I'm no 1911 expert at all and I'm not putting down Springer 1911's. I just think that an American classic should be American made. I've never understood why Springfield uses Brazilian frames. When I think of Springfield Armory, I think of the USA. Its just one of those things that irks me.
Any idea why they do this? Same with the XD series being Croatian. Again, not knocking them, just wonder why a company as seemingly American as S/A doesn't make their big hits here?
