    Ruger 1911 Pistol

    Hi Guys,

    Don't know if this was already posted, but does anyone own or tried the new Ruger 1911 45 ACP pistol.

    Is it any good? Accurate ? I plan to get one to beef up my small collection of 1911's

    Thanks for any info...

    One of the gunshops I visit has one at each of their shop for show and to take orders and I got to handle one, they look great and seem to function great if they shoot as good as they look they are going to put the hurts on some of the other 1911 makers. I would consider getting one for the price under $700 at this gun shop.

    Very nice looking pistol in a very crowded market. It maybe time for me to pony up and buy another 1911. Ruger quality is something we should be able to take for granted.

    Its been months since I bought the book, "How to scam people online". It still has not arrived yet!

    Could'nt read the review, after the first two paragraphs I found myself wanting to smack the writer up side the head. His attempt at humor was a poor attempt.

    I did not find the Truth about Guns review very useful.

    Weak review. The guy was more concerned about his self-admired, obnoxious sense of humor than actually reviewing the gun.

    Can't wait till mine arrives.
    scrap, smelt, cast, lube, load, shoot. repeat.
