This gun is much truer to the full sized 1911. No more composite frame (it's Parkerized steel) No more Series 80 type firing ping safety. No more disconnect safety. No more plastic guide rod.



What is missing is the recoil lugs and barrel link. The Browning was a locked action, but did not use a link, instead using a more "modern" linkage. But the Baby Rock is straight blowback.



It has a round butt, which I like. The magazine is flush, which I like. The Browning rear bottom corner was very uncomfortable for IWB wear. The Baby Rock is slightly smaller all around, and although it is steel instead of plastic, I really don't think it feels any heavier.







Here it is torn down. Except for the aforementioned lack of recoil lugs and barrel link, and the slide height, everything seems to be an exact scale model of a full sized 1911. The slide is trimmer height-wise then a scaled down 1911 because of the fact that it's a blowback, and doesn't need to pivot down.







Dirty gun pictures TBA

Joe; that longslide 10 is spectacular. A gun on my list to on yet!


Jim, RIA are really good guns for the money. Mine have been great. Not as pretty but works when it’s supposed too. I am RIA fan myself. Nothing but good for me.
