Found a used full size 1911 Rock Island .45 at a local gun store. There was not a scratch on it and had Hogue grips already on it. It really felt great in the hand.
I’ve read several forums on these guns and have yet to read anything really bad about them so, I took a chance on this one myself. The price was reasonable, $400 out the door.
Wow, what a pistol. Took it to the range 3 times now and have been impressed every time. It can hold a 1” group at 10 yds and a 1.5” group at 25 yds. I was at the “Churt Pit” (a local popular shooting area owned by the County) and was shooting quart size plastic jugs at 75 yds. Had a blast. (no pun intended).
The way I look at this is, I saved $700 and got a really good shooter. All the more money for ammo.
