The Rugers sure seem hard to beat for the price. | |||

Personal preference. I like the Springfield better my self. Bull barrel, nicer finish, rail and factory night sights for about $200 more. Ambi safety as well if you're a southpaw. YMMV. A Perpetual Disappointment... | |||

Just scored a NIB Ruger LW Commander for $702. Please pardon my ridiculous grin. Now....off to shop for ammo, holsters, magazines, new sights, grips, etc. etc...... _______________________________ The artist formerly known as AllenInWV | |||

You guys are gonna laugh at me. That's ok. I've had a Springer ultra compact for decades. Always wanted a full sized. Walked into my lgs the other day, and there was a plain Jane ATI for, get this, 275.00. She's a shooter! Not broken in yet, not exactly a Wilson, but for 275.00 what the heck! Suprisingly decent trigger and good accuracy. I can't stop giggling. There's a man with a pointy stick at the door! | |||

Range Report: Shot 150 rounds of 9mm 115gr Speer Lawman ball through my Ruger Commander today. Accuracy better than I can hold and 100% function. And this was with a wide variety of aftermarket magazines from Metalform, Mec-Gar, Wilson and Ruger. Only gripe: The damn Ruger magazines wont take the last round. Sent them back for new ones. Same problem. End of Earth: 2 Miles Upper Peninsula: 4 Miles | |||

For the money, the Sig 1911's are a remarkable buy. I have had several custom made 1911's and the Sig 1911 in 45acp that I recently acquired has impressed me. The fit and finish is excellent, but more importantly this pistol is extremely accurate and shoots as good as any custom 1911 that i have had. | |||

I'm not laughing WITH you |
Yeah, I've been thinking about those. Whenever I wear my full sized Ruger 1911 I feel like I'm "listing to starboard" due to the weight. Rolan Kraps SASS Regulator Gainesville, Georgia. NRA Range Safety Officer NRA Certified Instructor - Pistol / Personal Protection Inside the Home | |||

I agree with this. I currently have the Sig C3 and Ultra and I'm very pleased with both of them. Reliable and accurate right out of the box in both cases. Both were in a price range well below $1,000. Jim ________________________ "If you can't be a good example, then you'll have to be a horrible warning" -Catherine Aird | |||

I took delivery of my Ruger LW Commander Wednesday. I just got back from Novak's where they installed some night sights to replace the factory white dots. Spent an entertaining and educational 1.5 hours jawing with a couple of the guys there. They were nice enough to show me some of the Novak Custom Colts that are going go be available soon. I gotta say, the difference between this Commander and my Commander is night and day..... The price tag is impressive. LOL Certainly not "budget." _______________________________ The artist formerly known as AllenInWV | |||

Supposedly they'll have a "Novak Inc." website up soon,so maybe they'll have some more goodies up. They let me fondle three of these 1911s, a .45 Commander, a 9mm Commander, and a .45 full-size. They also had some demo grip panels they are going to have VZ make just for them. Hard to describe....like squat pyramids.

How about the Remington R1 commander? The de horned models looks promising. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ***My Idea Of Gun Control Is A Firm Grip!!!***-------***NRA Life Member***---------- | |||
