn't have the one I wanted in stock
