1911 RANGE OFFICER® CHAMPION™ 9MM
Sigma4506:
Just Bought this 1911 9mm -its like WOW - This is my first 1911 and i am really impressed with this 4 inch , take down was pretty easy and for me a little tricky getting the Slide Stop pin back in -but after reading and slow and steady wins the race =i got it down ,Very very accurate little sucker- this will now be my new Carry as its really not much more heavier or bigger than my Glock 19 - Warning -Do Not Try this firearm as your pockets will be 770.00 $ lighter ,
Just Bill:
I love 1911's. I have built or repaired 3 for myself and worked on many more. I have a Browning HiPower, which had the same designer, but always wanted to build a 9MM 1911. Who is the maker?? All steel or steel slide plastic frame??

Bill i have a Question is there a way to tell what kind of Grips i can use ? Height is 5.5 not sure if thats full size or ? to me most look like they will all fit with exception of compacts or 5 inch height ones, Thanks
Just Bill:
If the frame is true to 1911 specs, any grips for a 1911 should fit. I am partial to hogue grips which can be one piece, but fancy woods are also nice. I tried Hogue one piece grip on my Sig P220(retired LEO gun) and did not like them. Switched back(for now) the police hard grips that came on it. Grips are a personal thing and can make or break your proper hold.
