RIA (Rock Island Armory) 1911s are clones of the well known and widely respected US Military G.I. M1911-A1, the standard issue US Service pistol from 1911 to 1985. [Campbell, B. " [http://www.sightm1911.com/lib/review/RIA.htm The Rock Island Armory Guns] " The Sight .45 ACP website] Most RIA models are targeted for the low-end price point of the 1911 pistol market and are basic entry level MIL-SPEC versions of the 1911, [syd, [http://www.sightm1911.com/lib/review/RIA_M1911A1.htm “ Rock Island Armory M1911A1”] The Sight .45 ACP website] however, the RIA Tactical, Compact, and Match models offer additional semi-custom high end features. The Compact model features a skeletonized hammer and beavertail grip safety while the Tactical model also adds a target grade hammer and trigger as well as an ambidextrous safety, and enhanced contrast combat sights. Armscor is a ISO 9001 certified compliant company which manufactures Rock Island pistols using CNC (Computer Numerical Control) equipment.
