I literally cannot say...
I literally cannot say enough good about this gun. I've wanted it for a few years and now that I finally have it, it did not disappoint. Went straight to the range after picking it up and immediately ran 100 rounds through it, no oil, nothing and it performed flawlessly. Even with Federal Aluminum case ammunition, no jams, FTEs or FTFs and a roughly 1" shot group at 15 yards. Most accurate handgun I've ever fired and about 500 rounds later, the most reliable. Owned it for about a month now and not a single issue. The fit, finish and trigger are all amazing. It gets compliments every time I go to the range. I I didn't think the 1911 trigger could get any better but this trigger is so light with a crisp break it's amazing. The aluminium frame makes it noticeably lighter but NOT cheap feeling. Perfectly balanced with a loaded mag and light enough for EDC. You can pay a lot more for a 1911 show piece or you can spend a grand on one this one that performs just as well and is tough enough for the worst conditions. Nothing stops this gun. It more than lives up to the Operator name and I wouldn't hesitate to trust my life with it. The gun comes with a paddle holster, mag holster and 2 mags. Plus at the time of this review, with Springfield's current promotion, they will send you an additional holster, mag holster (the same ones the gun comes with) and FOUR magazines for FREE. If you're considering this Springfield, whether your considering something cheaper than an overpriced 1911 or considering your first 1911, do yourself a favor and don't hesitate to buy this one. With Springfield's reputation and Buds excellent service, you will NOT be disappointed.

This Springfield is...
This Springfield is excellent. Great gun and great service from Bud's as usual. The 1911 Operator was accurate right out of the box. I've put 400 rounds through it so far and it is a joy to shoot. Smooth as silk and it ate all different brands of ammo flawlessly. If you're looking for a great 1911 that's not gonna cost $1500 or more, then look no further. This is the second firearm I've purchased from Bud's and it won't be the last, top notch service.
