I own the 5" blued Garrison model and will say it's a great no frills 1911. Love this commander style version 👍🏻

[@TheFirearmGuy]

Very cool with your Garrison

[@314BossB]

Dan...That original TRP nice my man 💯

[@TheFirearmGuy]

Completely agree Boss

[@curly__3]

1911 commanders are perfect for carry. That looks like a nice gun. Thanks.

[@TheFirearmGuy]

Thanks Curly

[@craigallen5029]

Love the Garrison. I also prefer to carry 45 acp. I currently open carry a Glock 21 but i also have a very low serial # Colt Government that i can conceal but i don't very often. It was actually one of the 2500 sold to France in 1915 for WW1 and featured on the forgotten weapons channel several years ago. Passed down to me through a few generations. It's still a shooter.

[@TheFirearmGuy]

Love that Craig

[@YellowHammer26]

👍👍All of those look great, appreciate you sharing them Dan . Hope you’re having a great week.

[@TheFirearmGuy]

Back atcha Lance - thanks man

[@Sunzac817]

I carry my Dan Wesson V-Bob Commander size in 45 ACP. Incredibly accurate, even for this 74 year old dude! I carry McCormick 10 round mags for my extra mags. Enjoy your videos Dan!

[@TheFirearmGuy]

Love your EDC George. Thanks man

[@tjvbham5831]

Really nice looking 1911 option. I have a no frills, Mil-spec, and love it. I may need to look into this model.

[@TheFirearmGuy]

Good stuff bro

[@StevenSmith-p1d]

Hey Dan, how ‘bout a review of Ruger’s new Lightweight Full size 1911s in 9mm & 45 acp? Prices are RIGHT!

[@scottmorgan1016]

Now i like that, especially for carry. Thanks for showing

[@TheFirearmGuy]

Very cool Scott - thanks man

[@GlocknLoad1]

Nice one handed shooting. I always run a couple mags one handed before leaving the range. And could shoot as well as you.. after 10 - 15 video takes. hahah Great review.

[@TheFirearmGuy]

Love it bro. Thanks man

[@brianbowden6302]

My SA Garrison blue 5” 9mm goes with me to the range nearly every time and gets shot often. Wonderful tool. I really love it. I have put night sights on it but otherwise awesome out of the box.

[@TheFirearmGuy]

Great to hear Brian

[@doctorschoolgraduate5444]

Great video/info as usual, keep up the awesome work 👍🏽

[@TheFirearmGuy]

I really appreciate that man

[@keylargojoe62]

Love my hk's but but definitely the CZ exclamation point thanks for the review dan!

[@SuperSneakySteve]

They should make it a CCO with a shorter grip. That's the best carry set up.

[@jeffreyhall838]

Allright you talked me into it so i ordered one of these 😁

[@johnmoorefield76]

Great review Dan!! 1911's just aren't my thing! Will be waiting for your next video Brother & have a good week & shoot on!!

[@TheFirearmGuy]

Much appreciated John

[@anthonyguidas2012]

For the amount you pay they need to include more than one magazine, that’s ridiculous.

[@themudshark1106]

Springfield's quality control is excellent and their 1911's are incredible as well as their XD line and Saint line and M1A line plus their customer service is the best.

[@TheFirearmGuy]

Agreed bro

[@BERETTA9mmUSA]

Very nice Dan! You know I love a fantastic Springfield Armory 1911. My Glocks mostly sit in my safe. 🤣😂😎👍🇺🇸 All The Best To You. Beretta Sr.

Best to you Beretta SR. Always good to see you

[@phantomlord3280]

Just ordered the blued finish, can’t wait for it to come in I’m so excited. Now I’m ever more so after this review lol

Looks good. Amazed thst people still csrry 1911's and revolvers. But to each their own. Thanks Dan

Nice gun Dan! Springfield gives you a lot of value...they make really solid guns.

[@TheFirearmGuy]

Completely agree Bill - thanks

[@patricknesbit2334]

That's real purdy! Springfield makes some nice things. Would buy if I had the funds for it.

[@ZitherBeast]

I don't like anything metal that will reflect light back in my eyes, but that gun looks awesome. I'd opt for the blued version in this case.

Springfield 1911s rock! Great video guy!

[@TheFirearmGuy]

Much appreciated Jay

[@anthonyfedock5321]

... Springfield 1911s have come along way from when they were introduced in the mid 80's, many people shunned them because the frames were being imported from Brazil, supposedly the frames were tough to do custom work on! Good job Springfield ...

[@TheFirearmGuy]

Solid comment Anthony

[@elsanto8879]

No way I’m paying over $800 for a 7 rd gun. Love the review tho my man

[@propdoctor21564]

Learn how to shoot well and you wont need more than 7 rounds. You all have seen too many john wick movies.

[@S.A.Masquerade]

​@@peterfinnie8940 Or just learn to shoot well with any capacity. John Wick also used a 1911 Silly Billy, you haven't been watching enough!

They keep producing the same 1911 type pistol with some tiny change and snapping new name and expect people to drool.

