Love this pistol. Sent a hundred rounds through it for first time and it was flawless. Overall great purchase. One negative was the iron sights which I plan to change.

I've owned this gun now for a little over a month and after 500 rounds she's been flawless. I have a large collection and this was the best $500 spent. If your on a budget you can do no wrong here, this is a very well made gun!

My first order from buds turned out great! I looked everwhere for a 1911 that didnt break the bank. My new rock Island 1911 acp came soaked in oil ,after a good cleaning the finish was great. I put 200 cheap fed though it without problem. The gun is built well. I did get some hammer bite due to my fat hands .I will change the hammer in future. I would recommend buds and rock island to anyone.

The gun is very well made and tight. For the price you can do no wrong. These guns are only going to increase in price.Great investment !! Tactical is the way to go. Get one while you can !

I read many reviews of 1911s and I was somewhat concerned about getting an inexpensive one, however after ready about the Rock Island 1911 I bought it. I took it to the range and shoot 100 rounds through it with no failure. I have taken it to the range every week for the last six week and shoot over 700 rounds no issue. I own a Kimber and I tell you what I could have bought two of these for the price of one. I like this weapon very much.

I am fortunate to have a growing collection, and this firearm is defiantly one of the superior pieces. I am very pleased with the overall construction and manufacturing in the Rock Island 1911. The appearance is top notch. The handgun is easy to handle and fires very accurately. I would recommend this gun to anyone interested in not just a bargain but a fine firearm.

I have had this Gun about three weeks now and have put 300 rounds through it so far. It has never jamed or had a single problem with me, But my wife did get one jam, she shot about 5 mags one handed and let her wrist break when she fired once causing the jam. In my opinion this gun gets a 5 star rating. Shoots good easy to clean, finsih is great, mine has no rattle when shook. I am not to found of the sights when shooting at a black target because they have no dots on them but thats easy to overcome. I highly recommend this gun and buds gunshop.
