Ha@! I bought one too from Triple A. 1911 MC Operator Loaded. I was just there yesterday and the day before. I had to retake my HSC test and get a new card because mine was expired.... We were probably there together... I pick it up on the 16th.....10 day wait is BULLSHIT and feels like FOREVER

The 1911 pistol is IMO the best pistol ever built. I own several. My primary and first 1911 is a Springfield 1911 TRP Stainless. The best pistol in my collection at the moment. Its sentimental to me bc I have always liked the 1911 profile, and when I decided to finally purchase one a few years back, I chose the TRP. So as my first 1911 she will always be with me until the day I die, and my first born will then take it.

Good choice on that pistol of yours. You will love it.

Love the .45 ACP and the 1911 platform but my first Springfield was a huge disapointment. Make sure you keep it really clean and test out all kinds of ammo through it before you put your life on it, at least that's my experience with Springfield. Looks cool though.
