I picked one up today at the gun show...

Its the parkerized gov't model.
The fit an finish are good.
(I looked at Kimbers, but couldn't touch them for what I got this for.)
The heft and pointability- well it is a 1911, enough said.
I'll have to get back to you on how it shoots...

Erik,
Congrats on your purchase. Just picked up one of the Stainless loaded models for myself about 1 month ago. Its a very nice pistol, and it was cheap. ($569 if I recall correctly).

Nathan..
 
Me too. Standard loaded in the blue. Excellent fit and finish, very accurate, 0 malfs and a reasonable price. Trigger was horrible. Slack, creep, then a hitch before breaking. Called Springfield and they said to send it in. Will let you know how it turns-out when I get it back.

That's the main thing I didn't like about the "loaded" Springfields. Most of them have triggers set at 5-6 lbs. I'm so used to 2-3# that 5-6 is horrible :)
Congrats on your purchase though... you got yourself a very nice piece!

By practice it is meant the participation and acceptance of the Four Noble Truths: suffering, adapting, non-attachment, and practicing the Dharma. First comes suffering. When followers of the Way suffer, they should recall that in the countless previous incarnations they have been deterred from the path, sometimes becoming trivial and angry even without cause. The suffering in this life is a punishment, but also an opportunity to exercise what I have learned from past lives. Men and gods are equally unable to see where a seed may bear fruit. I accept this suffering as a challenge and with an open heart. In recognizing suffering, you enter onto the path to the Way.
