the 1911a1

from the second i put hands on a 45 auto to this very second ,i say there has never been a better handgun . none even close! in vn i carried a remington rand . which i still have to this day. i admit i've pretty much retired it but it's had better then 75k rounds through it. but if need be i would not hesitate to feed more through it. i now use a ria 45 1911a1. i payed 435.00 for it. i'm posting this thread for all the colt, kimber and other brand name and custom people. i have owned this 45 for less then 6 months and have fed more then 3000 rds ,of assorted ammo through it. noooo jams nooo misfires, noooo nothing but perfection. i trust my family's protection with it. the only change i made was to sand down the grips as they were just a bit to thick for my gun hand {due to a wound } recieved in vn. the ria 45 is every bit as good as any. and as far as i'm concerned better then most

I've had a 1991-A1 for 14 years and love it! Never had any probems or missfires with it. I just bought a XD 45 service which I haven't fired yet. I'm excited to see how it compares

I just added another 1911 to my .45 collection on Saturday, a Springfield Mil-Spec. It goes great with my Springfield Loaded and my XD-45.

This thread was a repost that no one posted on until one of the guys posted on it today. I ripped Frank in the other thread for downing Colt, Kimber and the other finer 1911 makers just because he got a RIA.

Yeah, kind of an odd post for a guy with only 3 posts on a XD based forum. Oh well.

I think I will stick my TRP. I am sure Laz isn't too worried about his fine decision either.
