Nice piece, this is going to be my next handgun purchase.. What holster setup is that?

Safariland 6004 with a HSGI/SKD drop leg rig. Also looks like HSGI mag pouches attached.

Thank you David.

HOPLOETHOS, would you mind giving us some details and perhaps some background info on this gun?

My 'gotm4-customized' Springfield Armory 1911-A1 'Loaded'.

It ran 100% today at Fredericksburg USPSA monthly match. I competed in Single Stack division where I'm currently a B class shooter. It rained on us today about 85% of the time and I did have to relube the pistol once after I noticed that it was cycling slowly. Yes I shot this match on my birthday in the mud, rain and all. But it was damn fun as always. I cleaned my Wilson Combat Elite mags in deep puddles of water! Not one of the 6 I used for the match ever came apart for cleaning. I used PMC and MagTech 230gr FMJ ammo. 7 stages and about 140 rounds!

Sure David,

The details of the SA Operator w/ HSG Drop leg are as follows...

The Gun started as a Springfield Armory PX9105MLP aka "MC Operator"

I put a Hand fitted KART NM Barrel & Bushing, Chuck Rogers style Agressive Golf Ball Flat Mainsping Housing w/ Integral Lanyard, Simonich Gunner Grips, Dawson NOVAK Style Adjustable rear Sight (Vertical and Horizontal), 3M Tape Front Strap, Wilson #47 Mags.

HSG Universal Drop Leg w/ double Mags, Safariland 6004-5621-551 Holster installed into HSG Drop Leg.

Those are CORRECT part numbers for that specific model.

HTH YMMV


NICE BLASTER GOTM4 ...

So... where did you get that rear sight? Is that a Warren?

Very nice 1911.
