It is always nice when you reluctantly sell a gun and then it happens to be whenever you flip through a magezine you see said gun on every other page or read a killer review on it(sarcasm).
Needless to say but ill be re-buying a Springfield M1A and never getting rid of it, thought about a polytech but I'm still not sure.
BTW, I like the basic-ness of the Regent, which would have been my 3rd or 4th choice for a 1911 but I ended up with the Springfield GI .45.
I also like the Remington Rand 1911's.
