My "test fire" review of the Remington 1911 R1

[Trebor]

I got a chance to fondle and shoot the new Remington 1911 R1 last week.

Here's the review I wrote as the "Michigan Firearms Examiner" at Examiner.com.

Thanks for the kind words.

The next "test fire" review will go up Tuesday.

What do you want to see next: The Ruger LCR or S&W M&P Pro in .40?

Thanks for the report.

[grammar nazi] Just a couple of things I noticed in a quick read-through... if you plan to continue your professional writing career, work on "then" vs. "than."

these sights are much easier to see and use then the original military sights

I think it has more to do with my own lack of familiarity with the pistol and the limited time I had to shoot it then with any failing of the pistol itself.

"then/than" fixed thanks.

 

[tekarra]

Thanks for the report. I have been wating for a report for some time.

 

[wditto]

anybody hazard a guess as to who really makes the gun/parts ?

 

[Full Metal Jacket]

^^who knows. there's not doubt, however, that they use MIM or cast parts at the pricepoint.

not an issue, if they're quality made......
