Springfield Armory 1911 MC Operator .45acp 3/18/16…

Good afternoon all and Happy Friday!!! This is only the second one of these 1911’s the shop has ever been able to get its hands on. The Springfield Armory 1911 MC Operator is built on a full-size steel frame with an integral accessory rail. The pistol features a duo-tone black and olive drab green version of Springfield’s proprietary Armory Kote finish. This finish gives the pistol a matte, low-glare appearance and protects the metal. The 5 inch barrel is match grade and made from stainless steel. The slide features slanted serrations on the front and rear. The mainspring housing is flat and includes the Springfield Armory I.L.S. The pistol has a Lightweight Delta hammer and a beavertail grip safety, which features a raised memory pad for positive engagement. The extended ambidextrous thumb safety and long aluminum match-grade trigger are upgraded features that are standard to the Loaded Series. The fixed combat 3-Dot sights feature tritium inserts. The ejection port is lowered and flared, and the pistol is fitted with a standard guide rod. The MC Operator comes with G-10 grips held in place with Torx head grip screws.  She comes with two 7 round magazines.  This is a fantastic sidearm worthy of looking at if you are in the market for a 1911.  Tremendous bang for the buck with most of the same features that the TRP line has.  As always, thank you for reading the Blog at gunshinearms.com
