I found a Springfield GI 5" parkerized for $407. Is this a good price? I am wanting a good reproduction 1911.

ETA:

In reproduction I meant WWII era. Thanks for the replies

Edited to add that maybe my initial estimate on a new one is too high. You might want to shop around and make sure.

The cheapest I have seen is $429.00. So your price is pretty sweet.

I've seen them between $390 to $440 around Alabama. I paid $350 for mine, but bought 4 other guns that day from the dealer. I like the WWII look also, just not the big US on the grips, changed to basic checkered wood.

I paid $419+tax at the Dallas gunshow two days ago.

I wanted park'd in OD, but none of the vendors with Springfield 1911's had them. One said they'd been ordering them every week for weeks now. So I got it in black. The other black Park'd GI 5" in the show was $450. The rest of the 5" GI's were stainless.
