Default Gun Stories, Wednesday night at the Range
Tonight's story was the 1911. Guess what? RIA figures fairly prominently in the story. Joe mentioned Armscor as the biggest producer of 1911s in the world. Almost every 1911 shown was also a RIA. Now, the price will probably go up on them!

It was a great episode. Dave, did you happen to see the ShootingUSA episode the same night profiling the S&W M&P Shield 9mm???

Jerry Miculek was gaga over it. Guess that wimpy little 9mm ain't so bad afterall....

Good episode needed to be a hour long for the amount of history behind it. Thinking I should pick up a RIA before they start costing more. Still can find them for 400 or less now.

M&P are very nice, however Jerry is a Smith paid guy so i would expect no less from him. He is a friken freak though....wish I could shoot like that guy......maybe if I had some of reloads....

I love my little RIA Compact - for the last 6 months, it's been my daily carry...
