Its the Loaded model in 45 Acp. Tell me about it. I don't own a semi and never have. Looking to get a carry/protection for my move to Montana and can snag one up for a steal. All in all i can get in for 500 bucks and it has a holster and 180 rounds of ammo. What say you?
Thanks Roy

Only question I have is to why that $500 is still in your wallet.
Great deal for the pistol alone of it isn't hammered to dog chit.

Roy, it should go without saying that your NEXT post had better include a photo of your new Springfield 1911.

I had one and used it for several years to win Class A at my action pistol club. Very nice gun and better, in my mind, than the comparable Kimbers.

Yeah, 'cause a 180 rounds of ammo thrown in just wasn't enough to sweeten the deal.......

Very nice buy
I assume it will be one of your "better buys"

Comes with three clips magazines... We can't have the owner of a nice 1911 talk like that.
Forgive me my nonsense, as I also forgive the nonsense of those that think they talk sense.

Nice pistol, but you are doubly lucky.
Springfield frames are forged by IMBEL in Brazil. IMBEL is one of the top foundries in the world so no worries. If IMBEL machines the frame to greater than 80% completeness the frame will be marked as made in Brazil. That is the case with the vast majority of 'Loaded' Springfield 1911's.
If the frame is brought to greater than 80% by Springfield in the good old USA then the pistol is marked with a "NM" prefix. I think the NM's are better, some think they are the same. To lots of shooters the NM will command 20% or more in price.
In other words, at that price, you really suck.
Forgive me my nonsense, as I also forgive the nonsense of those that think they talk sense.
