Brought home a Springer 1911-A1 Loaded SS in 9mm today. :clap: :clap: Coworker of mine bought a Fusion from Va Arms, and told me I had to go by and look as they had a lot of used/consignment pistols in - and they did!!!! This Springer just wooed me over, and I had to take her home. Now for some range time and get used to her. I have a feeling this will be my new IDPA ESP gun. :pistol:

I pulled her down and gave her a good cleaning, I doubt very seriously it has more than 100 rounds through it. The bushing shows very little wear, there's almost no marks on the barrel or the slide. There are a few small marks on the side of the slide, but this doesnt bother me - it's not going to be a safe queen. I think I did good.

Thanks guys. My son and I went to the range this afternoon, so I could get a little time to acquaint myself with my newest addition. Below is my first 25+ rounds @ 7 yrds, with my reloads, not one hickup.

Me likie :clap:
