JohnnyBmore 8 Posted April 17, 2011 Report Share Posted April 17, 2011 I would most likely buy one myself.... Cant stay away from a 1911. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
gregomega 929 Posted April 17, 2011 Report Share Posted April 17, 2011 If it does go for a decent price, I wouldnt mind it being my first 1911 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Unknown Poster 5 Posted June 5, 2011 Report Share Posted June 5, 2011 (edited) A 1911 from redjacket sounds great. Did you notice they only use the saiga's as a platform for most of there builds? You don't have a 1911 yet?? Shame on you, your missing out on one of the best auto's there ever was. I like my CZ85DB and the CZ line of pistols too but the 1911's are awesome too. After owning three bad brand new 1911's in the 70's, 80's and 90's the last 1911 for me was going to be a used norinco. The norinco showed me what all the 1911 hype is all about. I soon after went out and purchased a brand new Auto-ordnance army WW2 copy 1911a1 in 2005. Its been flawless right out of the box for well over 500rds+ now too. At the sametime i purchased a brand new in '05 a Springfield armory G.I. Mil-Spec 1911 and i just shot it after all this time and its been awesome right out of the box too. I don't know why but the label on the green plastic box says G.I. Mil-Spec. It seems my curse of the 3 bad 1911's is broken now. I been reworking my norinco 1911a1 and so far she shoots one clover leaf per mag even with a loose slide to frame fit. I can't beat my orginal $300 investment for a well used norinco. I did install a $59 new barrel and full length guide rod kit w/18# recoil spring from sportsmans guide and a national match IAI barrel bushing $12 and the IAI full wrap around rubber grips $9 from CDNN. I also ramped the disconnector slot on the bottom of the slide. Right now it cycles much faster and smoother too. I started off with all the wilson combat dvd's and the Jerry K 1911 shop manual and his armorers VHS to learn everything i can about the 1911's. Little by little i been buying up all the tools to work on the 1911's too. I had one new 1911 that stove piped for many years and i fixed it by tuning the extractor. There not that hard to work on and make improvements. I figure if i'm going to own them and run them i better know how to repair them when something goes wrong with them. UNKN BTW; The most fun is tweeking my norinco and seeing the success i'm making with it. I fitted the new barrel to the national match barrel bushing and its accurate with 100% lock up with no barrel spring in either direction. I'm no 1911 guru nor will ever be one but i can work on my own 1911's with success. Edited June 5, 2011 by Unknown Poster Quote Link to post Share on other sites

A Norinco 1911 will last forever if you change out a couple of parts. I love mine. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
kresk 10,063 Posted June 6, 2011 Report Share Posted June 6, 2011 A Norinco 1911 is a great starting platform for a really good shooter. You upgrade the internals and wind up with an excellent gun. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
magsite20 1,664 Posted June 6, 2011 Report Share Posted June 6, 2011 (edited) Have to wait and see who's / what components they use or if they do it in house. Other than that, how it's all fitted together that's were it's either a good or a great 1911. I think I have one great 1911 and a couple of real good ones. Doesn't matter in a way all of them can shoot better groups than I can shoot them. Edited June 8, 2011 by 20-Mags Quote Link to post Share on other sites

magsite20 1,664 Posted June 7, 2011 Report Share Posted June 7, 2011 Years ago I got cussed by a gunsmith that I had taken a Norinco slide to for getting some dovetails cut to put better sights on.

Took a Norinco SKS to my 'smith to have the front sight post/bayo lug removed and he broke everything he tried to use to remove the damned thing. Needless to say, I'm still using iron sights... I guess they really make their stuff to last! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

If you made a pistol like the new Ruger SR1911 with a rail in front of the trigger guard. It would a 1911 owners dream, in my opinion. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Bvamp 604 Posted June 10, 2011 Report Share Posted June 10, 2011 how in the hell are you going to do a 7 inch in 10mm "Tony Rumore Special"? the pressures are so far out there on the 10mm, it pushes the frame to the limit with the regular length barrels. that would be impressive, to say the least. hell, totally "Tony" it, and make one in select fire. ...then all you need is a damn buttstock, and you have a rifle.....

I'd port the last two inches of the barrel and top slide to bleed off the pressure then. I had this done to a regular 1911 to control muzzle flip, but I see no reason why it wouldn't work to drop 10mm pressure levels. I'm willing to do some R and D work on it when I finish the project I'm working on now. I think I know someone who can make me a 10mm barrel? Damn, I just sold my underfolding 1911 shoulder stock.

22_Shooter 1,560 Posted June 11, 2011 Report Share Posted June 11, 2011 Here's to hoping it's around the price of the new Ruger 1911. I've been leaning towards that as my first dip into the 1911 world, due to the price and (so far) great reviews. If it is similarly priced, I'd love an RJ 1911.

Red Jacket 329 Posted June 11, 2011 Report Share Posted June 11, 2011 Basic's of the Red Jacket 1911 specs are as follows: 100% American made parts. STI forged carbon steel frame, made in Texas. All models are .45acp 5" government length with ramped barrel. Low profile carry sights with the option of night sights. Our goal is the best 1911 on the market . Prices will reflect final production cost at time of release but will range in the 1500 to 2000 range depending on model and options . Should have pic's and full details next week or so . 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
