Normally, I'd spend a couple hours using the search function. But I just don't have the time. I've had my eyes on a 70 series colt repro for a while now. But recent events have put that idea on hold. I may have a chance to pick up a (nickle plated unfortunately)RIA, however. I read in a recent thread that there is some difference in the Not a half cock notch between the RIA and JMB's design. Can someone please explain this - and what it means - in layman's terms? Any other differences?
Also, would you trust your life to a RIA 1911? Yes, I know a $3k Wilson is better. That's not an option for me. I'd rather this not turn into a, "Get a Colt/Springer/etc." kind of thread. It'd be a trade for my SP101. Just looking for a couple more rounds and a single action trigger for my nightstand / car gun.
Real world opinions only please. If you've never owned / shot one, I don't really care that you think they're trash. Unless, of course, you're also willing to trade your Valor for my SP101
Thanks in advance guys & gals!
