This looks solid as hell. That's such a nice move to go with the bushingless bull barrel. The silver and black looks really nice. I am interested.

You can mount an RDS on a 1911, Better trigger, has a safety, more weight for soaking up recoil, more accurate design, and 10mm glocks are notorious for being unreliable with hot loads

Can someone redpill me on the advantages of a bushingless 1911 over those that use bushings? From a quick Google search all I'm seeing is that when it comes time for a new "bushing" on a standard 1911 bushingless 1911s need new barrels or slides instead of a $15 or so drop in part, why in the hell would I want a bushingless 1911?

They largely focus on sporting arms, with military and LEO coming second, flagship products like the American, GP100, Blackhawk and 10/22 aren't really geared towards the High Speed Low Drag market.
They've always put sporting arms first.

They're also among the most proficient and prolific investment casters in America, all kinds of things are outsourced to them because they are the best. And they're good at it, I challenge you to put a 629 through the same loadings a Super Redhawk can manage.

It's a manufacturing process like any other.
You talk shit about Metal Injection Molding, suggesting all you're going by is fuddlore, you've heard it used in nebulous contexts but I bet you can't even articulate what makes it bad.
>>
>>34278302
This
If you handload the high end of the .44 mag, the reloading manuals even say to only use in super Blackhawks and redhawks.
I have seen model 29s absolutely destroyed by hot .44 mags. Crooked cranes, pitted forcing cones, blown out cylinders, barrel splits, the timing gears stripped.

>>34278439
As a Ruger fanboy, I'll say that I'd probably pick another kind of pistol for military service, just personal preference.

On the other hand, handguns have very minor relevance and sees little practical use in military contexts, so as long as it's something that 'just works', you're in the green. Helps that the Ruger P series was cheap and robust, I guess.
>>
>>34278083
Why are Ruger autoloaders so bad?
>>
>>34278476
get the RIA, its double stacked and looks better
>>
Black barrel and controls + stainless frame and slide = very attractive.

I would rip on Ruger for making "only a 1911" with low capacity magazine, but I just spent $1300 on a Sig P220 10mm and it only has 8 rounds in the magazine as well. Both are "obsolete," but unless there are any egregious problems with the Ruger, I'll probably end up owning both.

>>34278070
>>>Bushingless
>>Bull barrel
>>Need paperclip for disassembly
Yeah, but the RIA 1911 in 10mm is the same way, at least the original single-stack one is.

>>34278531
Do you own one? I'd love to hear from an owner of a "Big Rock." The guns are very elusive.

Those will probably be replaced by AR15s soon, if not already.

Umm no sweety, the Mini14 was designed as a military firearm first, and it was a total failure in testing, then Ruger slopped his diarrhea rifle on civilians

It's because of low level trolling like this that the actual problems with the 10mm Glocks never get discussed or addressed. I've owned two of them and I've never shot a more jam-prone, ammo-sensitive polymer handgun in my life than the Glock 20. I just put in an order the other day for my third one because apparently I never learn (and no I don't own the other two anymore). Hopefully it won't be such a piece of shit.

I'm not a poorfag. I just don't like to take expensive risks that might end with the result of me having thrown my money away. Granted, RIA does have good customer service, but there is such a thing as a gun so flawed that CS can't fix it. I just don't know enough about the Big Rock, and I have a very low opinion about Filipino guns in general.
>>
>>34278661
Just get a citidel, they are made by the same manufacture and sold for a few hundred less.
Also SAM manufacturing makes a great 1911. They are imported through LSI (I think) and they make great guns for usually $800 or so dollars.

>If investment castings are so great, how come Ruger has no LE or Military sales?

Because they do not compete for LE and military contracts. Have you actually read about what those major competitions entail? They are highly valuable if you win, but they also require huge investments of time and money to participate. This is compounded by the fact that the competitions themselves are often compromised by politics and kickbacks (look at any of the trials involving the M4, the fiascos that occurred before/during the adoption of the M16, or the controversies surrounding the M9, the Pancor Jackhammer etc) and there is no guarantee that your product will win even if it is the most superlative one tested.

That being said, Ruger has shown that it DOES have the ability to win military/LE contracts if they try. When Bill Ruger was alive, their DA revolvers actually beat out S&W in a number of big contracts (Border Patrol and Air Force, among others) and performed incredibly well in testing.

>>
>>34278039
There is no advantage to bull barrel 1911s outside of more weight at the muzzle.
The barrel is supported on both ends so the extra rigidity of the bull barrel does nothing for accuracy, and like you found out, unlike with a gun with a bushing once the fit of the barrel to the slide wears out it's time for a new barrel instead of an oversized bushing

I picked up one of the IJH-70 .380 models for about $250 and I enjoy it, It's nice, compact, easy on the eyes and due to it's fairly heavy construction recoil is non-existent, pretty good budget carry gun in a pinch.

Star Model B is 9mm and lacks the gay grip safety.
>>
>>34279536
I get you.

I wish someone made kits for various 1911s to turn the grip safety into just plain grip, I hate the feel of the things, makes the grip feel less solid and definite.

