RIA-USA is Launching American-Made Sporting Pistol at SHOT Show 2023.
The RIA 5.0 promises to be a revolutionary game-changer among American-made firearms and features a patented RVS recoil system that’s engineered to maximize barrel mass and linear movement for very soft recoil.
The firearm’s barrel sits deeper into the bore axis so the muzzle stays flat under fire, which allows for faster target acquisition in rapid fire situations. To enhance ergonomics and recoil control, the 5.0 has a two-piece modular grip frame that combines the flexibility of polymer in the grip with the control and durability of a full-length aluminum receiver.
The RIA 5.0 is really an engineering marvel .It’s an extremely shootable sporting pistol with a meticulously engineered trigger system. Best of all, we’re proud to say it’s made entirely in the U.S.A.
Martin Tuason, President and CEO of parent company Armscor/Rock Island Armory
The 5.0 will have a special release of serial numbers 1 through 100 equipped with C-More sights as well as a release of 100 additional models with iron sights.
