I just picked one up a couple weeks ago. The rear sight is a tactical sight that allows you to rack it with one hand. Meaning; you can rack it with your boot or belt, or a table perhaps. A lot of gunfights result in limb hits. (the vast majority) So, having the ability to rack the weapon (charge it / put the round into battery after reload) gives it a useful feature. This is a very well constructed weapon. 10/10 I love my Sig Tac Ops but I have found that it's possible to love two kids equally.

Extremely tightly fit,still need a bushing wrench for disassembly after tens of thousands of rnds. Springfield builds some good pistols. I never did like full length guide rods on 1911's,Mil Spec is fine.👍

Springfield has been “almost” hitting out of the park recently. They continue to use smooth front straps and there is no reason for that any longer with the ability for machine checkering. Also for a gun called an Operator, there is no reason for white dot rear sights. Black out or tritium. Other new guns their doing similar stuff, almost getting it right but for a few small items. I like their stuff and own several TRPs and Ronins, but its always something small that could have made them perfect.

It’s not your fault Springfield sent you an Operator. This is a yawn. Springfield has currently four other bushing barrel .45 ACP Operator models with different trim and paint, all under the Loaded line. There are 2 cone barrel .45 ACP Operator models under the TRP line. The most recently released model has the lowest MSRP of $1099, which makes it the most logical to purchase, as you’ll spend less for stuff you’ll probably throw away. I’m sure they didn’t even have to disrupt the Operator assembly line except for a different roll mark. At least this model comes with VZ grips just as my TRP did. Great gun, but this model is just more of the same. Best Regards

Probably just filling in gaps. If you look at MSRP, it'll probably show that. What dealers charge is totally different. Either way, if I'd spend $1000+ on a 1911, a TRP is definitely the way to go. Where did you get your TRP for that price? My last springfield was a long beach operator and I paid the same price. TRP prices were around $1400 with a wait time of 2+ months.
