    So I recently bought a Springfield Compact 45.
    Awesome pistol, but when I picked it up from the shop, it was packed in a Glock clamshell case.
    Is that not a 1911 sacrilege?

    I always use a CZ box when I send guns out got work. They are the smallest ones I have . Makes finding a shipping box easy.

    Classic.. hahahahaha..

    I had a Kimber once (I know, don't say it) and it shot low and left. I kept it in the safe of course (fool) and ever since then.... everything I buy shoots low and left.. I'm sure it's a virus of some sort.. Ron

    I used a Glock tool (3/32" punch) to nudge out my extractor the other day on the 1911.

    That Melonite is good stuff. The extractor came out just fine. The gun is okay; the tool is dented. :lol:

    1911 wins.

    I think I would have asked the shop guy what the heck he was thinking since Springers always come in a Springfield case.
    Seems strange to me.

    It has the plastic pox sometimes referred to as "Glock Pox". You best drop it off here to avoid infecting your other, fancy 1911s.
