    Rock island match vs Springfield loaded

    Ria $700 OTD
    SA loaded $780 OTD


    $80 more worth it?

    IMO yes. RIA is a great gun but doesn't compare to the Springfield Loaded model. That is a great price on the Loaded though.

      At that price the SA is a deal. If it was 100.00 more it would still be better.

      FWIW, I would have bought the loaded model but I just don't like the hammer. I plan to buy another Mil-Spec and send that to SACS for all the stuff I want.

        Good idea as long as you have deep pockets and don't mind waiting...

          Nope, I'll have one to shoot and one to send in. I can wait a few months compared to a few years at the colt shop. And we all know SA is much better then Colt

                SA Loaded has forged frame Vs. RIA cast and better sights.

                I was going to get the SA Loaded, but decided on a Colt XSE.

                    Get the SA loaded. If it's the parkerized w/ night sights, that's a good price.

                      No brainer. SA Loaded for the win.

                        SA as well.

                        Rock were good before they started raising prices since they became so popular. With that price range, SA
