ive narrowed it down to these two guns for my first 1911..its gonna kinda depend on price, if i can get a good deal on one or the other that will be my choice...
please help me out and post your prices and name of g.s. wanna see what the prices are going for
Though the RO is nice the Ruger gets my vote. That looks to be my first 1911 too when I find one. From what I hear Ruger's investment casting is awesome and they have been casting frames for other manufacturers for years. Early model issues may be a consideration, but Ruger's history tells me to go with them. I never thought I;d say that. Ruger styling has always pushed me away, but they are reliable as hell. Just a guess here but they couldn't possibly screw up a 1911 could they?
I love my RO and it's perfect for what I use it for. I can' imagine going wrong with a Ruger and they have the looks going on as well with their new 1911. I bought my RO for $750. Good luck to you.
