Welp I did it, traded off my glock (fanboys grap pitch forks and light torches).... picked up a springfield 1911 mil spec.

 

[goinggreyfast]

Niiiiiice!!! (Glad you got rid of that paperweight in the process too.)

"XD is the way to be!!!"

Welcome to the Springfield/.45 faimly!!!!!! You wont be disapointed with "old slabsides" but be warned you cant stop with one. By the time ya get that one broke in you'll be looking for the next one.

 

[Armed-N-Ready]

Yep, welcome to the club.

It has been around for a hundred years or so. Your first 1911 is just that .... your first.

Got rid of a glock 26(amazing gun! Just too small for me)

Btw, your right I'm already thinking of getting a 1911 with a rail lol

 

[Ter]

You made the right decision.

 

[modelflyer2003]

I have a Glock 26 and a 1911. I have never parted with a firearm. I love both of them. I think they both have their place in my life.

 

[HighStrung]

You're gonna love your Springer

 

[Stschil]

So, you ran out of koolaid?

Congrats, I am jealous! That's a good lookin' pistola

 

[LPPOsecurity]

Nice gun, just got my first 1911 a couple weeks back and already lookin for another one, prolly a smaller carry 1911

 

[45fan]

I love my 1911's. They carry well, I shoot them better than any other handgun I own, and the weight is reassuring on my belt.

I do carry a Glock 26 some times though, only because there are times I just dont want to subject my 1911 to being covered in sweat, and possibly getting rusty from being in my waist band for hours on end on a hot summer day.

 

[jayhawk]

That's a sweet looking 1911. Congrats.

 

[sshelton]

Thanks you all, it rides so nice in the holster!! Your right the waight is some what of a reasurance. Def. Thinking of a compact for carry though.

 

[glock19man]

that is a nice looking firearm

 

[Fordtough25]

I was looking at that on armslist I think, beautiful 1911!! Glad you like it and I also just got rid of my Glock to get a different pistol. Think I am going to go with a Beretta 92FS. Enjoy!

 

[shooter1054]

I got my first 1911 a few weeks ago too. I did however keep my XD40sc for carry. I love shooting the 1911 at the range, but it is just too big and heavy for EDC. You have a great looking 1911. Good call.

 

[LordTio3]

Hey... to each his own. You certainly can't go wrong with any model the Springfield 1911. Good choice man. I'll mourn for your Glock.

Nice 1911A! Now you can start shopping for some "Grim Reaper" custom grips, and a lot of magazines. You can find quality 8rd and 7rd mags everywhere. Holsters are a plenty also. Try ball then some HP's to ensure reliability for carry. Springfields are a good score. Have fun.
