SR 1911 5". Do they come with a hard case?

[Coyote56]

Found a pretty good deal on a SR 1911 (5" barrel). Great shape, priced right. All that comes along with it are 2 Ruger magazines. I know the new SR pistols come with a box of stuff. No need for any of it. Question is...do they come from the factory in a hard (like plastic) box? This SR is used; trade in at the LGS. No box ain't a deal breaker but..I'd like to know. Thanks.

They didn't when they came out, they were in white cardboard boxes like the LCR and presumably other Ruger pistols from release to at least 6 years ago when Ruger was using the gray plastic cases.

No idea what they come in now.

Good morning all.

My 2011 Ruger SR1911 Full Size model came with;
a white card board box, black fabric zipper pistol
case, Ruger lock, 7rd and 8rd stainless steel
magazines, bushing wrench, and owner's manual/pamphlets.

I would assume it comes the same way now.

Hope that helps. Good luck with your purchase.

Mine too!

Mine too!

Thanks for the help. I remember my SR1911 Commander only came in a bag. However my 10mm included a plastic case

My 2011 didn't come with a bushing wrench wonder if I call Ruger if I can get one.

same here as noted above by Norseman, but it was one of the early ones got it from our late forum member 'Appleman' when they first came out, we miss old Bill E.

My full size from 2015 came with the bushing wrench but the Lightweight Commander in 9mm did not.

 

[Hawk-in-Wi]

I don't remember what year I got mine in but it didn't come with a bushing wrench but did come with the extra black rubber pachmayr type grips

 

[coyotesgator2]

I bought a LW 5" this year and it came with a bushing wrench in a black plastic box with a red Ruger logo on the top.

 

[rugerguy]

yes, most likely that is the case of the current day, too many complained of the cheapo flimsy cardboard boxes...the new larger black/red plastic cases are the cats meow, I sell lots of them at the gun shows after I swap out the plastic formed liners for foam..

2011 Ruger SR1911 Box and all.

 

[powder smoke]

Same H
Exactly the same way when I got mine Powder Smoke

My SR1911 10mm did not come with a bushing wrench....

 

[bisleyfan41]

My latest from 2022 came in a cardboard box.

 

[Coyote56]

Adios Kimber. I still own a couple Kimber 1911s, but when the chance to swap out even for this SR1911-well, that was kind of a no brainer.
Should fit in well with the group. 3 Rugers, 2 Kimbers, and a Colt....
Maybe I should grab onto a Springfield one day.

My SR1911 10mm did not come with a bushing wrench....

Mine came with a little bent wire for takedown.

 

[gnappi]

My was bought used and come to think of it I never even asked about the box.

I own Eight Ruger Sr1911's, that came in a paper cardboard box. All bought new,
Tisas has a Plastic box, not Ruger branded; but a nice size for 5" or 4.25 " 1911's. Well made & inexpensive too.
