Ruger SR1911 6739 Complete Specs and Full Gun Specifications

Very Happy

Great Ruger quality and it looks and feels amazing. I bought this gun a year ago and have had absolutely no issues. I get that feeling you get when you see a muscle car every time I pick it up.

Ruger SR1911 10mm

This is my first RUGER pistol I have bought. This is an outstanding firearm. The fit and finish is top notch. This pistol has the best trigger I have ever felt in a 1911 style pistol. RUGER claims a 4.3 pound trigger pull. I will say that is dead on. Smoo

Excellent fit and workmanship

I purchased a model 6700 (full size 45) when they were first introduced because it was one of the few 1911 style pistols out there that was traditional. No recoil spring guide and no front slide serrations. These are personal preferences. The pistol was t

Mediocre quality

I was expecting better. Maybe I should not have. My other 1911 is the SA Mil Spec. Both are priced much better than the high end models. The trigger is not smooth, it clicks twice before the hammer fall. And after 100 rounds, the firing pin spring is worn

Lightweight Lemon?

Bought the LW Commander (6711) on 11/17/17. Folks at the gun counter were nice enough to let me examine several that were in the box. Judging by the test fired casings, all were manufactured early to mid 2015. I researched this model extensively and have

Ruger SR1911 10mm

I bought the SR1911 10mm when they first came out back in June of this year. I will have to say that this is one of my favorite handguns that I own (and I own a few). I added a tritium front night sight and the dark wood grips with Ruger logo medallion al

Great shooting and great looking firearm

Bought this pistol and instantly wondered why I had waited so long. Great feel, extremely accurate, recoil is smooth but firm, not snappy or violent. I've put 200 rounds through it so far and it just feels better every shot. Very nice pistol for a great p

Great 1911

This was my first 1911. What a great gun ! You just can't miss with this and Ruger did a fine job. I loved the 1911 platform so much I went out and spent twice as much for a Kimber. The Ruger is a better gun, flat out. I have not had one issue with mine a

Excellent shooter

I have put ~250 rounds of 230 grain FMJ ammo through the Ruger. It has performed flawlessly even though it is still in what would be considered the break in period for a 1911 pattern pistol. I has shown good accuracy in my just returned to shooting hands.

Great Firearm

I purchased the SR1911 Commander, CT Laser Grips in Stainless Steel, which I think is a Cabela's exclusive. Like most 1911's, it is easy to use. I tried several different types of ammo off the shelf, and had no FTF or FTE.

A superb choice!

I carried a 1911 for a living in the Army, and wanted one for old times sake. The SR1911 has all of the modern updates while still looking and feeling like the service piece I remember. The fit and finish are top notch for the price level (well, any price

First handgun

This was my first ever handgun purchase. Great trigger. I have shot 200 rounds through it in the first week of ownership. No malfunctions to date. Just learned how to shoot a pistol. All shots at 50 feet were in the black right out of the box using Winche

Light, Functional, Overall Very Nice

Slightly loose fitted slide, that and the integral feed ramp on the barrel may be how this pistol feeds many different shapes of bullets, right out of the box. The trigger has a little drag, and could use a little hand fitting, but for the price I expecte

Awesome

I'm lucky to have the new 9mm lightweight commander and it's proven to be a very accurate and reliable gun. Perhaps the best choice of 1911 9mm on the market. It rivals my Shield 9 and also my Range Officer 9mm both of which are excellent and dependable g

Ruger comes through again

I bought my SR1911 when they first come out and I couldn't be any happier.I put a little over 1200 rounds through so far and no issues whatsoever.No jams or heavy fouling but, the trigger (skeletonized),has a wee bit of play (side to side) A little heavie

Excellent model 1911

Excellent Model 1911. Make sure to OIL it before your first time shooting it. Look, feel, performance is top notched. Balanced and smooth. My 12yr old son preferred it over all others.

One of the best

I bought this gun just because I wanted a 1911. It was one of the best purchases I have ever made. This is my go to pistol when I am hunting or backpacking in the mountains. I love how accurate it was out of the box. It is very comfortable to shoot and I

Great gun

Have several different autos. But this one out shoots all of them. Trigger is light and balance is great. 500 rounds thru it no problems. My son bought one and he feels the same.

Great Purchase

This gun is awesome. From my first shot I fell in love with this gun. Great Gun !

