Thinking about getting a RIA 45 but heard they are tough to break down for cleaning. Any comments or exiperences? What about a ATI 45 for ease of cleaning? Thanks for any info.
My ria 9mm tac is my easiest 1911 to clean.
I am a lay person for sure, and this is one of the big reasons I love the 70 series 1911's. I am able to get in there and really clean out the inside of the slide as well as change strker springs. I prefer to have the satisfaction of doing things myself if at all possible.Any lay person can COMPLETELY disassemble a 1911 (series 70).
With M1911s that use a FLGR, you will need to one more tool to disassemble, it's called a paper clip.
