Whaddya'll think?



Just got in my first SA 1911.  Although I own several Kimbers and a Colt, I've wanted a Springer for several years.  I waited just under 6 months for this MC Operator to come in and I have to say.   SWEET!  The moment I got her home I removed the ILS MSH and replaced it with a WC SS Arched MSH with magwell.  I also scrapped the Pachmyres for a pair of VZ Operator II's.  Some think I'm crazy, but I also put some 3M grip tape on the frontstrap.  It's a very personal choice that I've been happy with for years on other pistols, but I digress.  I took her to the range two days after pick-up (Damn school delays!) and just wanted to break her in (not shooting for accuracy).  I was thoroghly impressed.  I fed her 50 rounds of 230 FMJ followed by 32 rounds of Georgia Arms 185gr JHP and she was FLAWLESS!  Pics follow.  Lemme' know whatcha think and if you could, who makes the BEST OWB, leather holster for this particular beauty.

Also, who makes the best threaded barrel for the 1911?  I think I'd like another can, too!

Congrats.  Personally, not too fond of railed 1911's, but that is really a nice looking gun.  You won't be disappointed with SA.
