Rock Island GI Standard CS 45 ACP 7 Round Pistol, Parkerized – 51416

Great quallity and value for a 1911 compact. As accurate as I am which means excellent potential in the hands of an expert.

I was impressed with the quality, this Rock island compact is worth the money and has room for upgrades without breaking the bank,very pleased.

My first 1911. Been running a Glock 19. Not hard to get used to higher caliber and compact design. Accurate out of the box. Cycled approx 100 rounds flawlessly.

Fit and finish are excellent and It will accept any 7 rd. (or larger) 1911 mag. The included 7 rd. Act Mag is also top quality. Sights are standard 1911, so if you're planning on changing them, the rear sight is best changed with a high-quality sight pusher. But the front sight should be changed by a gunsmith as it will require a staking tool. Also, because there's no barrel bushing, be aware that the take down is slightly different from that of a standard 1911. The included instruction manual

fit and finish very good....trigger crisp and clean....cycled hundreds of round with out any problems....very nice little gun for the money.

Great price on a solid compact 45. Feels good in the hand . Added a set of Pearce grips and feels even better. A cuple sets of grips plates for looks . 7 rounds is decent considering the size, accepts larger mags but wont sit flush. Overall great reliable 45 just remeber its the compact/officers size when looking for accessories. Wont be disappointed if your able to find one in stock (besides ammo availability).

Love the gun and we'll perform. First 5 round little difficult and jamming but after first mag, works smooth. Excellent and great price.

Havent shot in a range yet. Feel sturdy enough to absorb recoiling force, I think. Not yet able to push the pin to take off the slide stop.

It is a very nice gun, A little bit heavy for a 45 but not that bad,I have not shot it just yet. maybe this week-end. I really looks good in the day light, just what I was looking for, that wood grip makes the gun. I will know more when I get to shot it.

Exactly what I wanted, great price and great service. The CS is smaller than you might think it is. A very nice, concealable size

I have long wanted a 1911, but didn't want to pay a lot. During the gun/ammo shortage of 2021, I saw this one in the store and snagged it immediately! Glad I did! It's been a great little shooter. I'm still in the break-in period and have the occasional failure-to-feed, but that is happening less and less as time goes on. Yesterday, I ran Hornaday 230 gr XTP, Winchester 230 white box hollow points, Federal Hydrashok 230gr and Winchester 230 gr FMJ through it. I had no problems with either hollow

good gun, good price and accurency is so good of you are New in guns and don't bróker you bank this is the perfect gun

It is everything I thought it would be. Very nice. It is slightly heavier than I expected, but that's okay. I can't wait to try it at the range.

A bit jumpy with the smooth wood grips. I ordered rubber grips from Rock Island that took care of that. 200 rounds so far, 0 miss feeds.

It is a solid pistol" Very fun to shoot have no issues with whatsoever. I'm totally satisfied with my purchase".

Great 1911 for the price. I compared another 1911 brand that cost $500 more but the Rock Island trigger was better. The only thing I would change would be the sights. My old eyes have a hard time seeing them. I read how others touched them up with some fabric paint so I did that and they work fine now.

Smooth and compact. Nice feel. Only thing was for me, the handgun was pretty dry. No grease or anything. Was also missing a gun lock which was purchased in store without any problems. Overall, I am satisfied with my purchase.

I have had mine for a year now. It is my carry gun 90 percent of the time. I like the weight of it and the feel. I changed the grips right away to ruber ones that wrap around and love them. If I could I would get the 9mm also for my wife for her to cary. Mine is a .45acp.

I could never truly understand the almost cult following that owners have of RAI 1911’s have. I am a fanatic now. They are not like the sexy looking Kimber’s or Wilson Combat 1911’s. Honestly there really not all that attractive at all. BUT you don’t marry a pistol. You carry it in hopes you never have to use it but need to feel it’s going to perform and perform flawlessly if you do. Well I am throughly amazed for under $500 I have shelved my Springfield and other high end carry pieces

Love the pistol but wants to fight going back into battery about 6 times after less than 100 rounds. For now I’ll keep shooting and cleaning. Be advised it’s got some weight for its size but feels very reassuring on your hip. I did change the grips for thinner rubber ones for my small hand size.
