I have shot a friends Taurus 1911 and I was surprised with the trigger. Remington needs to take some advice from Taurus in reference to the trigger. I don't know if the Taurus is a Series 70 or 80 but I know the R1 is an 80 and the Ruger is a 70. All of the Rock Island and Citadels I own are a series 70 and seem to have a better trigger than the R1.
A few less pieces causing resistance to get the sear to release the hammer.
I have "Had" a few 80 series but no more.
