Nice Banshee by the way. Looks interesting.

I passed the H&K USC (carbine) .45 to my oldest son and he enjoys it a lot. I think it is a similar concept/platform but the Banshee looks way more serious.


Have fun with it.

Michael,

Sounds like a perfect setup for the gun. I just realized you are in Apache Junction. I'm in northern Peoria off the 303. I shoot at Cowtown range which is a private shooting facility about 15 minutes from my home. It would be a trek up here from where you are located, but if you are ever interested in trying it out, let me know. I shoot both short (handguns, PCC, shotgun, and AR) and long range(precision rifle out to 1380 yds at steel) 1-2 times a week.

I had a Springfield SA Trophy Match for a while. It became a safe queen so I sold it on.

My favorite 1911 is my SA Champion Operator. It has a couple SA Custom Shop tweaks.

I have not been following their variations closely but I believe the Champion Operator is no longer available? I do like the 4" bbl and lightweight platform balance in the hand.

I went for the lightweight/compact platform of the EMP series in the .40 cal but I honestly do not care for it as much as I thought I would.

You are correct. The Champion Operator no longer shows as a current model on SA's website.

The 1911 Loaded model comes close in features and MSRP to my Champion Operator.
