What people are buying - Handguns or long guns?

Sit back and talk with friends. Same rules as before. Rule #1-Relax with friends on the front or back porch.
Rule #2-No Politics, religion or anything above a G level.

I've been thinking about this one 'Rock Island M 1911 GI Standard Pistol'.
Lots of good things said about the RIA line of pistols - and I am planning on one eventually in 9mm but it will be the 'Rock' version with all the goodies including adjustable sights.

I've looked them over at my LGS and great fit, smooth with a good trigger. The finish is obviously where they cut corners but it is not bad for a basic parkerizing. I don't think a better gun can be had in it's price range and they are better than they SHOULD be for the price!
I have one of those, yes they have a nice trigger and shoot well. Never had an issue, it's my Winter carry\truck gun.
For the price they are hard to beat.

That might happen, but I expect to have it well broken in by then. Anyway, got notice it's ready for pickup. Doing that tomorrow.

For sure the bidding is "wild and furious." :roll: In the last 11 days there have been 53 bids. Wonder how it will end?

Picked it up today. Too busy right now to do anything with it other than lock it up in the safe. Also bought a bunch of ammo for all my guns for my own Christmas stocking.
