First off, kudos to the reviewer. Very good review that maybe softens the criticisms a little but doesn't avoid them like so many others that are just advertising copy.

Looks like Spingfield put some thought into it, only tweaking the original design where it was needed, especially the trigger pull, while retaining the handling qualities that made the original so popular. My only personal critique would be the U shaped rear notch instead of a square one but that's a very minor nit to pick.

Folks readily accept 1911's made by every Tom, Dick and Harry manufacturer out there so unless someone just has to have an original (and expensive) FN Browning Hi Power this looks like it could be one of the best choices available today.

Thanks for posting that.
