Hey guys. I recently uploaded an in-depth review of my Springfield Armory Loaded 1911 which I've been shooting/carrying for some time, and wanted your thoughts and feedback on it.

The gist for those not able to watch the whole thing:

Springfield Loaded 1911 model PX9109LP .45 ACP
5" stainless barrel, parkerized finish, forged steel slide and frame, 2lb 13.5 oz loaded.

Features I like: Trijicon night sights, checkered mainspring housing, beavertail grip safety, extremely nice trigger.

Features I'm neutral on: Forward slide serrations.

Features I dislike/have changed: Full length 2-piece guide rod, Ambi safety, Torx grip screws.

Reliability: Very good. Out of 820 various type rounds fired to date, have only had 1 issue, a stovepipe FTE experienced while using subpar Perfecta ammo. Other stuff, including cheap aluminum case and my beginner-quality semi-wadcutter reloads, has worked fine.

Accuracy potential: Very high due to tight slide to frame fit and bushing to slide fit.

Overall I highly recommend this pistol, please go check out the vid for shooting footage and more details. I also have other reviews you can see by clicking on my channel link. Thanks!