Great pistol

I just purchased this 1911 this week and have shot it twice at the range. This is simply an outstanding pistol! One of the best guns I have shot (and I own 6 others).Very accurate, nice trigger pull and solid grip.

Nothing special

Without a doubt, the roughest 1911 I've ever owned. Poor trigger, and poor slide to frame fit. You get what you pay for. Never again.

It's a Ruger - It Works

Just got the SR1911 Commander as a birthday present a couple of weeks ago. I took it apart and cleaned & lubed it before going to the range. Slide-to-frame fit is tight, like the barrel-to-bushing fit. Once at the range, I had a couple of FTF's with m

great 1911!

Nice fit and finish, nice balance, i love this pistol!

Excellent pistol

I purchased the SR 1911 lwt commander. After breaking it in, where there were no misfires, I took the pistol to the range. I ran through a qualification course and shot a 96 %. The

Really Nice 1911

I have owned mine since they first introduced this gun to the market. Solid feel and very accurate. Have shot at least 300 rounds through it with absolutely no problems at all. Plus with it being stainless it's very easy to clean especially if your shooti

My first pistol -- I couldn't have chosen better!

I field stripped my SR1911, cleaned and oiled it before firing my firs box of 50 rounds, not a single issue. I pull the trigger and it goes bang!Out of the box the slide was so stiff and tight that when new I had to cock the hammer to rack the slide. Afte

Great 1911 purchase

Being a 1911 fan, been looking around for sometime for a 1911 that will meet my budget limitations. SR911 CMD turned out to be a great purchase. No issues encountered after 450 rds. Shots are a little lower to the left though (or it could be me), but grou

Great FireArm

Picked this up last week from Bass Pro, great firearm. I ran a box of ammo through it the first day, and had a few mis-loads.

Excellent weapon

Bought my SR1911 two weeks ago.

Great Value in a 1911

Quality equal to 1911's priced $200-300 more. Great looking in matte stainless, three dot sights are a pleasure to use (even with my progressive lenses). Typical Ruger attention to detail including a massive action lock.

A great 45

My son and I each purchased this pistol so that we could shoot together. After familiarizing myself with this weapon, (a bit different than my 9mm Beretta) we went out to the range and fired off a hundred rounds without any hangups or miss fires. This pis

Excellent 1911 Model

Straight shooter right out of the box. Feels great in the hand. All the controls are in good locations and are easy to use. 100% American made! The recoil works well with the all steel frame making target accusation very easy (my wife even commented that

I now have 2

RUGER HIT A HOMERUN!!

1911 HP

Ruger and Cabelas pulled it off with this exclusive high polished 1911. Smooth, sexy and a functional work of art. My favorite gun so far and approximently 400 rounds thru it and not one issue. I enjoy this gun so much I carry it at times for my concealed

Excellent Shooter

I purchased the CMD, as i already have a 5inch 1911. I was highly impressed with the feel, handling and accuracy of this pistol. Recoil is well managed, which allows for quicker follow up shots. I have used it as a carry pistol, but it is a little on the

Excellent 1911

First let me start by saying yes, I am a female and I am a die hard 1911 fan. I found this one and decided to add it to my existing collection of 1911s (everything ranging from a highly customized Officer model, a National Match, XSE (the National Match a

Best 1911 bang for buck!

I was so impressed with both the "Government" & the "Commander" that I bought a pair of them! I took the full size gun to a PD reserve academy qualification shoot after only putting 50 rounds through it. I ordinarily would not have

Awesome 1911!!

Just like all the other reviews, this is a great 1911. Mine is the commander; it feels great in your hands, looks amazing, and it operates very well. I have about 200 rounds through it without a hiccup. There is a tremendous amount of value in this firear

Excellent Purchase

Great purchase! After years of contemplating another sidearm purchase, I knew I wanted a 1911. Did some more research, and short of spending a lot more money, I decided on this item. American made, bushing and barrel machined out of the same billet, featu

reliable, dependable, police duty worthy

Great gun right out of the box. This gun is now my police duty weapon, I'm a Reserve Officer. I have L.E. qualified twice with this weapon, once on an outdoor range picking up dirty ammo off the ground after tactical shooting drills and reloading, no malf

awesome

nice shoot... spot on aim right out of box... no miss fires or FTFs spent 400 rounds through cleaning after 100 or so. nothing like it

Beautiful Gun!

