Just wanted to know if anyone has the SR1911 from Ruger. If anyone has it what are your thoughts and which shop did you get it at?

I have one that I got in June from my LGS on the mainland where I was living at the time.  Much to my surprise they happened to have one sitting in the case so home it came with me! I really like it. I have only had a chance to put around 400 rounds through it before I left and I did have an issue a few times with it failing to return to battery but that was only with Magtech brand ammo, I thought I bought FMJ but what the guy gave me was these flat nose lead bullets. I have tried a few other ammo, mostly FMJ ball and one box of hollowpoints and all of that fired with zero issues. I cant compare it to other 1911's because this one is my first but it has all the features I wanted and I have been happy.

It got good reviews on You Tube. Was a highly sought after firearm when it fist came out. Ruger knows how to make a tank of a gun.

I don't know much about them but I DO know that I want one. I plan to make the SR1911 my first of many 1911's

Nice mid range price on the gun.  If it's anything like their mark pistol like they are accurate, reliable and user friendly.  I want to fondle one
