What SA have I found on Gunbroker?

[Denmark116]

While doing my normal rounds on gunbroker.com, I came accross this listing:

http://www.gunbroker.com/auction/Vi...p?Item=16605789

What is this (Claims to be NIB) and emails have gone unanswered to the seller?

It looks like a mix between the Loaded Champion and the GI Mil-Spec Champion?

Is this what the GI Champion is going to be as opposed to how it looks on the website (w/commander style hammer)?

I have ran a google search on the SA Product number for the Mil-Spec Champion and the only two hits are SA's company website and Valor Products shows them as out of stock (w/o a picture)...

Please let me know your thoughts, as this is the gun that I am waiting to buy...

As stated in earlier post, the production run and the GI Champion is supposed to be this month...

Thank you...

Denmark

I don't know the answer to your question. You might try 1911forum.com . If no one here helps you I am sure they will be able too.

Looks to me like a standard Champion, probably manufactured before the term "Loaded" was used by Springfield. If you compare the photographs, there are many similarities.

Gunbroker Champion:

From the Springfield Armory Web site, Champion "Loaded":

Apart from sights, beavertail and trigger, there's not much to choose between them. I think the Gunbroker Champion is simply an early production model.
