. Just wondering what you guys know about this pistol and how much it's worth, thinking about getting one. Thanks Sent from my iPhone using Ruger Forum
It's worth what one will pay. It's not a Ruger thing other than it's a SR1911. The engraving, grips, etc all all done after the fact by an outside source. Personally, all that stuff doesn't add much if any value unless it's done by one of the well, known and respected engravers/grip makers.
A gun whose fair market value over replacement cost is contingent on it being left new in the box as a collector's item. Shooting it and using it would likely decrease the value unless you're a celebrity and authenticate it.
