You should check out the Springfield Garrison. It’s pretty equivalent to the range officer. I had one in 45 ACP, and I really liked it. I only sold it to get my Colt, because I wanted a Colt.I had the 9mm Springfield 1911 Range Officer Elite. It was a flawless shooter right out of the box (well, the guy I bought it from put 150 rounds through it before me but didn’t have to tweak it either). I sold it on an impulse to a guy who offered me significantly more than I paid for it.
Sort of wish I hadn’t. It was more fun and easy to shoot, with significantly less hassle and ammo expense, than my .45 acp 1911.
