Springfield Armory's Loaded line was built on a simple idea: sell a 1911 that already has the upgrades most owners would go pay a gunsmith to install. This one is a full-size .45 ACP with a 5-inch barrel in a parkerized finish, fitted with night sights. Expect the standard Loaded feature set of a beavertail grip safety, extended thumb safety, skeletonized trigger and hammer, and a match-grade barrel and bushing. In a full-size steel 1911, .45 ACP is famously soft shooting, and the single-action trigger is why the platform still sets the accuracy standard.
