So, supposedly on p 119 of "Combat Arms" there is an AD of the June issue of "Shooting Times" (confused yet?) with the pistol on the cover. Oh, and supposedly Ruger has a new pistol announcement on the 18th. Coincidence?
I am a little disappointed that it isn't built on the Zytel/polymer frame like the P345. This would reduce the weight, give you replaceable backstraps, add checkering to frontstrap, etc. That surely would have made it stand out (and also piss off the 1911 purists). Oh well, the purists have yet another 1911 to chose from. At least it doesn't have front cocking serrations.
Anyway, here is a pic of the pistol...(click to enlarge)
That leaves remarkably few that do not make a 1911. HA! When I bought my first one in 1990 people made fun of me because of the "wonder-nine" craze and said that the 1911 and 45ACP were done. Double-HA!
