I recently bought a Remington 1911 RS1, and I absolutely love it. I think they are relatively new to the 1911 scene, but I am very happy so far.

I have a Colt 1991A1 that is an outstanding pistol. Has run perfect since I got it in 2001. I bought a RIA government once for a good price, and it was a hunk of junk. Sharp edges everywhere, ammo picky, magazine picky, and it beat itself when you shot it. I had to spend a lot of time polishing and adding some new springs to get it to run correctly. I have heard a lot of folks tell me they love theirs, but I would never own another.

Stop buying guns for looks and get a glock.

Ria is solid, although I do agree about those sharp edges.
Buy a real gun and realize Glocks suck.

I've shot enough plastic guns with crappy triggers.. 1911 is the only way to go for a full or mid-sized pistol. yeeeeaaaahhhhh... unless you want modern ammo capacity, modern penetration and materials imo a 1911 is a toy, not a legit battle pistol in this day and age, and oh it doesn't have double action capability so you have to carry it cocked an locked if you actually want to be ready in bad situation... 17 rounds of 9mm in my pistol... with a great single action trigger and a solid double action. oh and all metal... 1911 is a piece of time, they are great, but I'm not carrying it as my only option

And mine holds 16 rounds of .40 in a factory mag, launching a 180grn projectile at 1000fps. I keep it cocked and locked, because that's how it was built to be shot.

Put in a custom order for an INFINITY and just put money back. At a 14-16 month wait period you will be able to afford one. The quality and accuracy on them are second to none

1911 is a piece of time, they are great, but I'm not carrying it as my only option I have a 9mm, .357 and a 1911 .45. I'll go to battle with that 1911 .45 all day long.
