WTS - RIA .38 Super - DFW

Post by carlson1 »

This is a Rock Island Armory Government Model 38 super with one magazine. I have shot exactly 50 flawless rounds through the pistol with no malfunctions at all. This is an accurate and soft shooting pistol. It comes with the original box and paper work.
Price is $400.00 FTF

What is the reasoning behind the .38spr cartridge? Why not just chamber a 1911 in another service cartridge like 9mm or .380acp?

When I shot IPSC,9mm would be scored as a minor caliber and .45 would be scored as major.38 super would make major without the recoil of a .45.I haven't competed in about 5 years,so I don't know what the rules are now.
Nice gun,bump to top.

USPSA still scores 38 Super as major in open class. Limited class requires at least a .40 calibre bullet. I don't know what IDPA rules apply.

IDPA doesn't distinguish between major and minor. Just has to make the minimum power factor. I believe this could be shot in either the ESP or CDP divisions.

No, CDP is .45ACP only.

It certainly can be shot in ESP (only division allowed) and has to make PF of 125.
