      I started questioning Springfield Armory's quality a couple years ago. There was a guy at the gun store that just bought a brand newTRP and the frame was visibly out of spec. It was literally crooked. Springfield basically refused to help him or replace the firearm. Ever since then I've been very wary.

    Got my first 1911 back when i was about 14 years old, just turned 70 and still have a 1911.

    The FBI uses the SA Custom Professional, a fully hand fitted and hand tuned 1911 that comes out of their true Custom Shop. When the Custom Shop fulfills their annual contract to the FBI, the Shop then sends the rest for the civilian market. The Custom Professional costs about $3,700. The TRP is not completely hand tuned and hand fitted. It is not from their Custom Shop. Some parts are hand fitted, or just touched up a bit, or certain pieces just selected for a better fit. It does not cost $3,700 either. It runs about $1,700. It is a Poors Man's Custom Professional. Sorta of like buying a Tudor wrist watch instead of a Rolex. Nothing wrong with a Tudor either.

      Looks can be deceiving. I don't own this pistol, but in general 1911's in 45 acp are notorious for being unreliable with hollow point ammunition. They have thin feed ramps and that can catch certain hollow point bullets as they feed causing a jam. The 2011 variants with 9mm are much better and hold twice the capacity.
      Beautiful pistol regardless!

    Looks like a near-perfect melding of classic and modern gun design. 1911s are so distinct from all other pistols.

    I'm glad they offer front checkering and rail on the new TRP, however I wish offer adjustable rear sights like their Operator model, but I understand they are trying to save some money for the consumer.

    This is great, but it also reminds me of why Glock stood out from the competition for so long. What do I mean? Every Glock comes with front serrations on the grip. Every Glock. Not just the top of the line $2000 version.

    I find it interesting that the trigger is around 3lb since many custom shops wont set a trigger below 3.5 without signing a waver. These TRPs must have had additional work before being sent to reviewers.

    No matter what, the effectiveness and it''s long life, the 1911A1, marches on, in the polymer generation. Highly skilled operatives, understand the genius of John Moses Browning. This is a great pistol. The only thing I would change, is use the shorter GI guide rod, as JAB intended.

      I also understand the genius of Alexander Graham Bell but I don't still carry around an old 2-piece handset and base telephone in my pocket.

      @@papimaximus95 The basic design of the 1911A1, has not changed, but the telephone has. The 1911 pistol was invented at at a time when cars and airplanes had just started. Now we have space vehicles that can land and operate on Mars. Today, in 2024, the 1911 pistol, a one hundred and thirteen year old invention, continues with high sales and use. Last I checked at least twenty-five gun manufacturers, still produce 1911A1 pistols, in the USA, and countries oversees. FACTS always tell the truth.

      The 1911 is a relic of the past that's been supplanted by more evolved pistols.
      True, it's quite functional, but it's an un-evolved relic nonetheless.

      @@zanelittlegray Obviously, many 1911A1 owners, and those specialists that use, and trust to save people's lives everyday with the 1911A1 disagree. Go with the FACTS ..The un-evolved relic obviously still has a place today, among 1911A1 pistol owners, some military and specialized law enforcement. Gee, those pesky FACTS again.

    Still running my Springfield GI 1911.
    Bought it used and the previous owner abused it including putting an idiot mark on it from reassembling it.
    After a little TLC from me, I haven't had any problems.
    Love the TRP but I don't think I'd spend that much.

    Is that full length guide rod going to come loose when shooting?? It’s just screwed in. What’s the point of a full length guide rod where the standard gi does just fine?
