This gun is exactly like my Range Officer Compact, except for the longer full size grip, as apposed to the Officers grip, and the standard size wood grips instead of the thin grips on the Compact. Being that everything else is virtually identical, this is one incredible bargain for what you get. Unbelievably accurate and reliable for this feature packed mid priced 1911. I carry mine daily with total confidence. Nice job Springfield Armory.
