Another one in the books. Congratulations on finding this gun again.
SA needs to bring SACS back .
What happened to the Custom Shop?
@@michaelocean4788 custom shop has ceased for now . Hopefully it will come back one day .
The custom shop is still there, but due to high demand they only make one gun, so you can hardly call them a "custom shop." Take a guess as to what that one gun is?
@@michaelvstheworld3680 last I heard was its shutdown.
@goyofoyo like I said, it is still there, but they only make the Professional model. So it is not really a custom shop anymore. I guess you are correct for that reason.
As an owner or a crg myself thank you for this video! There aren’t many videos out there especially as detailed as yours! Appreciate your time and knowledge! People do t know ow how special these are and how rare!!!
Appreciate the feedback. Glad I can help
I still kick myself for not getting one 3 years ago at my local shop for $2,900 😢
Nice comparison! I’ve owned a few of these over the years and sold them all to try other guns. Live and learn.
Love the 1911 videos. I like that you let the fire arm be shown the whole video and it’s up close and in high definition. How all reviews should be done
Great video. I have one coming in tomorrow that was made in 2013. Can’t wait to get it in my hands.
Hope you enjoy it!
FBI Trial article: There are 7 posts that talk about the trials in detail www.1911addicts.com/threads/fbi-trials-article.18333/
The grips on the older Pro are Vickers Signature Series 1911 Grips.

The grips on the newer pro are Pachmayr 1911 grips. I cut the center wraparound out with a razor so I could feel the front strap checkering

🇺🇸🤠 You forgot some companies where disqualified because they forgot Items in with test gun, mags,brushing wrench,missing a mag...patrick Sweeney covers some of this in his 1911 book 1st edition but yeah its my gotta have some day in Life
Good to see another video and congrats on the double score. I've never seen the pro in CA but maybe I'll get lucky one day and find one. Enjoying my TRPs and Operators in the meantime. Keep up the good work.
I got the hrt railed model. It has never had a jam or issue. I have new colts, ww2 colts, stacatto p, and a colt custom race gun but my springfield has out preformed all of them
Nice score.
Received mine in 95’, no roll marks or numbers, it was a great gun. It ran flawlessly through out my career, now I don’t know if that credit goes to the technician that maintained it or the smith that made it. I don’t think Springfield is running things the same way they did back then, but I hear their 1911s are still solid.
Fantastic video as always!
Beautiful guns! The only Springfield’s I like are the ones that came out of the custom shop.
Which is now history, correct?
@@Rubelessapparently so, but I’m not 100% sure if they still make pros from time to time? Not well informed on current happenings unfortunately. I stopped following Springfield after I had 3 out of 3 of my production line springfield handguns be unreliable duds.
@@jakashhthe Pros are no longer made. They still have them advertised on their website but many people have called and they have verified they do not produce them any longer.
Nice video. The Springfield Armory professional is an awesome 1911. I have the non rail version. One of my absolute favorite pistol.
This is one of my bucket list pistols but without the rail.
@JoeFromTheAfternoon congrats on bringing it back home I'm still on the hunt.
There’s one on GB right now
Super Scoop. Good choice. I threw Trijicon HD sights on mine. The Novaks are great sights still, but there are better options out there now.
Wow love that gun. Side note do you still have beef with beretta boy? Loved those beef videos 😅
They will forever be complete buffoons in my book. They have videos of the new TRP’s and have “FBI HRT” in the title. Inaccurate and misleading but that’s who they are, a couple of nitwits
Agreed shills as well.
@@donnieandrews1396that thread in the forum was epic lmao
Thanks for the video, it’s on the list for sure.
19:43 lmao mine is the exact same. I dang near removed the finish from the plug by using a bushing wrench on my mid 6000s Operator (Also ended up stripping the shape of the plastic plug wrench) 😂. I’ve had to resort to field stripping it the other way, popping out the slide stop under tension and removing the slide while holding the spring and then removing the plug and then using a metal bushing wrench to put it back together….. Btw, where are the Beretta boys? 😂😂we miss you on the 1911Addikts forum brotha
Yeah haha. Thats the only way to take it down. Popping out the slide stop first. Beretta boys are bumbling along with their low viewership to subscribers ratio. My transparency is too much for Razer to handle. He enjoys pandering to friends and unilateral enforcement of rules aka his feelings.
Great Vid
What name brand are those wooden grips? I don’t recall ever seeing that logo they are nice.
I thought it was the trp that was adopted by hrt and law enforcement. Waiting for my 10 day waiting period on my trp. I’m excited
Nope! It was the professional. If you look at my video on the full rail, TRP, it tells the history. The TRP was made to quench the demand for the public that wanted the professional but didn’t want to pay professional price. So the TRP came out as a production line variant to the custom professional
I don't understand why they closed the custom shop. They sold everyone they made they had years of waiting lists. It was definitely a money maker, so why would you close it?
Because they make WAY more money making cheaper guns and selling those. Why spend all the time making custom guns to make a 2K profit of a 3.5K gun when you can make that easier slapping together cheap plastic guns (like the Echelon)? The latter makes more sense.
🤤🤤
Do you carry anyone of these guns?
No
Dibs
On?? 🧐
