I have a quick question, can someone explain to me the advantages or need of a flared and lowered ejection port? I've heard it helps with the ejection of spent brass and not getting
it dinged up, apart from adding aesthetic value to the gun. The Springfield Armory loaded model comes with a flare and lowered ejection Port, it seems the the Colt does not ETA: what about the main spring housing? Flat or rounded? This is just a preference in terms of how the grip feels in one's hand?

Yes, the MSH decision will be up to you and how it feels in your hand. I have medium to small hands so, I prefer the flat. I would go to your LGS and hold a few rounded and a few flat and see how it feels to you. It also helps with point ability (at least for me) as well.

I like Grab-a-gun as well as Buds, both places are good to deal with. Also, Buds does price matching and/or "OBO Or Best Offer" plus free shipping.

Ejection port is nice to have modified but not necessary. A gun with a weak or bent ejector will still eject but if its not flared it might be problematic. Not necessary but I do prefer it.
I don't own a SA, but a buddy is a big SA fan has a V12, range officer and many many other. The V12 is probably the best Springer out there, love that thing. His range officer is pretty nice too, wouldn't be ashamed to own that piece either!! I have used buds a couple of times and found they are excellent. Never had an issue with them. Can't speak for Grabagun......

Love my full-size Springfield and I don't find carrying it difficult, pitor. However, I'd also enjoy having a Commander size, too and will one day. Lot's of decent 1911s can be had for $1K so good luck in your search.
WARNING, 1911s are like Lays potato chips, you can't have just one! ![]()
