1)Any dealers out there know when RIA will be shipping their new railed .45 ?
This is the new 6", but the one im interested in is the Gov. model with a full length dust cover which is the 2nd picture that people got to shoot at shot show media day.(rumor is April/may)
2)Anybody got any info such as price ? I did notice that the long slide has a bushing-less barrel as well as a full length guide rod wonder if that will carry into some of there other models. I like my mil spec i bought last year, especially the price so ill be looking to use this as another platform to improve on (like my current one, mostly wilson combat and fusion parts now).


I know there are a bunch more higher end 1911s, i would love a nighthawk grp, springfield operator or FBI loaded, pretty much any WC, but like most people money dictates. I built my RIA for considerably ($150+) less than the price of a custom 2 with much better quality parts tailored to my liking, if the price has gone up exponentially on these, ill probably just get a frame kit and build something (easier on the wallet buying a few parts here and there). Got most of the info from M1911.org, so i feel its pretty credible. If anybody was able to shoot it at media day, impressions would be cool
