Looks sharp and shoots even better. SA knows their 1911s and dealing with Buds is always a pleasure.

Amazing 1911. I've got around 600 rounds through it and it gets better and better. There was only one jam that I chalk up to some poor ammunition I was using. Only thing I don't love is the polymer trigger but it's still smooth and crisp. Highly recommend.

The fit and finish s what I expected from Springfield Armory. The gun fires smoothly and accurately. So far pleased with the purchase. It would be nice if this 1911 came with two mags.

This is my first 1911 I have purchased. I hadn’t shot one in a long time but always wanted one. Did a lot of research and it’s a damn fine piece from Springfield. Buds shipped it extremely fast as well. Got to the FFL no issues.

Slide is smooth, and trigger is very light.. the 2 tone color makes it stand out from all the other .45 i spit out over 200 rounds with no issues Springfield makes beautiful reliable hands guns in all calibers.

I've cycled hundred rounds through the Ronin and it hangs up feeding the last round or two every time with all three magazines. Very disappointed.

I really like this pistol. The fiber optic front sight is really easy to pick up. Trigger is fantastic. So far, 100 rounds of 230-grain ball ammo & functioning flawlessly. Have tried a few different ammo manufacturers: Winchester white box, Freedom Munitions, S&B. Buds had the best price I've found on this. Great service as usual.

The fit and finish on this gun is top notch. Shipping speed and communications from Bud's is excellent and hard to beat Bud's price. Well done.

First... Buds Guns had the best price, best service and perfect delivery to my local dealer of choice. Next... the gun is AWESOME... kudos to Springfield armory. I took it to the range first time, out of the box and shot multiple 8 shot groups at 10 yards all less than two inches, then moved the target back and shot multiple 8 shot groups all less than 4 inches at 25 yards. My smile almost broke my face. Kudos to Bud's guns and Springfield armory.

Love this 1911. Accurate, reliable, after the break in period of course. Even then, through the first 500 rounds, I only had 3 FTF, and a handful of FTE. After breaking it down, cleaning it up, and going back, it ate everything I threw at it like a kid in a candy store. Also, first time using Buds. If you're on the fence, I can't recommend them enough. Never wondered where my package was, always sent update emails, and generally top notch service. Not only that, but they're quick! Thanks Buds!

Not as pretty or shiny as presented in images but none the less, over all it looks ok.

My Ronin .45 is a beautiful firearm. I’m quite pleased with the quality and performance. I’m so pleased in fact that I’m looking for another in 9mm. I purchased a burgundy 1761 holster for it, and the contrast makes the gun stand out. My transaction with Buds was fast, easy, and satisfying.

Excellent Firearm! Fit and finish top notch and just a beautiful 1911. Buds gun shop service and pricing 5 star.

Not a lot to say, no surprises and no complaints with the Ronin. Fit and finish were excellent as I expected from Springfield. The thin grips are a plus. If I had point out a CON, it would be the polymer trigger. It works fine, I just prefer a metal trigger. At the range, it preformed without issue. Accuracy was good.
Overall, I'd recommend this and any Springfield 1911 pistol.
