hammerforged Posted July 23, 2010 Report Share Posted July 23, 2010 I have a chance to get my hands on a Rock Island Armory 1911 but don't know anything about them. Anyone have any experience with them? Good - Bad? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lil hunter Posted July 23, 2010 Report Share Posted July 23, 2010 I was readin about them quite a bit the past couple days. Seems they aren't really common, but everyone that has one is happy with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snapper Posted July 25, 2010 Report Share Posted July 25, 2010 Never shot one...but the one I handled seemed well built...for the price, didn't seem like a bad gun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcgyverit Posted July 30, 2010 Report Share Posted July 30, 2010 I have had one for about 2 years now. Bought it because they were a cheap introduction to 1911's. I tinker with it, polishing it here and there, swapping out some parts etc. as far as shooting goes, fairly reliable with some early on FTfeed issues, but found i needed better cleaning/polishing of some of the parts. now it shoot real nice.
