are cast in Brazil, then are shipped to the USA and are hand-fitted and assembled by a single gunsmith. its 500 bucks cheaper then a colt. Not yet.

What JMB would make of the truncated legal disclaimer Read instruction manual before using firearm engraved underneath the 5-inch barrel? Here. Thats why the Ruger 1911 got a big meh from me. Great feel, Great weight, low recoil. And why not? Safe shooting to all. problem I found to be was the cheap ammo. Ruger's website notes that the SR1911 Officers Model is compatible with standard 1911 after-market parts. I read alot of positive reviews of the SR1911 and spoke to a guy who owned one. This handgun has a fiber optic front sight and an adjustable rear. Just because I use them in all my 1911s for muzzle flip. I have one of these on lay away and cant wait to see how my white ass shoots it.
