I called them again, got another lesson on dry safes and cleaning, set up a case for it at ruger, said to send it back if wanted and they will look at it. He said if it is deemed my fault, I would pay for repairs..Would never relate to the contaminated metal, said it was a porous stainless and...

Very good post, good information, thanks..

I called them, got a lesson on keep my safe dry, told him it was only one that I had problems with. He never admitted that they had had rust problems and told me to wipe down with wd 40, which I dont use on firearms much. I thanked him for his time and bye.

I will call them after the holidays.

Read into this on other forums, seems some of these guns suffered from being sandblasted with sand with a corrosive chemical that imbedded into the medal. Ruger said this and have replaced some parts. I will give them a calll and see what they say, if nothing will clean up well and sell it.

Yesterday I got my sr1911 out of the safe and it had rust forming all down the top of slide, was put in wiped down etc. None of my other guns have ever done this. Is there a problem with the steel?

What an idiot!

After shooting it and seeing the precision in the firearm, it has become a crowd favorite of mine. It is accurate and reliable.

I meant to ask, what do you all think about them?

I bought a beretta 92fs inox, made in Italy, sold new in 2009, don't think had been fired with all accessories that I think was a good deal. I have liked the looks of them but never really wanted one, but now that I have played and shot it I am beginning to appreciate it.

I have a 5 in and love it, not going to carry either one, much too heavy and I am not that worried. I carry the lcp when I feel the need, but I enjoy shooting and playing with the 1911.

I love the Hogue rubber grips, have them on mine.

Dremel tools and firearms don't mix.
