I've been owning and shooting this gun for roughly 5 and a half years. Absolutely great. It feels so good in the hands. I love it so much. Its my first gun ever, so it has always had a special place in my heart. Totally 5/5!

Excellent .45 ACP for the price and Ruger craftsmanship is great! As always online shopping at Budsgunshop is a great experience without any issues and delivery is great and reliable as well.

Hard not to like the 1911, and this one is no exception. It shoots as good as it looks with no issues. Thanks Bud’s!

Purchased this 1911 because I didn’t have one at the time. I have since purchased a Dan Wesson 1911 and a Colt 1911. They all shoot great, but for the money the Ruger SR 1911 is a great buy. I have not had any problems with it at all and I have shot many rounds through it.

Well I've got to say that Bud's delivered my Ruger SR1911 before I even got the tracking number from UPS! I ordered it on a Monday and it arrived at my FFL dealer on Thursday. Bud's has always been great with shipping my guns, but this time they outdid themselves.... Nice work Bud's! This is the 4th or 5th gun (and ammo) that I've purchased from Bud's and the service has been outstanding. I haven't had a chance to shoot my gun yet because of the weather and a lack of available ammo, but I'm looking forward to shooting it within the week. Right now I can only admire it..... it's looks beautiful!

Just received my ruger sr1911 and it is beyond a beauty. I have always wanted a 1911 and chambered in 45 caliber. Comes in a nice ruger box with two stainless steel magazines. The gun itself is just magnificent to hold. I took it immediately to the gun range and put 50 rounds through it with federal ammunition. Nice tight grouping with the best trigger I have felt in a gun. It’s smooth as butter. I was also surprised how the recoil on this .45 is astounding. It doesn’t have the recoils you’d think a .45 caliber gun will have, my 9mm Sig sauer has more recoil. I’m assuming due to the longer barrel. Overall a great purchase and my favorite gun so far. Definitely recommend
Side note. Buds once again delivers as usual. Second time I purchased a gun through buds and second time I’m highly satisfied. Shipping was fast and smooth.

Bud’s processing and shipping was extremely fast. The pistol arrived in just 3-4 days to FFL. The Ruger is very nice and shot extremely accurate out of the box. The frame to slide fitting was a little looser than I anticipated but after reading many reviews is “normal” for these. Very nice trigger. Overall I’m happy with this gun.

Nice pistol, frame and grips are beautiful. Grip safety and trigger are a little cheesy.

Wonderful Handgun!! I have had this ruger as my main pistol for the past 5 years! no manufacture problems! when I first brought it to the range i put 1000 rounds of pmc bronze through it over a month. hand a few loading issues 1 in every 4 would not fully load. Once I changed to 500 rounds of magtech and over 3000 rounds of herters select the previous problem was virtually non existent. Definitely would recommend this firearm, with a lifetime warranty!! Thanks Buds! you have gained a customer for life!!

Of all the guns I own, this one seems to be most everyone's favorite. With practice, I can put the whole mag into a quarter sized group at 7 yards. Never had any issues with this gun- you get what you pay for.

I love my Ruger SR1911. It came on time as well as the ammunition for it. I shoots really nice. I wouldn't change it for the world. I want to thank customer service for everything.
Thank you

I had wanted a 1911 for some time. The Ruger SR1911 5" is a little heavier than other 1911 entries, but in my opinion, it's the best bang for the buck. No issues with Ruger's quality or Bud's delivery. Both were superb.

This is a very nice gun that I have fired over 1000 rounds thru it without any issues. Fits my hand and the trigger is nice (especially after the use its had).
My wife enjoys shooting it because of the grip angle and the easy to see novak sights.

Have received the Ruger SR 1911 pistol, and am really pleased with the overall construction, and value of the firearm. Its overall construction follows the true Ruger line of great firearms. Great design and Great Value. Its just overall a great firearm.

I Love this firearm. I'm fairly new to the handgun world and started with a .38 s&w airweight. A few weeks later I found a great deal on a s&w m&p 9mm. The introduction to semi automatic handguns was a mistake because it made me want something bigger. I found this .45 and I'm glad I did. The day I received the gun I put a hundred rounds through it at the range and I was so glad I bought it. I recommend this to anyone who appreciates semi automatic handguns.

Ruger, Made in the U.S.A.
A beautiful gun to behold.
The SR1911 fits my hands perfactally.
Easy to aim with the three dot sights,
Trigger pull a little tight, but should loosen up with usage.
Do not like the safety on the back of the grip, but its designed well
and works with little effort.
Fires like the 45 auto and hits the target hard.
Love all the aftermarket products, grip choices, sight choices
and even the ten round clip from Ruger.
Thanks Ruger.

Love this 1911 pistol. The trigger is amazing and the gun looks awesome. Ruger did their homework and the gun features all the best qualities of all the 1911’s on the market.
Plus it is a series 70. I recommend it for all 1911 guys and gals out there
