My initial impression of the gun was that the fit and finish on the metal was outstanding. The grips and screws, not so much so. Grips and screws will be upgraded so that's a minor concern. The pistol feeds well, shoots well and the 22TCM is a real attention grabber and is fun to shoot. The change over to the included 9mm barrel and spring is straightforward and easy. I experienced no problem shooting or feeding either caliber.

All in all, I'm impressed with the RIA brand. I have found it to be a well executed pistol and a value in the marketplace. Accessories are somewhat limited and there's not a lot of robust information about aftermarket items (grips, screws, magazines, etc.) but as more of these make their way to the public, that should improve.

Bud's was a bit slower on delivery on this pistol that I've found in the past. I attribute that to limited supply of these pistols. It was worth the wait and, once again, Bud's delivered well.

The biggest problem I've found with this pistol is that, since this is my first 1911 style pistol, now I want another one in a different caliber. I'll certainly consider another Rock Island Armory pistol.

I finally got my micromag in last week, and it is way more gun than I expected. It was very accurate out of the box all I did was run a bore snake through it and load the magazine, and then had a blast shooting it. The fit is very nice and the finish is decent. This little booger has some intense muzzle flash! If you want a gun comparable to a five seven this is it! Payed for my gun on Saturday and it arrived at my ffl on Tuesday morning. Bud's was great. I will buy from them again.

Have not shot pistol yet, but initial review; finish is actually nice, slide and trigger operation is smooth. The frame is not smooth on the edges in fact around the grip area are actually some sharp edges. not cutting sharp just noticible. However this is not a $1000 1911! Overall I like the gun, handles well, feels well balanced and smooth. Al of the metal has square cut edges with no smoothing so if you don't mind that, I would highly recommend. This is my 4th purchase from Bud's, great as always. Bud's is my gun store!
