Lipsey's Exclusive: Springfield Armory Vickers Tactical 1911

[@Ghostrider-71]

The .45 acp will never be undone or stopped. The 1911 is the same.....never undone and will never be stopped. Probably the best personal defense round and pistol on the planet.

[@LarryeWhite61]

@Kenneth Carrier agreed. Just take a look at the offerings from Underwood

[@joseconcepcion1354]

Can be modified with ambidiextrous safety for left hand

[@supergeek79]

I picked one up recently and absolutely love it. It’s a phenomenal pistol and a pleasure to shoot.

[@TheRealZJE313]

Where at? Cause I can't find them

[@eliduckworth4204]

This thing is SICK.

[@LipseysGuns]

It's really as cool as it looks!

[@eliduckworth4204]

LIPSEY'S I just put in a order for one.

[@AdrianGarcia-my9ed]

@@LipseysGuns are they limited?

[@jeffreylocke8808]

That is a great concept 1911. Reliable by design.

[@jvc6489]

Been waiting for these to be available. Had my dealer request one recently

[@af22raptor23503]

That is an AWESOME 1911 and I cannot wait till it is in my Weapons Locker and in my CCW Rotation!

[@adivinaquien2303]

Hello Question for Lipseys' ? Is it possible for your company to build a 6 INCH barrel 45 ACP on black anodized stainless steel...? Thanks Ur guns are beautiful works of Art by the way...

[@bosse641]

Beauty.

[@jasondorman3739]

Should have SA make more Combat Operators. I regret selling both of mine.

[@jasondorman3739]

@Mike P Not the Combat Operator, was a limited production.

[@jasondorman3739]

@Mike P not quite. The CO operator was more like the mastercraft guns. Tool steel trigger components, 25 lpi checkering, dawson front and 10-8 rear. Probably a couple of others im missing. SACS is a joke compared to what it used to be. You can only get SA sights installed, no checkering. Plus the old stly rollmarks vs their new ugly style.

[@thealsatian4232]

I’ll order one tomorrow when my dealer opens up.

[@johnfontenot4351]

Were you able to get one? Neither of my dealers were able to get one 🤷🏼‍♂️

[@thealsatian4232]

@@johnfontenot4351 nope. No luck.

[@waynecastleman1363]

@@thealsatian4232 Nor was I . Couple things going on here is that most dealers stock sub 1000 guns because they sell better. I bought a Wilson that had been in the shop two years or more and they were happy to see it go. This is a nice 45 and it's built right !

[@waynecastleman1363]

Also production is way down and it's bumped prices up as well .

[@JeremiahJS1984]

I called all of my local Lipsey's distributors and none of them have it and they won't order it for me! What do I do?

[@dreauxmire]

Jeremy James Call Lipsey’s! They great are great people. I have 2 Lipsey’s Glocks, all I did was call one of their sales personnel, and they told me if it was in stock and what stores were Lipsey’s dealers. Then I just started calling stores. Actually I think I emailed their sales team. I also recently emailed the same guy asking about two more pistols that I am waiting on them to get stock on.

[@MrOliverbox]

It’s a good looking pistol, and I’m excited... 2 questions: 1.) How does this compare to the TRP? 2.) Why no magwell?

[@MrOliverbox]

Cassette Tape, Well, I called the guys at LIPSEY’S and they told me that the Master Class is a step above the TRP.

[@clayjones1933]

@@MrOliverbox They're trying to sell this pistol! Why wouldn't they tell you that?

[@MrOliverbox]

Clay Jones, well sir, I understand your point, but “Master Class” is not new. The Silent Operator has been out for a few years. The Master Class guns get some attention and hand fitting and some parts from the Springfield Custom Shop, which the TRP’s don’t get. Maybe someone will eventually do a review and compare the two... my guess is that there won’t be much difference in accuracy or perceived quality between the two.

[@theia1653]

Looks like a variant of the Loaded, or what the Loaded should be.

[@bigd5420]

Needs a mag well to complete the LV 1911.

[@brianb900]

I have VT116. It’s a sweet 1911!

[@johnfontenot7861]

Please make some, ive been trying to get one for over a year.

[@olemissreb7550]

This falls under don't hurt to ask, can an order be placed directly from an individual for one of these fine pistols and have it sent to my ffl?

[@stealthkraken]

Hi, will you make these available for Europe, do you work with a dealer in Belgium? Thanks, God Bless

[@LipseysGuns]

Sorry Oli, US only.

[@rickgrimes931]

Now we need a 9mm and 10mm version.

[@Farmer_1776]

Where can I buy one? They are not available to all Lipseys dealers.

[@markmatroni631]

Found 1 today that looks unfired. Had to buy it!!!!

[@Sunbear415]

Glad to see they didn’t put those God awful front slide serrations on that thing!

[@five5105]

Anyone know what plate carrier is in the thumbnail?

[@martyyoung3611]

I've asked my local dealer to order one for me.

[@chadm2124]

How can a get this handgun?

[@hydjrasierra1557]

Serrations look like "Dragon's teeth"

[@AdrianGarcia-my9ed]

So are these limited?

[@shawnbrummett587]

503 pistols were made I believe

[@pray4mojo35]

The question is.. how to convince my wife that I need another 1911?

[@Hunterlewis675]

Give her a gift card to Nordstrom’s

[@af22raptor23503]

Any Plans to ADD a 10mm Auto Version of the Vickers Tactical 1911? I have a 45acp on Order but I would love to get a 10mm Auto as well if it comes out!!

[@waynecastleman1363]

Really nice looking gun, but the prices are getting very high and I won't throw two grand at this gun. It's not a custom enough for those prices. It was not intended to sell at two grand an up . But it's cool

[@azrael3758]

I hope i'll be able to grab one once I get out of this commie state.

[@geebeaux]

Terrible presentation.. WHICH PARTS are oversized & HANDFIT??????? You only focused on the obvious, visable parts on the gun.

[@rogervoyles7726]

F Springfield

[@MrIdasam]

I hear what you're saying, but at some point, the gun community is going to have to get over this whole thing. Ruger had their controversies back in the day too, but no one seems to remember that. Everyone got over it.

[@MrDoakster]

And nobody got hurt, bankrupt, or anything!! The company is still in business and pumping out guns and all you haters even look at what glock has done and smith & Wesson done it’s share of back stabbing. Hell look at your own backyard for liberal law makers stealing right under your nose.. and gun laws restricting you .... where is the big out cry there?????