The price was right for this 1911. I own several other Ruger firearms, so I trusted the quality of theirs. This is a really nice looking gun with all of the features of the more expensive brands. I have put about 400 rounds of different ammo through it. I

SR1911 5" Barrel

This is a great version of a 1911 pistol. This gun will make you shoot good, as it is really accurate but will tell you what you are doing wrong. Feedback on poor trigger control is fantastic. Great gun for experienced collector or newbie to large caliber

best for the price

Everything about his gun is great 2" groups right out of box at 25 yards 200 rounds from 185 grns to 230 grns brass to the cheapest steel case not one hickup only problem i had was to wait six months to get it but well worth the wait

Execellent 1911

Purchased the SR1911 CMD on 11-Aug-2013. Went home and field stripped, cleaned and lubed. Wife and I headed for the range where we shot 100 rounds in about 20 minutes and the barrel was smoking hot. No problems. Recoil is softer than we thought it would b

Ruger SR-1911 Full Size

This gun is excellent! Reliable and fun to shoot. You will not regret buying this. Plus, Ruger stands behind their product.

Just picked one up

I just bought a Commander model. Took it to the range and can't believe how accurate this gun is. The 1st fired bullet in the case that Ruger ships with every gun was from 10 days ago. This gun was just made. If you can find one buy it. You won't be sorry

No regrets

I absolutely LOVE this gun. I have a Heckler & Koch HK45 that costs $400 more and I prefer to shoot this .45ACP. Fit and finish is perfect after having inspected it down to individual parts. It shoots as well as 1911 competition guns I've shot like a

soon to be another classic from ruger

fantastic 1911 first shot ever 1 inch right and even with the bulls eye off hand at 20 yards kept 5 shots inside 6 inch circle I am not a pistol shooter at all so for me this is very good I can only imagine what someone who is a good pistol shooter can do

You have GOT to buy one

Started reading about this gun a couple of weeks ago and put it on my "bucket list"...Yesterday I happened to be down at Cabela's and looked down and there she was...they only had three in stock, now they only have two. Took it out to the range

Love this 1911!

I've had the SR1911 for almost a year. I bought it because I wanted a 1911 in my collection - and has become my favorite to shoot. This gun is well balance, perfect to hold, and is very accurate. The trigger is light, crisp, and breaks clean. No failure t

1911 commander

I bought this at cabelas earlier this year (2013) so i haven't had it long. I've put 200 rnds through it with no issues. Easy to clean and disassemble.

One heck of a 1911!

I have fired 2,000 rounds through my SR1911 and have had ZERO failures of any kind. Extremely well made and an incredible price.

Great Pistol

purchased this gun right before christmas, excellent shooting pistol, groups at 2"- at 30 yds, Smooth Easy pull trigger, caught me off gaurd the first time i shot it. Thinking of purchasing another for the other hip

Ruger has a winner!!!! SR1911

I am an avided shooter of handguns and shoot regularly in IDPA matches. The Ruger SR1911 is one of the best 1911 that I have put my hands on and I am comparing it to pistols like STI and Wilson Combat which are considered among the top of the line 1911's.

I am in love with this pistol

This is a fantastic pistol. I'm certainly no Annie Oakley, but I was shooting 2 inch groups at 45 feet the first time I took it out. We shot 200 rounds of reloads through it, and didn't have a hint of a problem cycling. The trigger is smooth and light. Th

Lucky stars

I thank my lucky stars that I got this gun before everyone found out about it. I've had Colt series 70 1911s and this beats it hands downs. If you can find one, get it before the price goes up. And it will go up when the word gets out.

Love at first sight

My brother had been wanting one since Ruger starting making the 1911s. Hard to find. He FINALLY got it. He loves it. But-he may not be keeping it for long. I was always a rifle person myself till I saw it. She's pretty in the stainless steel and it fits m

Entry level 1911...my butt!

First off, Cabela's was great. I ordered this gun through their central office. I was told at that time that there was only 3 in their entire system. But less than 7 days later, it was in Tulalip. Took it to the range with some dreadfully low quality 45 p

The pistol you could have spent $2,000 fixing up!

