Picked up a used one this weekend. Slight holster wear. It is like yours with the older GI looks, shorter sights, different hammer. Shot it and it shoots great. No problems at all.
I already had one but my daughter has been shooting my other RIA 1911 9mm so I picked the new (used) one up for her.
Here is the my older one along with the RIA compact 45. Personally I like the stand out roll marks.
