    Beware the rabbit hole!
    About 18 months ago I agonized over spending the money on an RIA 1911... Today my PT Evo grip for my STI based custom 2011 came in.
    The grip alone cost as much as the Rock Island :)


    We could go run some Rock Island Armory guns against an STI to see how it goes....just to make sure the money was well spent and all.:)

    I put one of these on "wife won't notice slow pay plans". Seriously good pistols as they sit. Imagine it will be better after a TRiP to avon. I'm not a 1911 guy, I'm not a 1911 gu. Ooo look away that one, ooo is that 10mm, oooo what did allen post. Welcome to the slope

    Never used one before but figured if I was going to try one...I do agree with you though, would like to see that one without the RMR

    How has no one snagged the DW Valor in the classifieds yet?!? (...because it's 9mm?)
    Someone please before I can't restrain myself any longer lol...

    Im fresh off a buy. I actually have 3 buys in the past 1.5 months... I am in the planning stage as of now. But yea the 9mm kind of kills it for me. I need a .45. Maybe someday down the road but i like guns in their designed caliber...

    1911 were retooled into 45 for a contract. 38super is original to thre design i believe. 9mm 1911s are a lot of fun.
