OK so I got the itch to pick up a 1911 in 9mm.
Was at my LGS today and found a like-new Rock Island with Trijicon sights and 4 mags for $450. Build was tight, it felt great in hand, and the trigger was smooth and crisp.
I was planning to go to FS next week to check out/buy a Springfield RO for $699 + tax but now I am wondering if I should just get the RIA. I haven’t held the SA but have heard they are great too. Is the 60% premium for the SA worth it?
Which would you buy and why? Thanks.
