Analysis

This was RIA’s early-2000s full-size blued 1911-A1 Standard, sold before the GI Standard name took over the entry Government pistol. Production ran from 2001 through 2008. Later parkerized GI Standard FS guns replaced it. Used examples sell in the same band as other early Armscor Government pistols.
