Got my first pistol yay!

[X-Ravin]

Just picked her up at the 1500, and I'm heading to Linden tomorrow to shoot her. Hopefully I'll add a beavertail safety, skeleton trigger, and some nice grips once the wife isn't pissed anymore, massages work wonders...

what a great 1st pistol! is that a RIA GI? i have the tactical version and L-O-V-E it.

as for new grips, i bought a set from Esmarelda.

 

[X-Ravin]

It is indeed a RIA. I looked at the tactical for about 65 more, but the wife reluctantly agreed to the base model, I won't push my luck. Also I'd like to do stainless hammer and trigger.

lol i know what ya mean when it comes to the Missus. i think you will like your new gun. mine shoots like a dream. the only thing you might not like is the sight picture. lots of people dont like the GI sights; i personally dont mind them.

congrats again!

Congratulations on your first pistol! Looks very nice.

Very good looking gun. Hopefully i can get one of those sometime, and i have never really liked pistols, but ever since i saw a 1911 i have wanted one.

Welcome to the disease..1911 is my favorite handgun by far.I agree with LP gi sights are not the best but easy to fix..

 

[SC_Shooter]

Great purchase and brilliant idea on the massages. Note to self...

 

[WHRJeff]

Enjoy!!!

 

[mettle]

VERY good choice.

 

[Mgderf]

[LPMan59]

I want me a 1911

wait a few days....seems like a used RIA pops up once a week (prolly the same gun).

 

[K9stang]

I'm still regretting selling mine! Enjoy it.

 

[rockydog]

Nice first pick!

 

[hotfarmboy1]

Good first choice! Enjoy your trip into the 1911 addiction disease. I wanted one for a long time. Once I bought my first one I was hooked and now I just want more than the 2 I've got. Good luck with the wife!

 

[jclark]

Very good choice for first pistol.

 

[stilllearning09]

Good choice and have fun shooting it.

Congrats on a GREAT 1st handgun. One suggestion I have for you is .......... to buy lots of massage lotion, cause brother you just now caught the disease and the only cure is buying more GUNS.
