Bellshire Hardware has some of the best RIA prices on Gunbroker and they're located in Nashville.

Guns and Leather carries them as well.

Theres usually a ton at the gunshows. I got one at the nashville show about a month or two ago. I'll take a look at the card, I can't remember who the dealer was, but he was out of nashville.

Your caps lock key broke?

That aside, you could always try on-line. There are some good deals out there for RIA.

[Shima]

I think Hero Gear usually stocks them too.

[Guest coldblackwind]

The one I got was front Volunteer ordnance works out of Cleveland tn apparently. $450 out the door if I recall?

The term is called netiquette and typing in all caps online is the equivalent of screaming.

It is just annoying to read. Proper punctuation, capitalization, and grammar goes a long way.

So much for punctuation!!

Olny srmat poelpe can raed tihs.

I cdnuolt blveiee taht I cluod aulaclty uesdnatnrd waht I was rdanieg. The phaonmneal pweor of the hmuan mnid, aoccdrnig to a rscheearch at Cmabrigde Uinervtisy, it deosn't mttaer in waht oredr the ltteers in a wrod are, the olny iprmoatnt tihng is taht the frist and lsat ltteer be in the rgh it pclae. The rset can be a taotl mses and you can sitll raed it wouthit a porbelm. Tihs is bcuseae the huamn mnid deos not raed ervey lteter by istlef, b ut the wrod as a wlohe. Amzanig huh? yaeh and I awlyas tghuhot slpeling was ipmorantt!

[Guest TUNER260]

Ok the punctuation i get but i dont remember spelling anything wrong. I could be wrong so don't go over the top and point out everything i spell incorrectly

[Guest Major Pain]

Wow, tough crowd this morning.--MP

[glockster157]

That wasn't directed at you Tuner, I just thought this was funny and I saw BillWilly's spelling post and I wanted to share. I did find it interesting that I could read it the first time I saw it.

Now back to our regularly scheduled program of Rock Island Pistols.

For what it's worth, I think they are a great gun for the money. I have heard only good things about them. I know most of the smaller gun stores around here stock them. I also know that I see a lot of them at every gun show I attend.

[Daniel]

I got one about a month ago, while only firing 100 through it (i forgot to take it to the range last week) i had no problems. I read all the stuff about how to check for fit and finish and have noticed no issues at all. It's obviously not a semi-custom but its still fine for my intentions.

[Guest coldblackwind]

Go to the november 2008 tgo shooting contest (sticky post in the handgun forums) my entry is with a rock island .45. I'm not a particularly great shot with a handgun, so that should give you an idea what the gun will do.

[Guest TUNER260]

Yeah i have done alot of homework on them. I will not carry it more than likely. I just want it to see how i like 1911's

[Angus]

My dad-in-law has one, and I love it. I am getting a less expensive .45 ( Ruger p90 ) as a Christmas present, but I really liked his Rock Island. I am pretty sure that the boys at Guns and Leather have them also.

[Guest Rugerman]
