RIA 1911 vs others

They have a lifetime warranty. If you have any problems you can send it in. I wouldn't worry too much about it.

You could very well spend 200 dollars more and get a 1911 with problems.

I own a ria gi 1911, its great.

If you're roster exempt get the Rock.

If you're not roster exempt then the state of California has made the choice for you.

Great gun!

spend the extra $200 and get the better quality gun, you will be glad you did it

Both are reliable guns. Are there chances that you get a bad one out of the box? Yes. But people have bought 2K and 3K guns that had problems and same goes for Toyota Camry and Honda Accord.
Oh, forget about mim stories. There are more mim parts in the car you drive in on the crazy freeways and the airplanes you fly in with no health hazards or malfunctions.

Both RIA and SA have great customer service and warranties. So, just in a very very remote chance that you get a lemon out of the box (same as a new car or less), they will fix it for you.

If you are going to war and this is to be your back up gun, shoot 2 or 300 rounds with it before deployment. If it worked, clean and lube it, and it will go bang again when you need it to.

Oh, and in before the glock boys chime in and suggest a g19.

Not exempt, but Christmas is coming... Santa lives out of state




Not going to war, unless the libs come for it... just going to be range gun

I’ve got a RIA tactical 45 and 9mm. Both run like crack whores. I would buy another RIA in a heartbeat.

Spend the extra and get an American made 1911. RIA are fine but you will just end up wanting something better so bite the bullet and get the Springer.

the USMC uses Springfield Armory for their MEUSOC M1911, it must be a decent quality firearm if the Marines uses SA or uppers to build them.

I highly doubt the USMC would use a lower end RIA mfg in the Philippines

Both RIA and Springfield have MIM parts
