Celebrated 3/29/2011 the right way!
I picked up an RIA M1911A1 today, I know it's a cheaper 1911, but I gotta start somewhere!
I now have a Sig 1911C3 and this one.....on my way!
Anybody else pick up a 1911 on the anniversary date?
Any thoughts on this gun? I have seen a bunch of favorable remarks, that's what tempted me on it.

My grandparents lived in Idabel. I know your neck of the woods. Spent ALOT of time in that area growing up. Still venture down to Beavers Bend when I get the chance.
