Lipsey's TRP Operator 9mm

[keenkeen]

Are you sure it's a "standard production line 1911"?

SACS tool steel sear hammer and sear
barstock extractor
non-ILS mainspring housing
25 LPI checkering
10-8 Performance U notch rear sight with fiber optic front

Yes, it is not produced by SACS so by definition it is a standard production line model. With some upgraded parts but not SACS built. It's also not a TRP as long as we are getting specific, but then again neither is the Warren Tactical 1911.

The WT is more gun for more money IMO, nothing wrong with that if you are interested in paying for those features. Just like there is nothing wrong with the Lipsey model for $1,500-1700 if it has the features you want.

I prefer the Warren.

I've seen them at Scheel's in Utah for $1500. I considered it but why buy something with limited capacity. There are other guns you can buy with much higher capacity that are more reliable.

Because you can : ) I was unfortunately misguided and had the idea it was at some point handled by SACS..I called today and was sad to hear it wasnt. I'll get it home and see what there is to do withnit. How it shoots etc. I was under the impression it was a 9mm version of the trp more or less. I happen to think the trp is the best value regarding 1911s. We'll see when she gets home

If you don't want it you won't have any problems selling it.

There are only so many railed 9mm 1911 in production besides your's and none of them are on roster.

So true. I love the TRP full rail, just wish it was in 9mm.

I shot about 120 rounds of Rem hollow point through mine last night. 100% feeding with the supplied CMC 10-round mags. Maybe 10% of the brass went to the right side of my face/right eye. Some evidence of vertical stringing, but I can't necessarily blame the gun. I have not shot a 1911 in a while, and there is a transition from my usual striker-fired triggers. Very little recoil. I don't love or hate the gun yet.

I have the standard range officer operator in 9mm. Only 200 rounds threw it so far. I did the cerakote on it, put on some VZ grips and 10-8 rear. It doesn't have front strap checker ing or tool steel FCG but it was literally half the price. Good shooter. Had some hiccups so far but I'll finish break in and play with springs. Just got it for a fun gun and steel shoots. Cool gun. Wanted the combat operator but just didn't see the value in the extreme difference in price.

Are you exempt from the roster? If I were, I'd personally get a Dan Wesson Specialist instead, if I can get one at normal prices.

[asphaltcowboychip]

Can you post a picture? I really like the feel of front checkered.

The snobbery is real on this thread lol