Ssssh, don't ruin the bias he's built up with buzzwords! He actually thinks he understands what he's talking about and knows something other people doesn't.

Not him but, a range that gets an extraordinary amount of no-gunz tourist traffic.

If it withstands the abuse, it may be an alright gun.

Oh, look. Two posts in a row saying the same thing. Totally not samefag, though, right?

>>34282094
Because burgers have shit taste in guns.
>>
>>34282306
Yeah and the extractors appear to be made of a type of firm cheese.
>>
>>34281613
Browning's short-recoil operation is the standard because the average pistol cartridges have pressures too high for blowback

I like straight blowback, very reliable, and having a fixed barrel makes for an accurate gun; but it's not a practical system for 9mm Luger

OH YEAH! DUMB AMERICAN MARKET, TOTALLY THEIR FAULT! WHY DIDN'T THEY BUY THAT FUCKING HUNK OF SHIT THAT LITERALLY DIDN'T WORK OUT OF THE BOX

Are you gonna blame Americans too when the retarded 7.5mm BRNO doesn't make any sales because it's the cost of a transferable machinegun?

Also it had a superfluous (and objectively dangerous) crossbolt safety in the slide serrations, in addition to the thumb safety on the frame.
>>
how does the recoil spring and guide stay captive on a bull barrel 1911 if there is no bushing to contain it?
>>
>>34283978
So in conclusion, the Bren Ten was only amazing in concept:
>all steel
>cool new 10mm Auto cartridge
>DA/SA trigger
>Czechnology for looks

I'd honestly rather see CZ themselves make a proper 10mm Auto pistol.
>>
I'd love someone to make a conversion kit for the CZ-97 for 10mm

>>34278149
2/10 getting me to reply

The mini 14 has seen law enforcement use in Europe and the US. See >>34278204 and I believe Paris police use the mini 14.

Some Rhodesian soldiers used the Mini 14, especially in Private Militias. The Royal Bermuda Regiment used it as their primary rifle for a short period.

it has been well liked too. All the issues by now have been worked out, and it's an "Accurate enough" rifle.

Most military and LEO contract Mini-14s had a thicker barrel (along with a flash-hider and bayonet lug), regardless of if they were semi-auto or the actual select-fire ones.
Their accuracy was acceptable.

>>34283998
You can always pay $1000 for a Tanfoglio/EAA Stock, or a Rock Island Big Rock if you want an all metal 10mm that holds 15 in the magazine.
>>
>>34279437
Only reason is because people aren't engaging the safety all the way so the gun might go off when the safety is only half engaged, go figure. It's pretty much operator error, just don't be dumb. I'm not sending mine in and I live 10 miles from the factory.
>>
>>34284521
Modern firearms shouldn't have safety levers that can be stopped at a middle position. You might see that on guns designed prior to WWII, but consumers expect manufacturers to use a functioning detent in the safety design in all modern firearm designs.
>>
>>34284686
I agree completely, and the mk4 safety id's really squishy, but still. People should make sure they're engaging the safety
>>
>>34277932
>has a safety
>a good thing

fucking retard

Ruger plus anything with a cylinder equals great gun. Ruger plus anything with a slide equals shit. Simple.

I own four Rugers, two revolvers and two semiauto pistols. The revolvers are awesome. I'd trade the LCP and LC9 for fucking Hi Points.

>Ruger plus anything with a cylinder equals great gun. Ruger plus anything with a slide equals shit. Simple.
I agree, unfortunately. The original P-series guns were at least very durable and reliable, but then they should be seeing as they're completely overbuilt bricks. The current SR series are very nice looking for what they are, but completely unremarkable in every other way compared to the competition. Why can't Ruger seem to get this right?
>>
>>34285018
Well, Ruger did save $10 or so on my LCP by giving it the lousiest trigger ever made, and then reinvested it in their "new" red trigger LCP and sold many more. Savvy business decision in the short term, at least, add it doesn't seem to have hurt their sales thanks to all the loyal Ruger revolver crowd who would defend a Ruger made out of recycled pig shit.
>>
>>34282352
I miss the Model 39.
>>
>>34279917
Idk what your question is, but no.
9x25 is a 10mm case necked down to 9mm, capable of obscene shit like 95gr @ 2000 fps and 135 at 1700fps.

>>34282708
By what standard. Nobody has ever said they were the greatest shit ever
>>
>>34283032
They sold plenty of guns, it was used in Miami Vice ffs. The company just couldn't get their shit together.. guns without mags aren't gonna do well
>>
>>34283991
The same as any other gun that isn't a 1911. It's held in the slide assembly. That captive assembly, linkless barrels and one or two other little touches are natural progressions for the 1911 that never became standard for whatever reason
>>
>>34284032
That essentially what any of the Tanfoglio 10mm are since they're built on the large frame and and Tanfoglios themselves are somewhat improved versions of the CZ
>>
>>34284987
So sell them you retard

>>34285018
Adequate =/= shit
They've never never gone for great, just great for the money
