RIA 1911 .45 Compact w/ GI sights WTS in Austin. SOLD

I have a used RIA Compact 1911 with exactly 240 rounds down the pipe. It has the parkerized finish and it has barely any wear on the slide. I used to carry it (for 3 weeks only), but favored my Glock 36 because of the weight. I am selling this (with regrets) for the money. I love this gun, it is very accurate for a compact. It does have the GI sights on it, but found them to be very accurate for me. I bought it new and I have all the case candy to go with it.

The only issues I have ever had as far as ammo, is that it did not like MagTech ammo, 4 failure to return to full battery out of 50 rounds. It fed WWB, Speer Lawman, Winchester Silver HP, Fiocchi Frangible, and Federal just fine.

I keep her cleaned and oiled up after every range trip.

Will come with 2 x 7 rd. Novak Mags (only comes with one from the store), Hogue wrap around grips (original wood also included), pistol, case candy, RIA hard case.

I am asking for $420 for everything listed.

FTF in Austin, or I am willing to drive up to 50 miles outside of city limits, to the nearest gun range for the right deal. CHL preferred, but you must have TX DL and sign bill of sale. Thanks.

If you are interested, PM me. I have my phone set to notify my if I get any PM's from here.

Too bad you're not in Houston. If you make it over this way, let me know and we'll work something out.

:iagree:

I have one just like it. I paid $415 + tax and mine didn't come with the grips & extra mag this one does.

AndyC shot mine Saturday and in his words, "This thing is deadly accurate!"

At 15 yards I can completely shoot out all the black bullseye on a regular silhouette target... Pretty darn good for a 3.5" barrel on a .45.
