Ronin factory plus#

I decided to use Wilson Combat Factory Plus stainless-steel, standard-size grip bushings and stainless-steel standard slotted grip screws. I replaced the wood grips with Mil-Tac G10 Diamond Grips.ДЄnother change I made was the grip screws and grip screw bushings. When I got the pistol back from John, I decided to do the simplest thing myself - changing the grips.

Another upgrade was the addition of a Smith & AlexanderВ magwell. So for the time being, I chose to leave it alone and decide on a texture for both in the future. I picked this because I didnвЂ™t want a checkered magwell because at this time and was not sure what texture or treatment I wanted on my front strap. John also fit a Smith & Alexander stainless, flat, uncheckered magwell. Heck, even John said the pistol didnвЂ™t really need all those parts, but it would be a very nice custom touch! Harrison Custom added their Extreme Service Extended MagazineВ Catch. John replaced the rear and front sights, the ignition system, slide stop, trigger, thumb safety and magazine catch. Harrison Custom installed their Extreme Service Rear Sight on the RoninВ 1911. Before it was all over, I had him customize my Ronin above and beyond what I initially thought I wanted. However, John mentioned he had customized one of these for another customer, and my curiosity got the best of me. The Harrison Custom Extreme Service Thumb Safety was added to theВ Ronin. So, clearly, I could take a very light touch to it with this process. Upon receiving my pistol, John immediately complimented the fit and finish on the Ronin, and mentioned how tightly fit and how well it was put together. I sent my Ronin to uber gunsmith John Harrison in Kennesaw, Georgia. Harrison Custom installed their Extreme Service Front Sight and installed a gold bead in their front sightВ assembly. While I had a pretty austere plan for customization of the Ronin at the beginning, I canвЂ™t leave things well enough alone when IвЂ™m left to my own devices. Well, if you are weak like I am, all good plans come to an abrupt end when options are put in front of you. But, I love to tinker with my guns, and the affordable price of the pistol made customizing the Ronin a real option. It has forged parts for strength as well as ton of вЂњcustom-gradeвЂќ features.ДЄs a result, I was very happy with the pistol as it was. To be honest, what you get out of the box with this pistol for an MSRP of just $849 (to find out GunSpotвЂ™s take on a вЂњcheapвЂќ 1911, click here) is amazing.

Yamil had Harrison Custom install their long вЂњTri-CavвЂќ trigger in the Ronin 1911В pistol. 45 ACP (you can see my Ronin review here), the only thing I wanted to change was the front sight, grips and maybe add an enlarged and extended magwell. But, when I picked up the Springfield Armory Ronin 1911 in. ThereвЂ™s plethora of different custom parts for the 1911-style pistols to fit just about everyoneвЂ™s taste. One of the really cool things about the 1911 pistol is the ease of customization.
