Because of restrictions where I live, I had to get an m1 platform and decided to go with the M1A. Figured I’d shop the look and get a 1911A1, but happened upon the Rock Island Armory GI 1911 for less than 300 bucks.

Will I get a 9 mm pistol? Probably. But I learned to stop worrying and love my inner Fudd. You should too.

    How’s the accuracy on your m1a (is that a socom)?

    I have an older mini-30 that I’d say shoots about 5 inch groups at 100 yards. I’m pleased that it’s relatively lightweight and 30 caliber but I’d like better accuracy.

      I’m still learning to shoot irons indoors but I’ve been managing 2 inch groups at 20 yards using irons
