Springfield Armory Range Officer 1911

By Patrick Sweeney

One of Springfield’s latest 1911 pistols is the Range Officer. It’s built on a forged slide and forged frame, with a stainless steel match barrel, and the parts are to the same level of detail as Springfield’s TRP and Trophy Match models. Translation: The slide, frame and barrel are fitted as if they were going to finish their time there as high-dollar match pistols, but with an absolute level of reliability.

On the Range Officer, Springfield puts on the things you need and leaves off the things you don’t. Well, there are some things you might need or want that aren’t on the Range Officer, but they’d cost lots of money or time to build.

You get an adjustable rear sight, beavertail grip safety and a large but not competition-sized thumb safety. The Range Officer has a long trigger and Springfield cocobolo grips, all on a Parkerized frame and slide. The rear sight is machined down into the slide—a trick we did in the earliest days of IPSC competition, one that made for a pistol that was a lot easier to carry and a lot easier on your clothes and hands. Back then, having it done would cost us as much as a couple of hundred dollars. Now, you get it included on the gun.

The trigger is clean and crisp, and while the standard as-shipped weight is a bit on the high side for some shooters’ tastes at 40 ounces, a carry 1911 with a clean five-pound trigger is perfectly fine for me.

Left off are checkering, magazine funnels, guide rods and other competition- or owner-specific details. No stainless except for the barrel, no hard chrome, no extra serrations or pinstriping. In particular I like the standard recoil spring guide rod and parts. The more I shoot 1911s, the less enamored I am of the whole full-length guide rod phenomenon. And while a checkering, stippling or some other frontstrap treatment will certainly improve your scores, it won’t improve them as much as you’d think.

Oh, there’s one custom touch that Springfield does include: the mainspring housing. It comes checkered. But then, all the Springfield 1911A1s except the Mil-Spec come with checkered mainspring housings; it’s just something the company does. It also has the Springfield locking system, which allows you to lock your pistol and prevent it from functioning when you store it.
