Should I buy it?

[Sir Toast]

Okay, I have an opportunity to pick up a new in the box Springfield Armory, stainless steal 1911 in 9mm. (I heard Springfield Armory stopped making them for California.) It would cost me about $1,000 for everything, out the door, tax, DROS, etc. I want a 9mm, no other caliber. All my semi's are 9mm for reloading and bulk ammo purposes.

Should I buy it? (I have enough Glocks, so that is covered. I just sold a Gen 2 NIB model 17.)

If you want to support a company that tried to sell out the rest of the firearm industry in Illinois, then sure!

If you are dead set on a 9mm 1911 find one but IMHO dont get a springer they sold out big time.

$1000 is not a steal.

Nope.

This is something really hard to overlook.

Sometimes they are hard to come by. Sooo... if you're dead set on some range fun then go get it.

Glock. The best handgun in the world and the gold standard for 9mm. Also a company that never sold out its customers.

Then try to find the Holy Grail. A generation 1 in the Tupperware. My quest has been going on for years.

I heard from some guy on the internet that Springfield's are garbage and that the only parts worth keeping are the slide and the frame so unless you've got another 1k to invest in parts and labor, I'd look somewhere else Maybe check out the Kimber
