Awesome, my first one as well. Youll like it. 2000+ rounds here, zero malfunctions.

Very nice the 1911 is a fine platform. That is a beautiful weapon. I have a SA myself and I think the NM serial ones are outstanding happy shooting

Not my first 1911 by a long shot, but I do have that same gun but in stainless.
I replaced the two piece guide rod first thing.

Enjoy.

Sounds good. My loaded came with the 2 piece and I switched it out for Wilson parts.

Good choice my friend.  The TRP is on my list of possible 1911 purchases.

LOL OP.

Small world.

I just bought the exact same gun, the exact same place, last week.  Still haven't had a chance to shoot it yet though ;)

There is nothing much sexier than a 1911.

Purchased mine on 1/21.  If I remember correctly, I seem to remember the gentleman who grabbed mine from the back saying that it was the last black one back there.  So I think they were probably telling the truth.  I was really on the fence between the Dan Wesson Valor they had and the TRP.  The fact that the DW was just a bit too far out of my price range and that they only had it in Stainless at the time, made me pick the TRP.

I just got to shoot mine last night, took it up to Article ii after work with my wife.  Thats probably the nicest handgun I own now and probably the nicest I've had the opportunity to shoot.  I'm not a very good shot and that thing actually makes me look almost decent  I only had time to put about 50 rounds through it, but so far so good.

Great choice; mine was flawless. I swapped out the guts on the ILS as well as going to a GI plug and guide rod.

I just got this same exact model 2 weeks ago.  I know nothing about 1911-s.  Can you explain about the guide rod and the plug.  I'm gonna have to pull up some YouTube video to learn how to take it apart.  Thanx for any info.
