Stopped by my local Pawn Shop today and was handed a Rock Island Armory in .45. Obviously they know my love of the 1911 platform...
Anyways, I got to looking over this particular firearm and thought that the price was decent at $335. Then I noticed it had 2 Wilson mags, a Wilson hammer, and a Wilson trigger, a Wilson beavertail grip safety, and to top it off, a set of those Crimson Trace laser grips. I asked 3-4 times if the price included the grips and was told yes so I had them hold it until I could stop by tomorrow and write a check.
So, what do you guys/gals think of the Rock Island as a firearm? I have absolutely no experience with that Brand but it seems like a fairly well made piece.
