I'm assuming Rem does a cast frame and slide? Have you gotten a chance to run it suppressed, and if so how did it function?

Full article here.

A full-size 1911, the R1 has a 5-inch barrel, weighs 38 ounces and is 8.5-inches long. Magazines provided with the pistol are of the seven-round variety, giving the R1 a total capacity of eight rounds with a loaded chamber. It has a satin black-oxide finish, checkered walnut stocks and 3-dot combat sights. The R1 has three safeties: the thumb safety, the grip safety and a firing-pin block safety located inside the slide. The pistol's frame is investment cast carbon steel and the slide is forged carbon steel.

Nothing wrong with a well cast frame; in fact, to solve the problems of cracking frames in .40 S&W Hi Powers; they went from the original forged frames to a stronger cast frame.

Rugers are cast frame 1911s.

I haven't bought the suppressor yet.

Probably going with a Griffin Revolution 45
