ive been looking everywehre for a springfield 1911 GI since i have wanted a basic original military style 1911 since i was a kid but it would mostly be to fulfill childhood goal and for novelty. they are sold out everywhere i look
this thing is wicked sick cant wait to get a bunch of ammo for it and go out and run it. think im going to take off the rail ladder on the bottom and play around with moving the vertical grip up farther on the rails, buy an optic for it, get a nice 1 point sling and a DD stamped sling plate thinger and a flip up troy rear sight so i can always have 1/3 co witness on the front sight but use the flip up if aimpooint gets knocked out of use or alignment. also think i might get a hogue grip, fde stock and fde rail ladders nad order up some fde magpul mags. ive had it for a day and i already have a laundry list of shit to do with it lol.

I thought the grip was in an odd place it would be uncomfortable for me where it is
What kind of optic are you thinking about?
I hear Troy makes some really nice items, never owned one before let me know how it works for you if you get one.
Magpul Mags $$$ I love them we have like 40 of them they make a really nice product
lol stock guns always need work I think I spend more on changing the guns once I get them what I paid for the gun itself!

I'm 6'2 so im fairly lanky and while its not particularly uncomfortable even when i move the grip all the way out to the very edge of the extension on the rail i think it would be more natural farther up though.
ive been looking at aimpoint micros like in that torture test. might get a cheaper one though. the cop i used for my ffl was telling me he really liked his vortex which is like a cheap knockoff aimpoint and i looked into their minis. i might do that to deflect some of the cost since im not planning on dropping mine out of a helicopter or blowing it up. he also loves troy stuff and said he might be able to get me a deal on the flip up rear sight so that would be cool.
Magpul mags own so much because they are a very high quality product which is priced very reasonably