I have a Colt M-1911 A1 that I spent at least an additional $1k improving the fit, trigger and function, and it still does not shoot as well as the out-of-the-box Ruger 1911.The first day with the Ruger 1911 I shot, free handed, a 7-round group of 1.5 inc

Damm Fine Gun

Absolutely love this gun, well spent money.

Excellent Purchase

Got mine three days ago. I had been waiting on this pistol for about 3 months. Ran 100 rounds through it and was just as happy as could be. No jams no misfires. Ruger can be proud of this piece of work. Excellent craftsmanship.

Great Gun

I've had my SR1911 since July but I wanted to wait til I had put more rounds through it to write a review. Over 800rds now and only 2 FTFs both from the same after market ten round mag. Never had a feed or ejection problem with the stock mags or any other

The most bang for your buck!

I had been looking for a good 1911 for a long time but most of them were just too expensive for what I wanted. Then along came the SR1911 which has far exceded my expectations! I have put over 500 rounds thru mine with no problems what so ever! I did'nt e

Love This Gun!

I have been searching for the SR 1911 for about a year. The local shops in my area had been telling me that the wait list is so long not to bother or some of the shops just said they don't have the gun. I was very surprised to get a call from Cabelas that

What a Gun!

Just got it yesterday, but due to weather, just got out today and put 100 rounds downrange. I know it's not much, but I was really surprised with shooting comfort and accuracy. Recoil was minimal, allowing for superb, controlled rapid fire groupings. Blew

RUGER SR1911 - SIMPLY AMAZING!

I purchased an SR1911 from Cabela's last month. To say I love this gun would be an understatement. I LOVE EVERTYTHING ABOUT THIS GUN. It has a great feel, a great trigger pull and is truly a pleasure to shoot. It exudes quality and is a very elegant expre

Sweet shooting 1911 .45 ACP

Like everyone else waited for this pistol. Out of the box with little preperation I was amazed at the handling and accuracy. I by no means am a marksman but this Ruger made me look pretty good.. Accuracy at 15-25 yards 10-20 grouped within 4-6 inches; Cou

Exactly what I was looking for...

After 3-weeks of being number one on the waiting list, my Ruger SR1911 came in. During those 3-weeks I kept looking at all of the American made 1911's and came really close to picking up a Springfield 'Loaded' model in stainless. I compared this Ruger wit

The best of the best 1911's

I bought mine last May (May 2011) I wanted to wait and get it out on the dance floor before reviewing it.

Ruger 1911

I have been doing some research on buying a entry level 1911 and kept running into this ruger, how reliable it is, the sexiness factor is out the roof, I'm not a experienced shooter by anymeans, but this gun can make anybody a good shot. Unless you want a

Finest 1911 I Ever Owned

While it took me several months to find one in stock, now that I have it, I have to say that it is unquestionably the finest 1911 that I have ever owned. It is 100% American made.

Rugar has it right!

This is a must for the collection! The fit the finish is beautiful. Accuracy is unbelievable. Series 70 slide with the Titanium firing pin. Novak sights, adjustable trigger. I hope they come out with a commander or a compact. You will not find a 1911 of t

Quality and Craftsmanship

This is the most accurate production manufactured semi-auto I own. Well balanced and comfortable with a very smooth action. No problems cycling any ammo I used. It's also a beauty to look at!

Ruger Hits It Our of the Park

Excellent workmanship. 300 rounds out of the box without a solo hiccup. Accurate beyond all expectations. Great balance with a trigger as smooth as silk. Compares and or exceeds 1911s that come with a heftier price tag. 3 1/2 months for delivery, but was

Highly Recommended!

I purchased this 1911 a couple of weeks ago. I am highly impressed with the quality and accuracy from this Ruger. It shoots very straight, and after about 600 rounds, no FTF's or FTE's from bulk ammo. The salesman at the Buda location was extremely helpfu

Great 1911

I purchased a Ruger SR1911 from Cabelas in Kearney, NE. What an awesome firearm. This is my 5th 1911 from various manufacturers and this one stands at the top of the list. The fit and function is superb. It has most of the features that I want/like in a 1

Excellent 1911

I looked at a number of makes, models, and price ranges but continued to be impressed with the great reviews this new offering from Ruger was receiving. As many of you already know, Ruger has been manufacturing 1911 frames and component parts for a number
