I ran across an RIA officer frame 1911 at a gun show earlier this month. Ever since that happened I have been haunted by a desire for one of these smaller framed beautys.

Can anybody recomend another 1911 in the officer frame size for less than $500. I honestly never knew these small(er) 1911s existed untill this month.

I had seen the EMP and some Para Ordance small frames. I just thought those were more a novelty thing. Now that I know that it isn't some novelty trick I'm nearly obsessed.

I've even got a few cosmetic changes in mind that I am excited about. It'll be a long term project, but I can't afford a large initial outlay of cash.

Any help is appreciated.
