I don't own it anymore. I ran great though. It's a wide body and uses Para P14 mags.

Yeah, this is Cocked and Locked's fault.

It amazingly is very tight, very accurate, shoots to POA, and has a great trigger. I'm going to put it on a scale later this week, but it can't be over 3#s.
Thinking hard about upgrading the sights though.
 
RIAs are great! Here's a pic of my twins... a Tactical 45 and a 38 super that I converted to 9mm, new trigger group, bt safety, duracoated, etc.

Had a milspc RIA for about a year. Runs great. Count me satisfied. Seems some have quality issues that are routinely corrected by the manufacturer.
 
What's not to like? I pictured my two nickel .38 Supers earlier in this thread. Initially, I had one nickel and one parkerized .38 Super. The parkerized one developed some problems.

RIA replaced my park'd one free of charge. I couldn't believe it when they asked me if I wanted the replacement to be park'd also, or did I want another nickel one instead ! I opted for the nickel so I would have a matched pair...both work great!

My latest RIA addition is this .45 ACP Compact...it works great as well!

There are some Great looking RIA's here. I've noticed a few sight upgrades. How hard is it to put a set of Novak Tritiums on a RIA Tactical?

The tactical has a machined slide that will accept upgraded sights,but the tactical comes with better sights than the A1. The A1 has the little GI type sights and need some machining done to the slide for aftermarket type sights.
