Thanks for the comments guys...
Overall, I like my P2000, the 1911 is new to me, but i'm totally loving that I must say. The P2000 has about 1600 rounds through her, and is one of the first P2000's to be imported to the states... it has a SUB 1000 serial number. The p2000 is ergo-friendly with its interchangable backstraps. I recommend if you're going to get one, to get the v3 DA/SA (what I have) with decocker and not the LEM, unless of course you're an officer that is required to have DAO...
The Carbine has a White Oak Precision/Armament Midlength stainless steel match grade barrel chambered in .223 Wylde with a 1:9 twist. It has been fluted under the handguards as you can picture in the photos, additionally it was beadblasted for the matte finish. The custom work was done By ADCO Firearms which is a dealer here on ARFCOM and I must add that they do excellent work with great turnaround time and awesome customer service. they have always been quick to answer any questions that i have had before AND after my purchase from them.
The Springfield will be sent off to Tripp Research for some customization soon :-) I Can't wait. I'll be getting a SS Mil-Spec to keep me company while its away
