Hey all. Decided that my first 1911 is going to be either a Rock Island Armory or American Classic.
4 inch slide, satin or black finish hasn't been decided yet. Preferably with Novak style sights. Then have some gun-smithing done to it. Then some customs wood grips with a saying (my forum signature) engraved on it, with some shamrocks and filigree.
I just can't decide between the two.
I've handled the RIA ones, and they feel pretty good, but I've never even seen an American Classic, much less handled one.
So has anyone here handled both for comparison? or own one or the other and give me your thoughts on it?
