Just got one at the local GS. I checked it out and I am very impressed with the fit of the slide and the overall feel for the price. $639. But there is something about it from a looks standpoint that is just doesn't do it for me, but for all the Ruger people it looks like they are availible and at a killer price for the quality!

Mossberg 835 Grand Slam

Can you elaborate on what is wrong with the looks? Was it something with the way the slide was milled? My old SA had a mis-milled slide (the top radius wasn't centered) and it bugged the cr#p out of me.Originally Posted by Dragman

If the come out with a CCO version I will be ALL over it!

I'm with you on the aesthetics just being...off.
I think it's just that certain things are just too....
The sights are a little too tall, the hammer is a little too thin, the serrations are a little too wide. Things that by themselves don't really matter, but together, they really add up.
I also never cared for an all-stainless gun with black backstrap and beavertail. Black sights are pretty much unavoidable, but the rest should have some consistency.
I'm sure the gun is just fine, but I want to like to look at a gun, and the SR1911 just doesn't do it for me. But looks are purely subjective. I'm sure plenty of people will/do love it.

Yeah, that looks a little odd to me as well.

Personally I like everything about it except the sights. I think it's nice looking and for the right price I would pick one up in a heartbeat,
Vermont does not issue Permit/Licenses to Carry a Concealed firearm. Vermont allows anyone
who can legally own a firearm to carry it concealed without a permit of any kind.

Well others have already sumed up the looks.

Dragman I do not see what you mean about different? It looks great. Is the two tone throwing you off?

I like the looks, except for the black slide stop and thumb safety. It gives it cobbled-together-from-spare-parts kinda look?

Y'know, I actually think it looks better in your pics than in the promotional ones. Plus, the left side looks better than the right, IMHO. Seeing more of the contrast pieces makes a difference.
Is the hammer lightened? It looks milled out. Or that a trick of the light?

It's not bad, but there's just something about a clean, smooth 1911.
I always loved the sexy look of the Dan Wesson Valor, or the Heritage.
