And Colt has craftsmanship, they just dont care about the civilian market, do no R&D, and all their fanboys think that colts the best since they are "the original" or whatever. They care so much about the mil/le market they just give us basic guns and jack the price up since it has the colt name.

You have to admit, you could buy a Springfield for much less than a comparable Colt (similiar features)

Springfield: Great guns, good price, lifetime warranty, and full custom shop, plus excellent customer service.

Only bad thing is they billboard their name on every gun.

But they are the best value in 1911s.

I totally could have bought a lower end Springfield instead of the High Standard, but I was being a cheap bastard that day. The extra $50 and the money for a beavertail would have been worth it

trade the hi standard, buy a milspec. The milspec is known to be very easy to customize and extremely reliable. And if you get springers custom shop to do the work its all under warranty, other custom shops void the warranty for anything they replaced, springer covers the new stuff.

I already promised it to my dad so he could keep it as his truck gun. Business is starting to pick up for him, so he'll probably buy it in the next year

Here's my method of hunting: Yell "It's coming for us!" and fire a bunch of random shots at the animal.
