I've decided on a GI .45 for plinking at the range/camping/canoeing/jeeping and have narrowed it down to RIA or Auto Ord. I've read a lot of good stuff about the RIAs here and other places. I've read good reviews about Auto Ord on their site (no surprise there) but have not heard/read much from owners on other sites. I like both for price (I can get the RIA locally for around $360 and the AO for about $100 more). Both seem to handle well, to me anyway. I like the AO Series 80 safety configuration, but don't know if it absolutely necessary for what I'll be using it for.
Any thoughts as to which way to go?
Please don't say go with a Colt, Kimber, SA, etc. I've got my eye out for a good used one from these manufacturers, but they are out of my price range for the moment.
