If it is truly unfired and comes with all that, it is a bargain. The Police Discount price is $688 for the gun and two mags.
A buddy has one and has run probably 700 of his mid power reloads through it. He loves it and it runs with both his Wilson and Checkmate mags. I do not think he has tried any HP ammo though. |

They make a RO Champion, which is Springfields version of the commander. It is a 4" rather than the normal 4.25" barrel, but full size frame. I had one that I recently sold. It was a good pistol, I just didnt shoot it much. Sounds like a good deal. I sold mine for $700 without extras, and you are looking at about $100 in just ammo with that deal.

Didn't buy it, after several E-Mails with the guy and him saying it was unfired numerous times I show up to look at the gun and it had obviously been shot, when I said that he didn't argue a bit, I asked if he could adjust the price and he was unwilling so I decided against it.

Even if the gun was fired 5,000 times it was a decent deal.
Why sellers try and pass unfired off is beyond me. |

It was probably a fair deal, but I was more miffed by the fact that I asked him numerous times about unfired and he said it was, just made me feel bad about the whole thing.

Springfield makes the range officer compact and champion, the only difference is one has a officer and the other has a full-size frame.
If you want the full-size frame, I would get the champion operator instead which has a rail. If you're insisting on the range officer family, I would get the range officer compact. |

So the Champion has the full size frame with just a 4" slide/barrel?? a full size frame would be better for me because of larger hands.
