"Selling basically a brand new Rock Island VZ Tactical 9MM 1911 5" barrel. Gun has had about 25 rounds through it and shoots great I just shoot my Glock more. Paid $600 and will let go for $450 No trades."
I actually am a member there, since 2006 with a whopping 17 postS, interesting. I let him know I was interested, thanks for the heads up.
I've got one of the non vz grip models, they're solid

The finish is Parkerized, which is not my favorite finish for a handgun but certainly of high enough quality. I've put a few hundred 22TCM through it and probably 1500 9mm. Never an issue. The grips are VZ and really allow good grip and control. Mine is a single stack model and uses a ten round magazine (all of mine are RIA or aftermarket 38 Super). Comes with high visibility front sight and a mag well. For $625, I couldn't say no. Great shooter!
is anyone else making tcm ammo yet or is it still just arsmcor?

Any STI dealers you recommend?
Check gunbroker.com
Order this 2016 model, be happy like a duck.

I would probably own that gun already if it wasn't for the giant name rollmarked on the other side.
I've written STI about having them make me one without that mark, but they declined.
yes they do like to have a giant billboard on the side of their pistols, id prefer something more lowkey myself.

Re: 9mm 1911 opinions

I love my springfields and want to get myself a 9mm ro
The only 9mm 1911 I have is an ria and its rock solid, surprisingly well built for how cheap it was . I got it to be a platform to modify but still haven't gotten to it
Firing a 9mm full sized steel 1911 is really easy, minimal recoil flat shooting


What I have my eye on right now is the range officer operator in 9mm
