Rock Island 1911 FS Standard 9mm 

I appreciate you watching and commenting.

I appreciate you watching and commenting. I hope that the 9mm version works for you.

Thanks for watching.I hope that you enjoy yours. I'll be taking this one to the range in the near future and shooting more defensive ammunition. Stay tuned to the channel for that video.

Thanks for watching, your service, and your comment. It is a good 1911 as 1911s go. I trust RIA products; I carried one in .45 ACP for over nine years.

Thank you, sir, for your kind comment.

Thanks for watching. I hope that you enjoyed the presentation. I agree, RIA does make some good 1911 pistols for the price. I carried the .45 ACP version of this pistol for nine years and it was as reliable, and as accurate, as my high-priced (high-priced for me anyway) 1911s.

Thank you for watching, subscribing, and for the kind words.

Thanks for watching and commenting. I have more expensive 1911s as well.. RIA offers a good product at a decent price. More importantly, their customer service seems to be in good order.

Thanks for watching and commenting. I have the G.I version of this in .45 ACP. You will like the G.I in 9mm. Here a link to the specs, if you are interested (www.armscor.com/hubfs/2021%20Spec%20Sheets/51615---GI-Standard-FS.jpg)

I enjoy mine, however it wasn't the model I really wanted. I wanted the Tac Ultra 9mm/22tcm ,but I punked out for a cheaper price.

@@sheldonwebb4802 You are probably better off with what you have. Thanks for watching and commenting.

I bought both the tac and the GI. Both are 100% reliable and reasonably accurate during off hand shoot. I use the tac in the single stack class for steel challenge club level competition. Great review thank you for sharing.

@@ritesideofthefence5857 Thanks for watching and commenting. Sounds like you are putting your RIAs to good use. I consider them an excellent value.

Thanks for taking the time to watch and for your question. The rotary was just something the wife had hanging around and I "borrowed" it. She did make me return it, though. I also have a motorized rotary that I use on occasion.

Thank you for taking the time to watch and comment. Yessir! I do take some time to cover the material. I don't care if a firearm is high-end or low-end, they all get treated the same. I have since learned, since starting this journey of mine, to scale back the BG music. I have attempted to get Morgan Freeman, James Earl Jones, and Sam Elliot to narrate my videos, but they turned me down. The viewer has to live with my voice and narration. I have also had conversations with my script writer, but he refuses to listen to me, as does my wife. He does get rather technical at times, and we have argued back and forth regarding reducing the technical content, just do some quick and dirty rushed reviews showing just my hands flailing over some firearm like some reviewers do (I have a face made for radio), or add more "Wow" factor in with some drama, but that has never flown for me. I would fire the scriptwriter, photographer, filmmaker, director, and producer, but since that is me, I have no alternative but to try and deliver the best content that I can, throw it all out there, and let the viewer (a prospective purchaser of the firearm, or one who already owns the firearm) determine what's useful, or not, according to their wants, desires, and wishes. I just try to tell of my journey with a firearm, or gear, or accessory the best I can.

Mi not looking for quick and dirty, just get to the point your tiring to make! Video's are excellent but way too drawn out and take more time then need be! Thank you for your excellent reviews, God bless!@@RangeRoninChronicles

@@pmmccrea I appreciate your input. Thank you.

😁 I totally agree!

right? And if Congressmen (forget Biden/Harris) would go out on a range and all shoot 1911s, they wouldn't be so quick to judgement about the recreation and self defense issues@@RangeRoninChronicles

@@crankybuzzard6867 And then I asked myself, "Self, would you want to be on a range with the likes of AOC, or John Fetterman, or any of their ilk? 🥴

why not..... someone has to hold the targets up.@@RangeRoninChronicles

Thanks for watching and commenting. I try a variety of music. At times it works, at times it does not. Trying to appease everyone's taste in music is more of a challenge than actually producing the photos, videos, and scripting.
