Remington 1911 R1
Does anyone have one? I just picked one up, looking for others thoughts on this. I'm seeing a lot of good reviews on it, so I'm feeling good about my purchase. Stupid Florid 3-day background check has me picking it up on the 31st...
|
The R1 is a good 1911 for the money. Post up some pics/range report when you get it.
|
Will do. I'm reading some online reviews and I'm feeling confident as a first weapon. I was looking at Sig Sauers but the place I bought it from had those wayy out of my price range.

Trigger pull
I am interested in how the trigger feels when you shoot it. Is it too hard, jerky, rough, or smooth?
|
It says its got a 3.5-5.0lb trigger pull, and it felt solid when I did a dry-fire. I'll let you know on the 31st, I'm about to go pick up a box of 100 rounds to send through it :devil:

The SIG 1911's can be had for about $750 around here. They are really underrated and have few MIM parts. I bought an XO a while back and love it.

i have a R1 and it shoots great! the trigger is really smooth and very light for sure. but mine was accurate right out of the box. i cant say anything about reliability since ive only shot about 40 rounds from it so far.

Well I already bought some Houge finger grips and a tactical holster- I figured that would be more comfortable to carry when I'm out on my four wheeler. I have about 250+ acres of corn fields with large dirt piles 30ft high that are only accessible by four wheeler so it's perfect

I was referring to P226/9s. I wanted one of those, but instead switched to the 1911 model. I might go get a smaller 230 or something for concealed.

Get a suppressor for it. For some reason(lock time?) a 1911 is the best 45acp host.
|
What the heck am I going to do with a suppressor? I'd have to switch to a threaded barrel. I was thinking of getting a compensator.
I pick it up Monday morning. I can't wait! |
