Is Rugar a Chinese knockoff of Ruger?

Now come on give a break.....I'm a rookie on this forum. OK RugEr. Looks like I'm going to have to change my user name now. Man.... You guys are tough. I always seem to misspell it. No I'm not Chinese that's why I want an All American 1911. Screwed up my first post. Thanks for making me painfully aware of my stupidity.

Welcome to INGO!

Far as availability goes, I'm sure if you put your location somebody will be able to point you towards a shop that has one or can order one for you.

Here's a link to the review I did when I purchased mine

Welcome to ingo.

The R1911 or whatever Ruger is calling them have been making their way onto store shelves already.

Now from what I've heard, they don't last for more than a few moments in the store before being sold, so you have to be lucky to catch one.

Or maybe you can special order one from your favorite local dealer. But expect to wait for a long time.

Thanks Mr.Lubie. I saw your post when you were trying to sell yours and got real excited until I saw that you posted that back in May. I have three dealers looking for me but they won't take my money until they are sure they can get the gun. Davidisons has them all allocated. How did you like yours?

 

[Rugarlover]

Thanks LEaSH,
That's where I am now but they can't even get a wholesale commitment. They won't even let me lock one down with the full asking price. I live in La Porte and I think I've checked all around here...... I've started searching Indy.

 

[Rugarlover]

i just looked at your review thanks

Absolutely loved it and if it wasn't for bills and a family vacation I would still have it.Soon as the ol lady says the bank account can afford another gun it will more then likely be the SR1911 and this time for keeps

Are they only going to be brushed stainless? Does anyone see them blued?

I thought one of the prototypes were a deep blue.

I'd like a SR1911, but I probably would never carry it, or have it holstered. Stainless is nice, but I'd prefer the traditional finish, a grey parkerize even, but I know they won't do that.

I thought it was a Japanese reference to a certain Senator from Indiana. They just can't pronounce the "L."

All joking aside, I haven't seen any yet. If I did, I'd throw it on my credit card.

We have had 3 of them in the shop ....they lasted about an hour .

Very nice 1911 , Dont know how they shoot , but I do know I want one .

If they are like any other new guns , wait about a year they will be everywhere .

Most of the new model guns we get in ( kimber solo , LC9 , PMR30 ,Ruger1911) never make it to the shelve .
Always a customer standing in the store that will see us getting ready to put it on the shelve and they will buy it before it makes it .

I hunted many places for one, even left my name, phone and email. I gave up and bought another Springfield. I sure wish that Ruger's production/distribution was up to the same speed as their marketing/sales promo department.

If they are a cast frame 1911 I would pass, which I bet they are.

Funny thing is the Chinese 1911's (norinco) were forged.

 

[Fordtough25]

They do look nice for sure but I love my Springfield and old Colt. I shot a Norinco once, quite nice! I haven't seen a Ruger 1911 in my local shops lately.

Have you called Cabelas in Hammond? Kempf in Michigan City might be able to help, or one of the Blythe's shops. You could always try Midwest in Mishawaka too.

 

[Mad Man]

Midwest had one a few weeks back. Went and played touchy feely with it but they wouldn't budge on MSRP!!! Cabelas no, Bass Pro no, Big R no, not sure about Kemps as I will not step foot in there! Good luck.

OP...you might want to get your name changed or something to show that you are a Ruger fan, and not a Rugar one

 

[Rugarlover]

Hi LEaSH, I think Ruger will have several options worked into their 1911 line going forward. The SR 1911 is their first shot (no pun intended) at the 1911 design.
