New 1911

[DW6096]

I placed one on order and 2 days later I actually got it. Heck of a deal at. $579. I can't wait to shoot it.

 

[Cholo]

Good deal! I paid 95¢ more. I got rooked! :x

:wink:

 

[MnBulldog]

Great deal!

They are all worth whatever WE paid for them along the way (if we paid more) right?

They are so nice.

 

[modrifle3]

That depends on what you paid LOL.

 

[modrifle3]

Anymore than $650 and there are better options.

 

[modrifle3]

Just got a Springfield range officer so theSr1911 isn't getting much use .

 

[schloss]

What are the better options if you go over $650?

 

[dlay]

I paid $17.00 more, now I cant sleep.....

Mine is suffering from starvation. Haven't been able to buy practice ammo anywhere around Central Florida. My shot guns are getting fed pretty well though.

 

[modrifle3]

Springfield RO, Loaded, Colt Gold Cup, Remington R1Enhanced are better options if going $800 or more. For the $650 range Sr is a lot of pistol. I would most likely not have bought one had Ruger not offered it for $79.00 after not being able to fix my p97. The springer doesn't compare to the Gold Cup I had many years ago, but for the money it is quality.

I'd say $579 is a steal! Not sure where you guys are finding these sub $600 SR1911.

$36 more for me, I sleep just fine.

 

[DW6096]

Lol. Y'all are killing me.

That is a good deal. I got my first one for $597 I think, but the gunstore was having a big Fathers Day sale, so get there when they open and stand in line.

 

[Ashecht]

Paid $700 otd

 

[Neetan]

Well how do I tell you I paid less!

Story is that the gun I did want was in stock at my LGS and I went in and left a deposit on 2 Ruger mark 3 lights one for my better half and one for me for Xmas. Well the gun store sold them on me even after I had left a 30% deposit till the dear government gave me permission to take it home. Well it took time till I got approval. Went back to the store which is 2 hour away........ got there and Guess what They sold them on me! so after a long talk with the owner he said he would give me the sr1911 at cost and I bought 2..... now she is not into guns which made and has made the process of guns in the house a issue. But now I have to find another Ruger at a decent price.
With 200$ for the course + 800$ membership + the two sr1911 and a safe (bylaw) the cash flow is blown...

Still happy I got a SR1911......

 

[eveled]

If you don't mind me asking, what was cost?

I am somewhat new to guns and got the SR1911 about 8 months ago for $650 OTD. I am a total fan of 1911's now and that this gun is not only a fun gun to shoot, but it has taught me so much about shooting. The ease of maintenance and reliability make it a joy. I have learned how to shoot a handgun with this and am proficient at 25 yards, not wasting any rounds. I would love to go the next step up to a more tricked out expensive gun, but I don't really think I'd be gaining any practical use over the SR1911. Other than I just love the feel and function of 1911's now thanks to this gun.

There's an SR1911 sitting in my LGS for $850. Ouch...$200 more than what I paid for mine late last year. I guess that's a good thing. Nothing else in my house holds its' value like that.

Couple SR1911's available in my area. They are at $749 in two different gun stores.

I have had mine for over 2 years and got it for $600. There is a story behind it, but that is posted in a different thread. The short version is, bought mine on the side of the road in a parking lot of a visitor's information center.
