I finally did it!!

After waiting for 3 months with it in Lay-away.
And giving up smoking so I could afford it.
I am now the owner of a brand new Springfield V-10 ultra compact
Bi-Tone 45 ACP.
Giving up a 3 pack a day habit is the hardest thing I have ever tried to do,
But I think it was worth it.
I shot 12 rounds out of it last night just to see if it was going to function right. It did, and I even hit the target(spraypaint can) from 10 yards.
After I go to the range today I'll post a range report and some pics if anyone can handle my Disjointed writing style

Range Report

I went out to the range with 200 rounds and came home with none.
50 rounds of 230 gr.FMJ Blazer Brass, 3.5" 6 round groups @ 25yrds
50 rounds of 230 gr. FMJ Blazer Alum. 4" 6 round groups@ 25yds
100 rounds 230 gr win.(value pac from WallMart) 3.5" 6 round groups@25yds.
All shooting was done from a standing Weaver Stance or leaning my elbows on a railing for a suport.
I gave it a quick clean up at 50 rounds to see how bad it was getting then
shot the rest of my ammo with breaks to shoot my Ruger 22-45 after
every 20 rounds or so.
I know I can get better groups than I did but I didn't have a rest available.
The best thing about the day was that I had NO problems at all with the gun, chambered, fired & ejected all the rounds without a hitch.
I'm a very happy camper!!

Thanks Guys,

For when it's under the pillow it gets win. 230 gr. jhp's
I've put over 600 rounds downrange so far andI havent had any problems with it. I think I'll keep it and name it George.
