Good review. I have several Springfield 1911s and found with my commander size Ronin that the stock mag was my problem. Tried with two WC mags and two Ed Brown mags with no issues at all; and once Springfield replaced the mag that came in the box I never ran into any feeding or cycling problems again. The Springfield 1911s are well built and fairly priced. The new TRP looks great!

Bought a new Springfield Armory 1911 TRP 4.25” Carry Contour yesterday. Took it to range right from my FFL. I could not get through a single string without numerous failures to feed. Tried all three factory included magazines…loaded 3 rds, 5rds, and full 7 rds …no matter, still got FTF. Ammo was PMC Bronze 230 FMJ ball. Went home and cleaned and lubed gun. Back at range today and gun continued to jam. I tried two Ruger mags that came with my SR1911, hoping the mags were the issue…nope, still got FTF’s. Going to another range on Friday and will try my friends Wilson Combat mags and some Sig V-Crown 230 JHP. If I still have issues, the pistol is going back to Springfield Armory. Thanks for your excellent video review. Liked and subscribed 👍🏻

Good review Dave. Springfield makes some nice 1911's. I have a few. As someone who daily carries a government sized 1911 in 45 acp and have for years, I tend to shy away from ones that that have less than 5" barrel and in other calibers other than 45 acp. I also prefer an all steel frame and slide. But that's just me. I have found the Wilson Combat magazines are the best for my 1911's and have never had any issues. Your mileage may vary. I always enjoy your content. Stay well.

Pretty interesting. If I put my sig 1911 carry 4.2 next to Springfield close to a look a like. Except the Sig has no refrigerator,dishwasher, or a/c attachment rail. Sig no failures in any of the 8 round magazines. Two oem and numerous Wilson Combat mags. I did pickup two chip McCormick 8 round spwith out the bulging base plates of the Wilson’s or the oem magazines. I have not fired the weapon with the chip McCormick mags yet. Didn’t make much sense to me have a rounded butt and then through in magazines the go out further than the rounded butt. So ends the myth with imprinting if that’s the reason. So with the McCormick mag it sits flush without going past the rounded butt just like the old 7 round mags 1911 did. One noticeable difference on the Sig is the external extractor. Btw I enjoy your Opinion very much. You shoot and tell it like it is the good, bad and ugly of a weapon. 👍

Give it a try. Good dam ammo. 👍🇺🇸. What I like about PSA with their ammo. That they produce their own primers. After over 2,500 rounds of 380acp, .308, 45acp and 9mm. Not, 1 issue so far.

A Dan Wesson ECP or Guardian would be a good comparison to this pistol since they have bobtail frames and are similar in barrel length. If you want to compare this to something with a rail, perhaps the Dan Wesson TCP would work well. At the price point for this TRP pistol, I would compare it to all of these Dan Wesson models before buying.

It's very true that the current TRP offerings overlap with Dan Wesson's offerings big time. You can get a Specialist cheaper than the current TRP and that comes with zero mim parts and a better overall product imo (I own 3 DW's). Though I won't knock SFA on their higher end 1911's as they do know how to make them well but like you I'd focus on a DW first.

I just picked up the black version of this pistol and am having the same issue with light hammer strikes every 3rd round. I talked with Springfield and they are sending me a new main spring and a new recoil spring. The weight for the main spring is 19# and the recoil spring is 20# after i switch them out i will repost my findings. its a tack driver when it works but every 3rd round has a issue. I think it is short stroking, I might try a 18# recoil spring before I send it back in.
@paulmazzara50306 ай бұрын
*update* after receiving the springs from S.A. I did notice that the main spring in the gun was a lot shorter . After replacing the main spring and recoil spring i went back to the range and the gun did not have any light primer strikes. I did run 3 1/2 boxes of ammo through it, white box fmj, federal fmj. Remington fmj and some herters fmj . I now have a total of 250 rounds through the gun and it is very nice. now that it is broken I did clean and oil it and rechecked the trigger weight and it sits a little over 3lbs. I'm very happy with it. I know the price is steep but the end product in my opinion is verry nice. Hope this helps.

Trigger on TRPs is heavy. I tried about 5-6 different pieces they all feel the same. Eventually purchased the new TRP, it’s trigger pull is above 5lbs. Feels like 5.5-6 lbs. it’s already 2024, not 1924! another add to “why Springfield, why”. I would not recommend this gun for $1700-1800. Save your money for something better. Operator looks similar with better trigger and $700 cheaper.

I own a Specialist and have went over the new TRP at my local shop. The DW is a higher quality with zero mim parts but the TRP feels very solid as well. Good tuned grip safety, manual safety and barrel lug and bushing fit. I'd say either one will serve you well. Though the Specialist is only in stainless or black melonite duty finish whileas the coyote finish is just beautiful in person. The Specialist commander version of it is all steel vs an aluminum lower. The Specialist can also be had with an optics cut though.
