Way to go DB, the Tactical is a good choice.

Thank you, and as an added bonus it is my first 9mm 1911! :)

congrats! With the rising cost of ammo...a 9mm gets more feasable every day. I'll be along to check out the new thread in just a moment :-)

Thanks for the offer Dave, very nice of you. I was actually looking for the WWII style thumb safety and scored a Colt take-off one from the other forum last week....just showed up today :-). Dont ask me why...but I have a fondness for those lil'nubbin safeties lol

Roger that SF, if you need it say the word and it's on the way. Got alot of extra parts.

This is the gun that's responsible for my 1911 habbit, easily worth twice what I paid for it and still one of my favorites to shoot. I got rid of the ambi safety and cut a little off the tail, might do a full bobtail yet.

RIA 1911 TT Tactical Hi-Cap .45ACP
 

my .45 RIA 1911 Tactical Hi-Cap with Para P15 mags (15+1) ..this will become a "project" and I've got a lot planned. Tritium adj. night sights from Trij.. a Clark Custom dehorning job..Clark accuracy/reliability package (guaranteed bang every time)..possibly a magwell if I decide it's not going to be a carry piece. As yall know the sky's the limit and I'm not stoppin till you can see my Rock on the moon!

Very nice dboy225!!:)

On the mags I think you mean Para P-14!!:)

Nope..almost bought those when someone put me onto the P15s.. they are pretty hard to find however. But I somehow manage to fit 16 rounds in all 4 of mine! With no feed problems. So you could actually call it a P16. Google it.. and I'll see if I can drag up my old purchase order! :) it's a nice thing when you're side by side to a Glock17 at the range and match it shot for shot without a magazine change!! I've gotten several double takes

OK, I see now dboy225, I thought that the P-15 was in 40S&W only!!

By the way, Centerfire Systems has the P-15 mags in 45ACP listed for sale.

I got mine from CTD because at the time I believe Centerfire was backordered for months.. but as far as I remember they're much easier to find in .45 now.. highly recommend em

She's really looking sweet Dave! great work as always.

I must have one of these... there's an Officer size Rock at my local shooting range that's been calling to me... I may go put it on layaway just to silence the voices...

Lane

Lane, Rocks are just like Lays Potato Chips you can't just Have One........


Clyde

Well, for what they are asking for the new ECO, I could get 4 of them...

I totally agrree.........So get yourself a Long Slide.............


Waiting for my 38 Super to hit my LGS................


Clyde

Honestly.. I'm getting very "itchy" every time I see this..

..and I think it's reasonable to predict that it'll be my second Rock! Anyone got the 2012 widebody .45 yet?

♤Sent via Xparent Tapatalk for Android♤

Dan, they are in such high demand that I cannot even get any of the new ones yet!!!

I bet they are..and you're in the know about such things aren't you Mag? Prolly for the best as I'm t-minus 2 weeks to being the father of a lil man! :D ..Diapers.. 1911 ..diapers.. 1911 :confused:

At any rate by the time I won't feel bad for 1911 shopping I'm sure they'll have an even better version.. if that's possible.

Dan, congrats on becoming a new dad!!!:)

Sure it can and will change your life style but it is all worth it my friend!!! There will always be 1911's out there but only one little one right now to spend your time with!!:)

Thanks! I'm beyond excited..this isn't my first rodeo, but soon I'll finally have my lil hunting buddy! All girls under my roof till now lol...and you're right about the 1911. 100+ years and going strong!! Let's just hope for a good bonus sometime this year ;) and I won't feel as bad "if" said 2012 Tactical happens to just "show up" at my local FFL. ;) shhh
