It's supposed to be 100% American Made. I believe there is a dedicated website.

www.1911r1.com (http://www.1911r1.com)

It looks good, feels good, and has functioned flawlessly so far. It is accurate, with a light trigger pull, but there is a lot of travel in the trigger. It has twice as much travel as I'd like it to have. You pull back and back and back before it fires. I examined two of these, and they were both like this.

Congrats on the new 1911. It looks like a beauty..It is rare to get a good trigger out of the box, these days. Shoot it some and see where it goes. You can always have a trigger/action job done on it.
I am waiting for a P220 Sig Carry .45. Enjoy your new toy..Mike

Congrats on a fine gun. I'm trying real hard to help the economy by getting a Ruger SR1911, the only problem is I can't find one without getting shafted on gunbroker.
