Springfield 1911 TRP - Gray Frame
I need this gun. I need it. I want it. I have to buy it. It will be in my safe soon -- it has to be.

I've seen one on the shelf here at the PSA. Good looking pistol!!

Yes and look, it has a respectable, useful and well thought out rear sight. Unlike that POS triangle hunk of metal most 1911 builders settle for, novak?

This type of sight, IIRC, first appeared on Baer 1911s. Pretty decent pistol.

Thanks for the link. Unfortunately that's a 9mm variant of what I want.

It'll be my first 1911. Might as well get a really nice one, right?

That grey does look good. I have the SA TRP but in standard black, grey grips.

^ I'm sure it'll open the flood gates. Just like I've done with those damn polymer pistols.

And it's even worse than the horrible adjustable sight that Baer uses. At least he can round off the corners so the sight doesn't cut into your hand when you rack the slide like my TRP Operator did.
