 Hey there friends, thanks for checking in. Today we're looking at a new release from Springfield Armory called the Ronin 1911 and 10 millimeter now they released the Ronin. I would say between five and seven months ago and 45 ACP they have the government size with the five-inch barrel the Commander size with the four and a quarter inch barrel and here we have the 10 millimeter that was just released people who love 10 millimeter Would certainly dig this handgun kept the same Aesthetics and many of the same features, but chambered it in 10 millimeter and it does come with an eight round magazine and the same look that we have known with the Ronin hammer ford stainless frame and Slide the stainless frame matte finish slide all hammer ford You can see that the top of the slide has more of a matte black finish cuts down on the glare If shooting in the sunlight and a beautiful look to it laminate grips and It does not have an ambidextrous Thumb safety people have varying opinions about that. You know a lot of people like it Of course lefties like it, but other people say I don't want anything to do with a Ambidextrous thumb safety so this one definitely does not have that but we do have an unloaded firearm what it does have that we would expect okay here we have a skeletonized trigger But a five pound trigger pull right there, which is so nice with 1911's and That's what keeps you on target front serrations fiber optic front sight and An all metal two dots serrated black two dot rear sight They call this a tactical sight because it has that ledge there you can charge it off of A belt buckle a boot a table whatever you needed to put it right there and charge the gun if your Weak side hand is rendered useless for any reason Or injured or anything else, but check that out Flat mainspring housing. All right, and there you have your your grip safety memory bump right there extended beaver tail skeletonized hammer five pound trigger And a beautiful look to it. I like that. I like the way the two-tone sets off. I know I'm getting a lot of glare there But it also has a GI style guide rod what that is is a partial length guide rod and People have their opinions as to which is better in the truth is a GI style guide rod is The original 1911 that's what that had so it has has years of Reliability behind it, but then they have the full length guide rods that many people know many companies are making 1911s with a full length guide rod one thing you'll notice is that the full length guide rod that cap that goes over the recoil spring is hollowed out so that the guide rod Can be seen okay and go through you charge the slide like that over here. You won't see that at all Okay, and lock that back there. You won't see a guide rod there. Now if you look at the cap there, that is serrated black All right, but the GI style guide rod goes about this big and Some people will have their preferences. I will say that I have not noticed with any 1911 that I've shot a difference between the full length guide rod or The GI guide rod and I have both All right, here's another full length guide rod in the 1911 both these are 45 and then over here. We've got 10 millimeter which I'm having trouble finding ammo for But I'm going to get this to the range and I can't wait. It's a beautiful looking gun and The MSRP on this is 849 now if you look across the Ronin line There's actually a whole line now it was just introduced, but now there's a whole line They've got primarily 45s with the government size the four and a quarter inch commander size and now the full size five-inch barrel 1911 and 10 millimeter laminate grips they call that the Cross cannon grip a insignia consistent with the spring field line Nice engraving there And a beautiful looking gun but one would think this is probably heavier because it's built For that 10 millimeter load. So let's check that out. All these are unloaded pretty sure I Showed that but let's see the unloaded weight. We're looking at two pounds seven and one eighth ounce Let's see. Here's one in 45 All right, go ahead show clear there And that's actually about two ounces heavier and 45 so we're not seeing a great variance there How about this one? Also in 45 this one's actually chambered in 45 super as well To two pounds six and three eighths ounces. So a little bit lighter. So it's not Any heavier the specs themselves are the same. So if you have a 1911 Form fit holster whether let leather or kydex. It'll work just fine with this 10 millimeter model And it is a beauty. I Think it's very sharp looking and a very nice sight picture as well Now the one thing that I've been studying up quite a bit on and I've been thinking a lot about this as we enter The winter months many of us are already in the winter months where we have the winter jackets on you know my Just about my whole CCW lifestyle. I've been stuffing guns in my pants Why not use outside the waistband holsters and something with something like this, you know Here we have a chance to carry more comfortably outside the waistband we already have cover with the winter jackets and You can use a full-size handgun like this You know two pounds seven and a quarter ounce or whatever and still be comfortable I already have a holster being made up for this Multi-holsters, and I'm looking forward to it and I'm gonna give it a try all these people say I carry 1911s And I was never that guy until now. I'm gonna take this to the range get some good range time Make sure it shoots the way. I think it's going to shoot and I have a good feeling it's gonna be great and I'm not carry it for the experience of carrying a 1911 and I Think it's gonna be great. I think it's gonna be fun and I think This range time is gonna be a blast if I can get the ammo need to do that And I'll take you guys along to show you how it works if you like videos like this, please subscribe and share I always appreciate thumbs up button.
