Bought one and had it shipped to my FFL in CA, The privouse owner installed the G-10 grips which knocked it out of compliance. Fortunately my FFL called the seller before he shipped and told him to install the origin "Sandpaper" grips that the gun was tested with in CA. I was able to pickup my Pistol with no issues after that. FFL told me if it had arrived with different grips....he could not have delivered it to me. Crazy, But that's CA....this state is nuts!
Also I believe the full rails are limited run models only. They are not always in production. At least that is what the seller was telling me. I got mine in 2015 and I haven’t seen many full rails come up for sale at all. Mine also came with a second set of grips. They feel like holding onto sandpaper and prefer the G10’s at the range
If you own all these, you have excellent taste! Every gun that I look into to buy you have a review on, especially a lot of guns that people don't review for some reason.
Awesome firearm. I have a springfield emp 40 1911 I've had for several years now, and I love it. Springfield is really putting out some outstanding 1911 style weapons.
@redneck axeman Springfield makes really good 1911s with good quality at a decent price. Some higher end 1911 companies should take not. Thanks for watching, greatly appreciated!
@@KeanonGilliamSlang369 just any fyi safariland makes an als holster for most of the springfield 1911 applications. I was able to find one on Amazon for my emp for under $100.
I recommend the QVO Tactical holsters. Not only is it hard to find a TRP full rail it’s even harder to find one that allows you to leave your weapon light on it while holstered. QVO does both. I prefer carrying with a IWB holster and my QVO allows me carrying my TRP with my Surefire X300U attached and the holster I got is IWB. I have the QVO Tactical “more discreet” IWB made FOR the TRP w/ Surefire and it’s great.
@@KeanonGilliamSlang369 I still don't have a 1911 . My SAO LEGION is the closest to that . Was planning on buying myself one for Christmas . But am out of work with a broken left wrist . There goes my gun 💰💰💰 . ☹️☹️☹️ .
That 1911 looks awesome and I love that bull barrel. It would appear that sucker is accurate by the huge hole in the target. Have a nice weekend brother.
@@KeanonGilliamSlang369 I know, I'm so far behind. I've taken several videos but just been way busy with the holidays and work. This week will be the first week in a while where I don't have appointments after work. I will have to buckle down and just do it. :)
Great review~ I'm in Las Vegas & need a 10rd or less pistol to keep in my car when I'm traveling to California. I really love the full length rail & bull barrel. So strange about the CA compliant thing~ I also think it's because of the lock but someone commented that it's the GRIPS? If I'm in CA & some stuff goes down, I definitely want to have a CA compliant gun, but the first thing I would do is put Hogue grips on it & I don't know if that would screw the CA compliant thing~ even if it's because they cover the lock.
@jmsmikey Your DOJ is tough on you guys. I'd contact Springfield Armory to check on what you can add etc. Enjoy the firearm! Thanks for watching, greatly appreciate it!
@@KeanonGilliamSlang369 Well, I live in Nevada~ which is a gunslinger state so i'm good. I just need a car gun for driving through the desert~ 10rds or less. I think this would be a great choice.
I have a full Rail TRP and you need not have to use a tool for takedown ...who would want tht ? What if you drop it in the field?? I got a guide rod from Dawson Precision out of texas and it allows full takedown with no tools.
@whopper preciado It's on the DOJ roster luckily for you guys. Check your DOJ or better off let it go and be glad. Thanks for watching, greatly appreciate it!
California legal means: extra, unnecessary parts that are prone to fail when you need your firearm the most, while adding only the illusion of additional safety.
@Nhan Nguyen Thanks. Yes there will be some price gouging because people are desperate to buy during the pandemic. Thanks for watching, greatly appreciated!
@@KeanonGilliamSlang369 2 hours waiting to get inside the store, and most guns stores in my area are all out of 9mm, 380acp, .40acp, hollow point ammo, all they have left are $6,000 Wilson Combat, $5000 Night Hawk, $3000 Ed Brown 1911... there's 1 store just sold 2 of this Spring Field TRP for $1895 + tax. Ohhh I forgot to mention that all Mossberg, Remington shotguns are out, and forget about finding the Benelli M4 right now. Please take good care of yourself and family during this time.
Hey there! So if my serial number on paperwork doesn't have the CA on it, does that mean mine is the off roster, non-ca compliant version?? Because I have no indication on my paperwork or serial # that it is Ca version, although I believe my grip has the keyhole you mentioned?
@VernDogg Millionaire If you bought the firearm from an FFL in CA then it's CA compliant. Your dealer is restricted and only will be supplied CA compliant firearms. You can also check with your FFL.
@@KeanonGilliamSlang369 yea it was a private party transfer so it could've been off roster forsure and the DROS paperwork doesn't have CA listed on the serial either so I'm curoius.. I did leave SA a voicemail today to see if they could look up my serial and get back to me so we'll see! I have a feeling it is the ca compliant though with the keyhole like you were saying
@@vernievuitton technically it was off roster and it wasn’t. I had the same thing happen to me. So what happened was that originally the firearm was off roster due to mag capacity and when you did the ppt, they switched the mag. To make it complaint for the ppt. The person that did the ppt either was a cop or got it from a cop. I have a fn5.7 that was off roster “technically” buts it’s exactly the same as any other. It’s just because of the mag capacity. The cop that did the ppt with me just needed to provide a suitable mag.
Don't mind Bull barrels or take down tool, ok with full length guide rods and that rail is nice. Hard to not like 1911's. California has a Roster, firearms must meet certain standards and being a communist state the manufacturer must pay bribe to be on the compliant list. Those grips have nothing to do with compliance. Nice pistol! Great shooting!
@Munoz360 Yes it is, I've seen this firearm as high at $1600, depending where you live. Congrats on your firearm! Thanks for watching, greatly appreciated! 👍
You can pick these up around 1200 but in these times you gotta pay to play so not too bad I was lucky to of had picked up a stainless h&k usp compact 9mm for 700 a couple years ago that I traded for a full rail trp because the hooked trigger on the usp threw me off a lot Enjoy your trp!
My last Springfield. I hated the political stuff but I couldn't deny their quality. The gun shop I work at, people are starting to get back with Springfield mainly with the Saint ARs and the Hellcat. Shame that the American workers were caught up in their issues.
The previous owner probably got rid of the Full rail operator the same reason i got rid of mine, it's the front and backstrap checkering, it hurts after 50 or so rounds What was Springfield armory thinking, when they build their 1911 with 20 lpi front n back, instead of 25 or 30.
@Flinchinq I haven't used a holster with it yet, however I'm going to get a holster for it from QVO Tactical. They make a holster for it with and without a light. Thanks for watching, greatly appreciate it!
