flashlight_65 Posted January 15, 2012 Report Share Posted January 15, 2012 Looking into a starter piece like a Springfield WW2 mil spec before I save my pennies and drop the change on a trp operator. I'm digging the single stacks I wasn't a fan before but the operator changed my mind. Just wanted a bit of a beater to develop that good ol' muscle memory. Any other 1911's in the $5-600 you gents would recommend? Quote My builds: my caddy my 'hoe friends impala Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RFFANATIC Posted January 15, 2012 Report Share Posted January 15, 2012 Cabelas runs the Springfields on sale for $599 every once in a while. Granted its a "stock" gun but not a bad price for a start to build on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flashlight_65 Posted January 17, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 17, 2012 (edited) Thanks gents going to do some research now. I don't plan to mod the starter piece just get a good idea of the dynamics of that style of pistol. I've just handled double stacks until I shot my friends kimber and really liked it, the trigger and feel were totally new but I had that "I must have one" epiphany Edited January 17, 2012 by flashlight_65 Quote My builds: my caddy my 'hoe friends impala Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
