The 1911 itch has hit me . Had what I believe to have been an old DCM rebuild for years but sold it during the mid-1990's .

I'm considering getting one of the Rock Island 1911 GI clones. .45 is tempting but my wife is 5-2 and 112 pounds . It could become her's if she likes it . Any tips on these 9mm's , what magazines work best , springs to use , will they run Corbon 125 HP out of the box , etc?
