M45A1 - Anyone have one (the commercial version is exactly the same as the GI)? I'm curious as to how the dual recoil spring works and whether or not the firing pin doscnnect still gives a mushy feel to the trigger like other 1911's that use it.
For those that don't know, this is the Colt 1911 rail gun adaptation that the Marines started adopting as their issue sidearm. Now, I don't know all the details of which marines get the pistol and which don't.
What I do know is that I really like the platform and, IMHO, it speaks volumes that Marines are going back to a platform designed by JMB over 100 years ago.
fricking LOVE the FDE cerakote.
