You know that idea is something James @ TFB TV would be expected to do. Mr tight shorts will never let that go unchallenged. Both of you will repel, detail strip left handed, in banana hammocks, while bikini wearing ladies in gorilla masks fly by and throw bananas at you both, on New Years Eve during the countdown and ball drop. Your battle will be legendary!
Got mine last week. My first 1911. Got it on sale, new in box for $649.00.
Love it.
I purchased a Garrison and absolutely love it. They are very well made.
Springfield sure knows how to make 1911’s. Can’t wait to see how the hi-power line fills out.
I just purchased the blued Springfield armory garrison and your video was a big part of why I got it.
Took it to the range today and I'm in love!
Very accurate and beautiful to boot.
Thanks for all the informative gun videos!
Had my garrison for 8 months now, it’s a awesome sidearm, I knew when I picked it up above all the rest, I was going to get it
Thank you for that review! Picked up my stainless Garrison today
Hope you enjoy it!
I hope to see more blued guns in the near future. At 43, I'm just old enough to remember when wood and bluing were the norm.
44 here and yea I remember blued 1911s back in the late 90s. I remember spraying them with break free and they didn’t run well with the reloaded ammo I brought then It’s a different world now.
@ShimmerySound the additional maintenance for a blued gun is minimal compared to stainless. I I’ve got several of both and if you simply wipe down your firearms after use neither will rust easily.
I’m 30 and I grew up with all metal and steel guns, mostly blued. Plastic guns existed but dad didn’t buy em. I now have a collection of both styles.
@ShimmerySound that's why they make em both! So we can both get something we prefer. I just love the look of blueing especially on a classic gun like this. 👍
@ShimmerySound I like both. However, stainless doesn't mean "not stain-able", it means "stain-less". All firearms requires their finishes to be maintained no matter what finish they have.
I’m loving Springfield more and more. Never owned one until the Hellcat, now I want the Emissary, High Power and one of those Victor pistols
I have the Emissary amazing 1911
Don't forget about the best battle rifle M14/M1a
Don't forget to check out their scout rifles like the socom16
Have the Springfield Mil-Spec 1911. Already have the Beretta M9 so two generations of U.S. military sidearms! Want the Springfield SA-35 Hi-Power for the history lesson. Not interested in the Sig M17 but eventually may forced to buy it to complete the “modern” U.S. pistol sidearm legacy. Might as well. Got the 1911 and M9 already.
Dave, I love the way you opened this video with my favorite sound. A 1911 slamming a round into the chamber!
Great Video!! Let me tell you I love my Garrison is solid 1911 for the price. So far over 300 rds at the range no problem, very solid and for really fair price
Great to get back to basics with the Garrison, honestly a great Deal in 1911 pistols !
LOVE both of my Garrison pistols! Like my blued steel 45ACP more than my stainless 45ACP. The stainless one has a couple of small flaws and a heavier trigger than the blued one. My blued one is flawless with an impeccable finish and an excellent trigger! Thanks for sharing your input on these!
Beautiful blued gun there. Springfield really is doing great !
I just got my Garrison and I love it
I just recently purchased the Mil-Spec 1911. It feel nice…And very heavy. It’s also around $250 cheaper than the Garrison. I want it because the Mil-Spec has that old, classic ancient WW II 1911A1 look…Yes, I know it has a few modern additions but laymen will never tell the tale. I always say if I have to pay $1,200 for a 1911, I might as well get a second FN FNX-45 Tac! The Mil-Spec fits the bill nicely!
A good solid offering by Springfield Armory. They certainly know how to manufacture 1911s. Thanks for posting your review on this product.
Hello Justin. Great review man. The Garrison sure seems like a solid platform to build from if one wanted to upgrade a 1911. The only change that I'd make to it would a be set of TruGlo fiber optic tritium low profile sights. I've found these to be excellent sights day or night (yep! the glow in the dark) as they seem to wind up on many of my semi auto hand guns, and a bevy of good 8 round magazines. I've owned a few 1911's over the years from Colt, Kimber, Springfield Armory, even had a WWII Ithaca manufactured 1911A1 service pistol. The Garrison has definitely gotten my attention. Thanks for the review. Be safe.
Excellent review, I chose the stainless model and love it! Have added a 17# flat wire spring and guide rod with the shock buffer from W/C and the action on the gun is even smoother.
After buying a Glock g40 and it failed right out of the box and no support from Glock I found the xdm10 I bought it and it’s been the best gun yet
I have a Garrison just like the one in the video. I love it and very beautiful and well made firearm!
I own one in 9mm. Great gun for the money. I’ve always liked the standard 1911’s, Mil-Spec. This is a Mil-Spec with the features that folks would have done to the A1’s to make them better.
I love mine and might get another in 45.
Based on your reviews I purchased one and I really love that Springfield the Garrison. The fit and finish is phenomenal. Unfortunately I haven't made it out to the range yet.But can't wait. Love your videos.👍
Great shooting as always Justin!
Justin, thanks to your channel my gun collection keeps on growing, thanks buddy!😆😆😆👍
😂😂😂🤭🤗
It is nice to see Brazil and all the other countries really upping their game when building these guns and then sending to the US for final assembly.
