That's a great deal. I paid $750 plus tax and DROS for mine.

RUGER SR1911

$699 seems like a great price. I've heard that they've been selling on here for way above that since they're so hard to get. There's one for sale local to me in WA for $700 and it's used, so I'd say you've done well. I'd buy the $700 one today and put a couple rounds through it then sell it to you CA fools if the price gouging was still going on

The SR1911 were under $700 when they were new. I've seen them for $629. Then a few video reviews hit the internet (like Hicock45's) and demand went up along with prices. Looks like things are cooling back down.
FYI, it is not a true-to-spec 1911 so parts compatibility is not 100%.Comment

The money has already been spent, so why even ask the question? Why not set a day to meet at the range and put some ammo through it? That's the best way to celebrate the addition of a new firearm.Benefactor Life Member, National Rifle Association

I know the plunger tube is part of the frame, but that is the only difference I know of off the top of my head. I assumed it was a pretty standard 1911 otherwise.Comment

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

Either way to get one in CA, SSE at that price is a very good deal IMO. Right place at the right time. I'm sure he could sell it for at least what he paid here in CA if he winds up not liking it. Off-list guns are always sought after here in this state. Good luck!NRA & CRPA member

There are a lot more on GunBroker these days and the prices are coming back down for those litings...So I do think Ruger is catching up.I heard these pistols are hard to find new in free states, much less goofy CA. Maybe Ruger is caught up on production?

I will have to call DAS and check on the deposit I have had with them for a while now...

Here in Louisiana I've seen 4 brand new at stores/gun shops within a week of each other. Plus several vendors online. Just gotta keep your eyes open.I heard these pistols are hard to find new in free states, much less goofy CA. Maybe Ruger is caught up on production?

Plenty of people around here will pay a hell of a lot more than that... IF we could find one.
If he doesn't like it shoot me a PM.

Never say never, but as it sells now the SR1911 won't be rostered. No mag disco, no infernel lock (or is it an LCI? I can never remember) and no 80 series type firing pin block. Ruger has no plans I've heard of to introduce a CA compliant model, either. Why would they?
PPT or SSE is the only way (I believe) to get one."He is your friend, your partner, your defender, your dog.
