TRP Operator

[Joshua M.]

I have been in the market for a full size 1911,so I traded my Kimber Ultra CDPII for a Springer TRP Operator...I was wandering if anyone had an idea on about what these TRP's are worth. I am happy with the trade, as all of them that I have seen are in the price range of what I was wanting out of my Ultra, but I can't find any exactly like it. It has a full length bull barrell, and full length rail, Army Kote, in really good condition, and it is a hell of a shooter. Why can't I find any similar to this with the full length rail? Is it a limited run, or am I just looking in the wrong spot? I am not real familiar with Springers. Thanks...and. Happy Thanksgiving...-Joshua

Congrats!!!

The TRP full rail is an older/discontinued model and they have since went with the shorter rail.
I've seen used ones selling for $1400-$1500

if you ever want to get rid of it, you should be able to get your money back out of it.

id like to have one have the loaded model how much better is the TRP or Trophy Match

 

[Quack]

the TRP/TM has more attention to fitting, and is a 2.5"@25yard gun, while the Loaded is rated as a 3.5"@25yard gun. The TRP/TM use 1pc barrels, while the Loaded used 2pc barrels (it might have changed now). The TRP/TM are built in the US, while the Loaded could either be built in Brazil or Illinois.

which is better TRP or Trophy match

Do you want fixed/night sights? Then the TRP
Armory Note (black finish)? TRP

they are the same guns, but one is a game gun and the other is a defense gun.

Box for mine says the TRP NS AKot MSRP is $1,741.00. Wishful thinking?

Under that it says $1599.99.

Basically used you're looking at something south of $1500 depending on condition. Smaller dollars nowadays.
