Springfield Range Officer

Post by BuckeyeSgt »

I had a Loaded stainless model but traded it off. Didn't really care for the stainless. But everyone has to have a 1911 right? Finally got to pick my order up from my FFL today.

That has a really nice look to it. I have shot several of the different Springfield 1911's and all were a pleasure to shoot.

I have lusted after one of those for awhile. Would like to hear your review after you have put some rounds through it.

8-) I have only seen one Springfield need to go back, and they sent a brand new one right away. That was back in '89, have only heard good things about them. RO's are supposed to be an excellent 'shooter's' 1911.
