    TRADE PENDING

    GI Champion LW

    For sale for: $535 + shipping. $515 FTF Open to offers.

    Will do FTF sale/trade within an hour of Lafayette.

    Alloy frame, ramped 4" barrel. I have exactly 158rds through it (150rds of WWB FMJ and 8rds of Golden Saber). I bought it brand new in January 2010.

    The lockup is tight and it had 3 or 4 FTRB(failure to return to battery, 1/4" out of battery and must be touched on the rear of the slide to get to firing condition) in the first 100rds. Happened with WWB, Golden Saber worked without a hitch. I'm assuming the WWB was a little weak and didn't cycle the slide all the way and the spring couldn't get the slide going fast enough to get it into battery correctly. It's a little flippy for my tastes, so I'm looking for another 5" 1911.

    I'm including everything that came with it, and throwing in some Springfield NM mags that came with another pistol that I never used (not sure on the function of them)

    Will trade for a parked 5" Springfield Mil-Spec or Parked Springfield GI, used is fine as long as it's in good condition too.

    Don't hesitate to contact me with any questions.
