Looks like RRA is making 1911s again

I saw an article in Shooting Times about an RRA 1911. http://www.rockriverarms.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=category.display&category_id=559

they've been 'coming soon' for quite a while now.

I think the concept is pretty awesome, hopefully they'll do a good job w/ it.

Hopefully they'll be nice, but at that price point I'm not confident . I really wish RRA would get back to one of the things they did best....1911s.

They look nice, but I think I will wait till after they are out a while. Made the same mistake with the First R1's. RRA makes pretty good stuff, so I don't think it will take to long to work out the bugs. With a little work they may turn out to be nice pistols.

Polymer 1911s. Sigh.

that in itself isn't a deal killer. I have no issue with STI/SVI

I saw a Wilson KZ-45 polymer gun the other day. I'd never seen one before. Something not quite right.

I take it you didn't know they made 1911s before 2008? They stopped so that they could catch up on their AR business.
