    Looking at one at my dealer... was wondering how it shoots. Looks like a beauty! Not sure on the regular or the enhanced. Which did you shoot?

    Ive seen the Stainless R1 (GI style) at my local gunshop. But I dont think it was that much. I love stainless 1911's, but I think the standard R1 looks better in blued IMHO. It has more of an old school look to it that way.

    I have shot Buff7mm's Enhanced R1. They do shoot very well.

    You can't compare a Glock to a 1911. Completely different platforms. Both have their pros and cons.

    I really like my R1's. I have an enhanced and a limited two tone. I am thinking about getting the one with the threaded as well.

    Haven't tryed the Remington yet. But I do prefer the 1911 platform.
    Just seems to fit me better.
    X2 I handled a sig 220 today that I liked but the 1911s give me the warm and fuzzies. I can't find anything to fit like that. Blocks have the low profile slide that helps but I just don't feel the settled in feeling.

    I am waiting on MSP for paperwork on a FNH 9 that I ordered on 1/19. Hoping that will come anyday now. Just got the call yesterday that my Stainless Reminton 1911 R1 Enhanced with a black grip was in. Can't submit paperwork till 19th!:sad20: Really looking forward to shooting that 1911. And it loooks purdy too!
