Newest acquisition, Tisas 1911a1 Service. Not too shabby at all for $299. Nice case, two 8-rd mags, wrench, and cleaning kit.
No complaints.

So this Ronin, in 9mm is also with @Velzey getting a caliber conversion to .38 Super, or what I like to refer to as 9mm magnum…

Thats a nice looking 1911, I've been thinking about buying one of the service models to go along with my Duty version just for nostalgia's sake and you can't beat the price for what you get.

More cowbell will fix it. You know what I'm talkin' about...

 

[deadeye]

Is it me, or does that look longer than 5"?

Your ol lady said NO!

 

[solv3nt]

Your ol lady said NO!

I specifically said "look longer".

HARDBALLER! What a great name for a 1911. Rare piece. How's it shoot?

Not just a HARDBALLER, but a LONGSLIDE HARDBALLER!!!

GO long or be ready for female disappointment.

After some work to remove the galling of the soft stainless and using gun grease, mine works great.

I forgot there was a Hardballer that wasn't a long slide. I've heard about them for years, but like a Coonan, I've never seen one in person. I'd rather have the Longslide, just because. I'll bet the velocity increase is noticeable.

Ex-wife has one of those, after I convinced her she needed to carry for her job (court reporter).
Since the whole COVID/WFH gig, she's needed it a lot less, but still carries. It sleeps on the nightstand...

Punches holes like a dream - accurate as hell, what with that longer sight radius. Had some issues with it not locking back upon empty a coupla years ago, and finally figured out that the mags needed new springs. Local gunsmith gifted me the right springs, and I was off to the races again.

I have no idea what the MV might be, since I've never chrono'ed it. Would like to know myself...

Paul Harrell did a video on just that, specifically with HP bullets. The velocity difference between 5" and 6" barrels was insignificant HOWEVER it was just enough to push some bullets that had trouble expanding fast enough to expand. Those videos converted me to the 185 grain .45 camp, possibly to 200 grain.

I also just bought once exactly like that. My last 4 are 8202, Wonder who's is older? And by how much.

 

[jkor]

mine is 6973. bought it about 6 months ago. I installed a conventional recoil spring in it, installed a regular steel firing pin, and all related springs.
