Sportsmans Warehouse has the Remington R1 1911 on sale for $599. I checked Buds Guns and got a quote of $610 shipped. This is the blued, full size 1911 with fixed sights and checkered walnut stocks. Remington started offering the 1911 last year IIRC.

Does anyone know if it's actually made here in the states and by Remington or some other manufacturer? I've got $100 worth of gift cards so for $499 + tax it looks like a pretty sweet deal on a new 1911. Gonna stop by the store tomorrow and see if they have any left and check it out in person.
