Who here in SoCal has an SR1911? Where in SoCal did you buy it from? And (if you don't mind sharing) how much was it otd with sse/dros/ffl fees/etc.? Thanks!

DAS has had them on order with deposits for 5-7 months now...

I wonder why its taking so long seeing that enthusiasts in other states have had them for a while now? Is it a DAS problem or a Ruger problem?Miles to go before I sleepComment

Ruger is backordered like 80k units....(or that's the word on the street)
More production capacity coming on line but it will be a while to catch up....
If money in not an issue just order one from gunbroker and SSE...otherwise start waiting.Last edited by keenkeen; 01-20-2012, 6:34 PM."But far more numerous was the herd of such, Who think too little and who talk too much." -John DrydenComment

proforce has a bunch of them in stock........ You can't buy one unless you are a LEO (roster exempt)Any gun owner who does not support the NRA is a freeloader.

Don't feel bad, I cant get them here and we don't even have a roster.
I didn't even get to lay eyes on one at a gun store until a month after it was released, and when I did see it the only 1 the store had -a Sioux Falls SD Cabellas -was a non-sellable display . They were taking deposits on a waiting list,full payment upfront with a retail price of $899 IIRC and estimated delivery date unknown.
Rumor has it that Ruger sold through the entire 2011 production run within 60 days of release, and I have little reason to doubt the accuracy of that statement.
Soon enough supply will catch up with demand and people can start seeing them in stores, but until then I would sit back and watch the gunbroker auctions with some popcorn. One notable sale I spotted when they first came out had a bid go up to $1500 for a NIB example.The more prohibitions you have, the less virtuous people will be.

Up here in San Jose, Metal Dog Tactical will charge.. $100 sse, $40 transfer fee, $25 dros, and taxes on the pistol. The trick here to find a seller (out of state) that is willing to ship to CA. I found a couple sellers on gunsamerica..emailed them to see if theyre willing to ship it to an FFL07, but two of them have turned me down already.Last edited by sundayduffer; 01-20-2012, 7:52 PM.Comment

still waiting for mine from DAS. Also, CYcWidIt or whatever should be showing up soon to crap on the sr1911 real soonComment

I've had one in my hand but didn't get to shoot it. It was very nice and if Ruger ever gets it on the roster (and makes enough) I'll add one to my 1911 collection for sure.Sent from free America otherwise known as Utah.Comment

I am going to break my 'no new guns on 2012' pledge to get this bad boy. The limited availability and fact that everyone.is fawning over it makes the desire to grab one unbearable!Comment

Yes you can have 2 C&R 03 FFL's; 1 in California and 1 in a different state.
