Not only is it a great gun, but if you need it you'll get great support .  Mine had to go back---having strange issues.  Slide stop was out of spec----they had the gun for about a week, replaced the slide stop  and decided to replace the barrel because it might've caused a problem in the future.  It wasn't a problem now, but it could've been a problem so they were proactive and replaced it---no charge---I doubt kimber would've done that.  great gun and the custom shop is great to deal with.


have fun

Saw an ad on Gunbroker that introduced me to Guy Ferro Guns in Arizona.  Got a super deal ($1850 shippped!).  They should have two left.  One is a very early model with 5 Wilson Combat mags that were changed at the request of the FBI ("reliability issues," per Deb at Springfield) to the metal forms in the later models.  The other Pro left is the later model like mine that comes with 6 metal form mags.  Their website is: www.guyferroguns.com.

Great price, I would have probably bought it too!

Now get out there and shoot the crap out of it and report back on the double!

I'll say it now and again, probably the best price/performance pistol out there period.  

eta1(especially at 1850!).
eta2(there's an ed borwn special forces thread here too - very similar idea -  keep it cheap as possible, everything you need, nothing you dont')

That's the one tip of the hat I'll give to SA...their custom shop does some DAMN fine work...

I had a square frame Springfield reprofiled by them and it was a phenomenal job.

Their website shows them as tactical pro. The springfield catalog does not mention this model Only professional. The work section describes a tac pro conversion on your loaded gun. Is this what he has, custom shop reworked loaded pistols?

Give in not, to your hate. Path to the dark side it will lead.

Not sure what you mean, but that is a Professional for sure. The serial number prefix and the custom shop logo are a dead give away.

Just a matter of time before I get one.

Nice pistol, have fun with it, shoot it it a lot, it is a working gun not a safe queen!!

Absolutely Springfield's best 'Custom Shop' pistol in addition to the ProRail. Thanks for sharing!!

Looks like you continue to make good decisions.  You bought an awesome gun, live in the best state, live in the best area in the state, went to the best school in Texas, and you are also a member of the class of 96.  I don't know if it gets any better.
