1911 under $1000 ??
bkoenig:
I've heard generally good things about the Ruger.
gsd:
i've also heard you'll be waiting for about 6 months to get it due to backorders lol
bbtech:
I have a Ruger and it is a good 1911 for the money. It is not as nice as my Dan Wesson Valor but it costs about 1/3 as much. The Ruger is accurate and so far accepts my reloads without any failures. It doesn't like my Chip McCormick mags for some reason but that is the only problem I have had with it. If you want to stay under $1000 and don't mind the wait I would say that is the way to go.

Greg 58 - Cabela's in La Vista has (or use to have) your Ruger 1911 if you wanted to check it out. Noticed it the other day. Doubt if the Bullet Hole has one to rent for a test drive.
Armed and Humorous - you'r to funny about the comment on Sheels. And your right. The cage annoys me too.
armed and humorous:
I suppose Scheel's wanted to improve security of their handguns after that big theft of a couple years ago, or their insurance company "suggested" the expanded metal cages for their display cabinets. I hesitate to call them display cabinets 'cause you can't see sqaut though the mesh. I used to go there about every week just to look at all the guns, see what was new, or find good sales. I won't even bother going into the handgun section now, and I wrote and told them (never heard back).
The really weird part is that they are breaking the law (in Lincoln anyway) by not having all their guns and ammuntion locked up so that customers can't get access to them without someone from the store helping them. Yet, they only lock up the handguns and handgun ammuntion. I guess if you want to steal a gun to kill someone, you'll have to use a shotgun or rifle.
