I Live right by the distribution center. I called and they said the government which is the 800ish model is only available in bull barrel. The saw varients are available in bull or bushing. the saw is sweet but its closer to the 1600-1800 range. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, it is available with a bushing barrel, I bought a Trophy SAW a while back and the gun is a real dream to shoot. The Trophy Saw is but the cheaper Government (thats the actual name) model is not available in bushing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Canman Posted September 18, 2022 Author Share Posted September 18, 2022 Ok is it worth having the rail on the operator for a light vs the Bul government model? The Bul is less expensive vs the Springfield operator. Might be nice having the extra weight vs the Bul. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mostly for looks but seems like holsters are more available for models without rail. I certainly wouldn't spend more on the operator for a rail if its a comp gun.

Jammer1911 Posted October 19, 2022 Share Posted October 19, 2022 Springfield Armory camp also. Found a used (<800 rds)Trophy Match 45 for 1200.00. Needs trigger cleaned up and a FO front Sight and skateboard taped front strap. Also have a Ronin in 9mm, love it. SA has great Customer Service as well. A used TRP I purchased lost the front Sight. Called SA and the provided a shipping label. Had the slide with new sights back within 10 days. Can't beat that. Springfield Armory Customer for life.

DubfromGA Posted February 14, 2023 Share Posted February 14, 2023 (edited) There was a time when I'd have recommended one of the Dan Wesson PM series guns. I've been well served with my PM-38. Prices have gone up to the point where I'd likely give a harder look at a Les Baer PM2. I have three Baer 5" 45acp guns that have each been rock solid with excellent ledge thumb safeties, fiber front sights and superb triggers.

Runswithwood1 Posted February 15, 2023 Share Posted February 15, 2023 Wow I'm really late to the topic, I've had super good luck with Springfield anything but my go to for single stack is my dan Wesson pointman 7. Dan Wesson's may be a little pricier but you get what you pay for especially for 1911s Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mikemiller69gs Posted February 23, 2023 Share Posted February 23, 2023 I’ve had a Pointman 9 for about a year and I love it. I’ve used it a few times at IDPA matches and it performs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
