Springfield 1911's

[jazman]

If anyone that currently has a SA 1911 and that doesn't like the direction the company is going would like to sell their crap-company 1911s just to get rid of them and show your unhappiness with them, please let me know. I will pay you $100 per Springfield Armory 1911.

Together we will show them...

All jokes aside, if the OP buys a used one he is not giving money to SA. they already have that money.

Well put...I am in for a group buy.

I would have happily sold my Springfield Armory 1911's to those looking to support an anti-second amendment gun company but unfortunately for them I have already dumped all of them. Some people just don't have principles.

If you already own them or bought them used the company makes 0. Reminds me of people that cry about Chicom pistols but they haven't been sold imported legally and sold new since 1995. They don't see a cent of the money.

If you are going to sell all your used guns due to anti 2a positions at one time or another of the manufacturer please make sure you get rid of all Colts, Rugers and S&W's to start. Actually Taurus is pretty pro 2a is that what you mainly own?

Nice trio of SA’s, great to see your Pro has been put to good use.

You mean SA did not profit from gun sales before they were revealed to be donating campaign money to anti-2nd politicians, those profits are deemed to be 0? That's funny.

I have Kimbers, Colt, and Springfield. All the entry model of each company's line up. OP, I have to differ with you on this..... the Kimber is more refined with better craftsmanship, more accurate out of the box, and therefore better value for my money compared to the other two aforementioned brands.

I think you don't understand. From what you posted it seems like you are saying you got rid of all your SA products due to the now revealed anti 2a actions of SA and are stating that those that didn't have no principles.

If this is not the case please clarify. And if it is the case why do you own Colt products as but one example?

Having previously owned a Loaded, Range Officer and now a TRP Operator I can say they the are not the same gun. My Loaded rattled when i shook it and trigger was ok. My Range Officer had a tighter fit and better trigger (weight). The TRP Operator has a Bull Barrel and same fit as the Range Officer.

Can't compare to Les Baers, Dan Wesson, Wilson Combat, never owned one.

I did have a chance recently to trade a few Glocks for a Dan Wesson Heritage, but the to me the juice was not worth the squeeze.

Just my 2 cents.

Cite other gun companies wherein present owners have actively donated campaign money to anti-2a politicians, besides Springfield Armory and Rock river Arms.

So the only companies you have a problem with anti 2a actions of are the most current owners and only if they donated to an anti 2A politician but no other anti 2A actions?

Also you consider owning their products as being without principles even if bought used? If so this is strange logic. Am I a Nazi or a Communist because I own used 98k Mausers or Mosin Nagants?

You can't explain why your statement of buying SA guns would not benefit their company, now you change course and twist words. I never stated that owning their products makes someone less principled. If it makes you feel like a communist to own a mauser, then you probably are. If not, then you're probably not.

It seems like you are looking for drama and looking to be offended. Be my guest, be offended. Nobody cares.

The only word twisting and back pedaling being done is by you. And believe me nobody cares about your little rants and pouts about SA used or not. I think they're doing just fine without you.

How do you not understand that owning or buying used SA products does not help the company one bit? Or are you choosing to be offended for fun or something?

Did you dump them at a gun buy back?

I recently just picked up a Springfield Loaded Stainless for $600. It was a hell of deal, the gun was practically brand new. Someone just needed some cash for Christmas.

So, I now have three different Springfield 1911's, the Loaded, TRP, and Professional.
...

I've heard "waste of money"

Nice set, OP. Something that gives joy is hardly a waste of money.[emoji4]

Got a couple of SA 1911s, very happy with both. A 45 and a 9mm. I've trimmed down on current centerfire handguns to same deal except the two Glocks that have 5 slide assemblies between them. No safe queens.

Our cell/mobile phones that seem to go obsolete and worth very little after a couple of years now that's a waste of money![emoji38]
