I gotta stop looking at these threads. It's like some form of firearm porn. Now I gotta have a 1911 and I had just gotten used to the idea of not having one. Stood many a watch with one of those hanging from my hip. Take care. Tom Worthington.
What model is this Rock Island? I like the looks of it. Not a long slide, yet a nice size butt/grip area...I thought I wanted "compact" untill I actually held them. The butt's bottom was in the middle of my palm. (get yer mind outa the gutter )
thanx....
It's their mid-sized model, MS 1911a1. It has a full-sized grip with a shortened dust cover and a 4" barrel instead of a 5" like on the standard govt. length 1911s. The weight distribution as very balanced and doesn't feel 'nose heavy'. I really like this length. It's a great middle ground between a pistol aptly sized for CC yet still a great range gun. Here are some new pics...
