What a cheap classic...
What a cheap classic handgun. Has all the performance of any 1911 on the market just lacking the finer touches which aren't needed in most cases.

I've had this gun for...
I've had this gun for some time now. Gun runs great with supplied mag. Chip McCormick mags also. With the ambi. safety, hammer, and good sights, its a lot of bang for your buck. I just ordered an EDC holster for it. My 1791Leather rig is a bit much. As always Bud's gets two thumbs up.

A: Aluminum Trigger with adjustable over travel stopThe Rock Standard full-size is built in traditional classic 70 series design and delivered with our top quality production and engineering standards. It's chambered in .45ACP with a 5" button rifled barrel supported by a full length guide rod. Smooth, angled, snag-free style allows for quick draw in fast need situations. Includes a low profile angled rear sight along with skeletonized hammer and trigger with adjustable over travel stop and ambidextrous safety standard in the Rock series. Finished with a tough, parkerzied matte coating and comes with checkered rubber grips. True to all Rock Island 1911s, it comes with a crisp factory 4- to 6-pound trigger, making it a great experience right out of the box

A: Hi Earl, this pistol has an Aluminum Trigger.
Author: Steve P.
A: It has a lightweight Aluminum trigger shoe attached to a steel trigger bow. It will rattle a bit. The horizontal and vertical play cannot be adjusted out. Only take up can be adjusted and should not be adjusted to the point there is no wiggle.The hammer hooks will more likely than not rub the sear when you let the hammer down manually if you do. You can get a special stone and an oversize match trigger (like the Grieder) and fit the trigger and bow to the gun so it won't rattle.

Q: First-time buyer, and Buds Gun Shop looks like the place to go with their great pricing compared to the competition. But due to the cost I feel inclined to ask: Does this gun ship new along with case, warranty, etc? Or is it used?

Author: Timothy W.
Q: Am drooling over the Rock Island 45s, are most of the Parts for this interchangeable with regular 1911 parts? And also, if I get this it will be my first time Ordering from Buds, do they have a hand inspect option before shipping to check for flaws in the weapon?
Author: Benjamin R.
(3) ANSWERS
A: yes you can customize this 1911
Author: William L.
A: Benjamin about 90% of the parts are interchangeable with the 1911. Buds does not have a "hand pick" option or open or modify new firearm packages. If you find anything you don't like on a new firearm, just refuse transfer for a suitable replacement or refund.
Author: James G.
A: 100% of the parts for this pistol are 1911 parts. There are no proprietary parts like on Springfield (mainspring housing, spring and strut). Some parts, such as the safety lever, mainspring housing or beaver tail will require minor fitting which is not unusual.
