Congrats! I've heard a lot of good things about RIA, especially their customer service.
I'm thinking of getting a compact tactical model myself. Enjoy the gun! |

I was looking at one at a local shop today. They were asking $405 for it. The only thing I don't like are the smooth grips. The guys there told me RIA also made either the Auto Ordnance or the High Standard, can't remember which.
