What could we call it then. Maybe loaded elite?I see no reason to tag it with the R.O. label. IT's NOT a R.O.
They suck, I have a long memory, and tend to hold grudges (sometime that's bad, for SA, they just suck). They sold us out, they'll NEVER sell me another firearm.
Looks like they are trying to make look similar to the TRP line but without any of the actual performance upgrades IMHO. Just a new set of grips and sights basically
I'm with you, why would anybody support a company that stabs us in the back.
Lots of companies have crapped all over us. It's what corporations do.
Gm ignitions, Toyota Airbags, Ford... just name it with Ford starting with the Pinto I guess.
PayPal, Comcast, PNC bank, and the list goes on.
Have you abandoned all of them? Just curious as I have to make those decisions as well.
Springfield isn't making anything I can't live without right now. They might so I won't rule out buying from them again. Besides, they have super customer service on their already sold products. They've taken good care of me over the years.
I got rid of Paypal, PNC, and won't visit businesses that are anti gun.
There's a lot of what I might label "Injustices" in the world but I am in the unpopular seat on which to flog and which to eat their dung for my convenience.
I'm not arguing for or against. It's only the reality of my hypocritical world.

+1 to both you guys. I was hoping this thread would talk more about the new Elite models, not continue rehashing their recent political gaffe. I love that Springfield continues to put out great products, with great customer service, and they're doing it behind enemy lines. I have the new XDe on my hip as I type this, and look forward to getting my hands on one of these RO Elites when they start hitting the LGS shelves.Dear god....so much protesting...
