Springfield Ronin AOS Semi-Automatic Pistol 9mm Luger 5" Barrel (1)-9Rd Magazine Wood Grips Blued Steel Slide Stainless Steel Finish
Featuring an unyielding commitment to strength, reliability and quality, the Ronin 1911 combines a legacy of service with the features modern shooters demand. Strength is a core element of the Ronin line, with all models featuring forged steel slides, hammer-forged barrels, and forged frames. The steel slide features a beautiful hot salt bluing finish that contrasts nicely against the forged stainless steel frame of the 5" model and the forged alloy frame of the 4.25" and EMP model, the latter of which features a satin aluminum Cerakote finish. Designed and built for a lifetime of service, the Ronin family of pistols offers 1911 enthusiasts a highly refined handgun with unparalleled durability and strength. Now, Springfield Armory has taken the precision and shootability of the 1911 and added modern optics integration direct from the factory. Developed in collaboration with Agency Arms, the Agency Optic System (AOS) employs a series of plates fitting a wide variety of today's most popular optics following the RMR, Shield, Delta Point Pro, and Docter footprints.

The information below comes from our Gun Caliber Dictionary and is for
general reference only. It does not describe the specifications of this
particular item.
The 9mm Luger (9X19mm, Parabellum, P08) was developed in Germany in 1902. Widely used in both world wars, it is the most popular pistol cartridge in the world, now widely used by innumerable law enforcement agencies and militaries (including our own) in both pistols and submachineguns. The controversy over its "stopping power" will never go away, but its attribute is that it is much easier to shoot accurately than larger cartridges with greater power...but more recoil. Advancements in bullet design for law enforcement and personal defense have narrowed the gap considerably. The 9mm Luger is a world standard, chambered by virtually all makers of semiautomatic pistols, with a myriad of factory loads. The most standard is probably a 115-grain load at 1160 fps, with common bullet weights ranging from 95 to 147 grains, and +P loads at higher velocity.
