Rock River Arms Polymer 1911

[josquin]

Came across this on a link from the 1911 Forum. Not in production yet and I'm not sure I'd buy one myself but it sounds interesting nonetheless.

There.. I better not hear anyone complain that it isn't big enough!

 

[josquin]

That's the one. Pity you couldn't find a larger pic, though...

Does this mean Glock and 1911 shooters will finally find some common ground and stop the everlasting bickering?

Or maybe Glock will eventually come out with a 1911

Isn't Polymer just a fancy word for PLASTIC???

Well, the proper derogatory term is "Tupperware™", but yes.

I have both Glocks and 1911s, but I would never get a plastic 1911

 

[CRAZYLOCH]

WT@.... Ok i own polymers etc, but the 1911 is meant to be STEEL!!! Not plastic, composite, carbon fiber etc etc...

Just good old STEEL! I will NOT accept that freakish creation

Eww, yuck.

[josquin]

OK, OK, I apologize for even mentioning it!

Marstar has been carrying BULL guns for a while they are basically a plastic doublestack 1911s. Pretty sure Kimber has a model as well. So its nothing new really.

 

[newshot]

Nothing new, but equally offensive each time.

 

[DelvinJohnston]

Are you selling that.

Rock River used to produce some of the very finest precision ‘bullseye’ match 45’s - high prices, never exported to Canada as far as I know, but capable of inch and a half ten round groups at fifty yards. And for those who missed that whole phase, high capacity 1911s using combination polycarbonate with steel insert frames were around as far back as the early 1990’s .

Kimber made a poly 1911 years ago called the bp ten . Had a double stacked mag to hold 10 rds. I had one, had no issues with it.
