Let me know: Ronin Range Officer 5" 9mm

[BassCliff]

Hi,

Piece of advice, if you got the Range Officer in 9mm, change the recoil spring to 12lbs, the one that’s in it is a 9lb spring, to weak, my Range Officer Operator in 9mm had issues till I switched the spring.

I read about a few owners who've done that. Thank you for the confirmation. Where do you suggest getting parts?

Maybe next is a 1911 in .22LR. There are other calibers too. "One of each", ya know?

Hello my friends,

As you know, I'm a "one of each" kind of guy. I'm also a "bang for your buck" kind of guy. In addition to that, I'm a Springfield fanboi. That being said, I've been wanting to add a 1911 in 9mm to my collection, a little brother to my Garrison. I've read some stuff on, for example, the 1911forum.com, and saw everything from "it runs great" to "the trigger sucks" to "I did this and that to it and now it's fine".

I trust you guys.

GAG has a good price for the full size Ronin. I really want to order it while it's on "clearance". It's there a better 9mm 1911 for $600? Did somebody say "Tisas Raider"?

TISAS Double Stack Duty or Carry. Very good guns.

Hi,

Sure, a 2011 is also on my "one of each" list.

Hi,

You guys are great!

It seems the clearance price is because this model has been discontinued.

That makes me want to buy it even more.

Ok I think I’m following what u were asking now, Cliff.
Not actually the Ronin, but the Range Officer ?

PSA calls it a Ronin Range Officer in their ad...

https://palmettostatearmory.com/springfield-ronin-range-officer-9mm-5-9rd-pistol-black-ss-px9119l-adj.html

This SA (discontinued) page is simply Range Officer Target...

1911 Range Officer® Target 9mm Handgun - Springfield Armory

Looking up the part number PX9119L on the SA website finds a few Ronin in 9mm, but it looks like none of those have the adjustable rear sight.

Ha! Maybe once it gets here I can look up the serial number and find out exactly what it is. Maybe it's a special "custom" model made from leftover parts.