Thanks for the great review Dan. I would like to see Glock come out with a 1911, wouldn’t you? Stay safe out there.

[@TheFirearmGuy]

That would be cool. Thanks bro

Until Springfield decides to add a safety to the right hand side of their 1911s, I'm not interested.

As musch as I'd like a Dan Wesson Specialist my Garrison has really impressed me , just love everything about it and while I can pay more for a 1911 I'm confident bragging right cost a lot of extra money buts what we do ! 😎

That's a nice gun

[@elsullo2]

Astounding! All of these pretty new pistols, but with only HALF of the manual safety levers that they need! That excludes ten to fifteen percent of us......................................elsullo

[@AppalachianAmericanWhitey]

I love Springfield. Don't get me wrong, but this is just a rinse and repeat of older models they already make. I guess they're taking a play from glock's playbook. Nice commander size 1911 but... just because you put night sights on it doesn't make it a "new" production.

[@TheFirearmGuy]

It may not be a big deal to you but it is to others

[@AppalachianAmericanWhitey]

@TheFireArmGuy kinda like the iPhone, though, isn't it? Designed to catch the fisherman instead of the fish.

[@zacharydalton8132]

Then don’t buy it…. Jesus Christ yall are ignorant af. Everything has to be a plastic gun with rails for you people. But muh modern. Glock was born in 1986 give or take there’s nothing modern about it. I suppose you know what they say about opinions….

[@AndyCigars]

I am sure to catch Hell on this…but a 1911 is a ridiculous carry option…and in 45acp it is ludicrous. I carry 45acp but in a Glock 30S. Better capacity, simple and dependable. Those are decent guns…but they should not be recommended for concealed carry.

[@jcoxy1057]

Glock 30 smokes most 1911’s with ease

[@AndyCigars]

@@jcoxy1057for sure…in cost, reliability and simplicity. I have a Taurus 1911 commander in 45. Fun to shoot…but the Glock is so much better.

[@markedman3990]

You're smokin Glock crack!!

[@TheFirearmGuy]

I am way more precise with 1911's

[@AndyCigars]

@@TheFirearmGuy I for sure agree with you there. Longer barrel, super good trigger (better be on those +$1,500 guns) so hells yeah…pinpoint accuracy is better. But for every day carry? Like having a heavy, sharp cheese grater in your belt. 🧀😉

[@keylargojoe62]

Nice dan!👍

[@TheFirearmGuy]

Thanks Joe

[@miltonoliver3705]

Nice gun, but modern guns 1911's included need an accessory rail in my opinion

[@Horgler]

That's what the Operator or TRP is for. Some people just want a basic 1911.

[@TheFirearmGuy]

Thanks Milton

[@rogerray2545]

👍🏻👍🏻

[@Bullshot40]

I love Springfield Xdm and xds pistols....I even forgive them for their political mishap.....but good God, why do they keep making 1911 pistols? How many "new" 1911's can there be??? It's such an outdated gun design....I'd like to see them move on and focus on making things like their hell cat. That gun was revolutionary and I bet they can come up with more designs that change the industry!

[@TheFirearmGuy]

Well, they created the Echelon

[@joemorganeatmyshortschannel]

very cool

[@TheFirearmGuy]

Thanks, Joe

[@silverbackgorilla2112]

Nice video as always Dan, but there are already too many 1911 choices IMO. I carried one of those boat anchors in the Marine Corps and I'm not a fan of them.

[@TheFirearmGuy]

I appreciate your service silverback

[@user-ef9qh8dv2d]

If this had a checkered front strap I'd be all over it.

[@BerettaM9A4-64]

Nice but it’s too big for concealed carry and 45 ammunition cost a fortune. I have a real world war 2 colt 45 that shoots like a new one I inherited from my dad..

[@TheFirearmGuy]

Super cool man. Sounds like a gem

[@eltenda]

I like it 😊

[@TheFirearmGuy]

Thanks bro

[@dannystephens7246]

I've shot a 1911 45 but I didn't care for it. The grip shape of the 1911's just don't fit my hand. If I'm going to carry a full size gun I will just carry my 1'st Generation Walther P99 9mm as it has better ergonomics and over twice the round capacity and is laser accurate along with being 100% reliable no matter what you feed it! 1911's are kind of an overpriced niche gun.

[@marcreynolds9345]

[@RogerMitchem-rl5mo]

Just what we need yet another 1911 🤦🏻‍♂️ Springfield armory is making way too many 1911s I truly believe that the gun community as a whole has been the peak in firearm innovation, let me ask everyone here a question, what can can this 1911 do that other 1911s and/or other handguns can’t do already? Nothing, we’ve pretty much reached the point where it’s a buy what you like cause it’s gonna do the same thing as the next gun on the market.

[@TheFirearmGuy]

I'm a 1911 junkie. You may not be. To those who love them, get excited with new ones

[@zacharydalton8132]

@RogerMitchem-rl5mo I feel the same exact way when I see another plastic gun. Oh look another plastic striker fired piece of shit. What can it do that the other 9,000 can’t….
