I've run 1150 rounds through the parkerized pistol and 600 rounds through the stainless with no feeding or ejection problems; zero. The fit and finish is great on both and they'll shoot better than I can. I think they're worth the $800-$900. Only thing I'd change on either would be the addition of front strap checkering and a bead blasted finish on the stainless.

here's my contribution

CIRCA 1976, Lightwieght Commander; Highly customized by Crawley Custom, Kart NM Barre,, 30LPI strap, match trigger, match bushing, yada yada. Shot it once. I hate the color, the O.D. green looks like baby vomit to me, Thinking about having it stripped and re-coated.

I guess I like Baby Vomit. The STI is awesome too.

Prolly your camera settings are too low. Check pixel strength.

DMc,

Hmm, probably right. I took picture with my cell and had to reduce to 70% to be able to send them to my email. Need to break out my digital camera and snap a few more pictures.

Gunchamp - I bought a Springfield Loaded not long after they came out, and it is a sweet-shooting gun. I won A-class at our little action pistol club for a couple years with it. No problems with it at all.

I cheated posting my STI, It's a 2011. I'm color blind, I guess that's why the OD Green looks funky too me.

And here it is after a trip to Mahovsky's Metalife (hard chromed), a change of grips, and a dropped single-sided safety.