Are you say the Garrison is made in Brazil.
@@roadrunnergtx68 the parts are made in other countries, assembled in the US out of foreign parts.
@@xtreme4stringbass You still haven't provided evidence on your claim
Prove it?
@@dinsixiengmay9781 I called them. They said they are made here.
my only complaint would be that it only comes with one mag. come on springfield, what are you thinking? awesome review as always dave.
Especially since their magazines are not that expensive , they should have been at least 2 mags
Agree in principal...but I always replace 1911 mags with Wilsons or McCormicks. So not a big deal for me. (but yes, all mfr's should include at least 2 mags).
McCormack is now Wilson since McCormack died and Bill bought the magazine company.
If you're a true 1911 aficionado, that doesn't matter because you already have 20 or more Wilson Combat mags.
At least for the price it can be justified. Ask this question to Kimber when they send you their $2000 1911 with one crappy mag. At least springfield's guns work flawlessly out of the box :)
I've had my Garrison .45 for almost a year now and already put roughly 2,500 rounds through her and she's hardly ever let me down!!
Some mods I've made are: I swapped the factory 16 lb recoil spring for a Wilson Combat 18.5 lb spring. Handles the recoil of 230 grain .45s noticeably better than the 16 lb spring. Adds to the reliability too! I also added a Wilson Combat shok buff. Minimizes slide to frame battering and softens up recoil even more.
Really enjoyed your video I like how you kept the weapon in the frame most of the time beautiful.
You had me wanting to watch the next episode.......until the speedo!
The Mr. Garrison edition. 🤣😂
great gun!
Bought one this morning
I like the .45 cal "shakes" @ 3:50 ... I get them too.
That ending. 😂😂😂👌. Very nice pistol
Just got mine 5 days ago!! Only downside is it comes with one 7 round mag lol
Thanks for the outstanding video in the Garrison. I picked one up yesterday at my local firearms store. I have a question. I saw the ear plugs you wear. What brand are they and do you recommend them. Thank you
Another quality review
Hey J.O. ,i might have missed it in your video, but is the garrison a series 70 1911? If so, that would account for the nice trigger.......
All Springfield 1911 are series 70, which... is why I love Springfield!! I just picked up a Garrison and a Mil Spec, but haven't had time to shoot either one yet...
Very good video. I have one in stainless. I really like it. It shoots very good. You did a very good job.
It seems like more and more gun companies are only providing one magazine to keep the cost of the gun down and be competitive.
Well, with 1911, it’s not bad if you want more mags and don’t mind the 7 rounders. I bought 2x 7 rounders for around $30. Not bad at all….Compared to the FN FNX-45 Tac mag I had to get. Yes, the original FNX had three mags three years ago. But yeah, these days, FN removed a mag to keep the price the same. I keep one loaded for home defense and one mag is simply no fun so bit the bullet and got a second one….Total price is $63….!!!! Sigh, you can get four 1911 7 rounders with that!
You recently reviewed the Emissary. Between the Garrison and the Emissary (I know they're not exactly same and there's a price difference) which one would you recommend, or which one would you buy as your first 1911. Furthermore, the Garrison (.45) or the Emissary 9mm (as first 1911 given the current ammo sit.)? Thank you for the reviews.
Yes, they are both awesome and have significant differences - but if I'm recommending a first 1911 or one to someone that is really budget minded, it will be the Garrison. It has all the core features plus a few - and the quality is excellent (and not "for the price"... it's just plain excellent).
@@JustinOpinionChannel Thank you!
If you want to go even cheaper, Springfield also make the Mil-Spec 1911 that’s only $550 but it’s even more “no-frill” than the Garrison. However it matters where it counts the most, trigger, reliability and looks. It has the classical WW II M1911A1 look down pat with a few modern upgrades that’s it. A great consideration if you want an entry level 1911 and don’t want to break the bank on a $1,200 Kimber.
Give me one good reason I would buy this over a less expensive Rock Island?
For me, all the Springfield 1911s I have feel better fit and finish, I'm not sure about ria warranty but Springfield has the best in the business. Springfield hands down.
Umm fit and finish? That’s two I’m sorry 😂
Made in USA
Looks great!
Do you really think for one min that with today's cnc machines you are sacrificing 1 thing seriously ?fantastic content thanks for sharing.
Cool pistol. Would love that.
I wonder if this model comes with the forged frame, slide and barrel that Springfield has been putting on their 1911s?
It does
Thanks!
All springfield armory 1911s come with forged frame, slide, and match grade barrel. Just check their website, they are really strong in this area of manufacturing.
Springfield needs to procure more unobtainium to crank out more SA-35s. Price gouging on those hard to find pistols is just stoooopid right now. They have plenty of 1911s right now.
Guess we'll have to wait another year then. I'm in no hurry. Lol
A SA-35 is 100% on my get list.....but I will wait for human pricing on them....
It’s okay, based on Garand Thumbs higher round count review, the SA-35 has extractor issues. I’m happy to wait for a higher serial number of it, by then it’ll be an even more superb pistol
Nice 👍
Cool,gun
Good looking rig but I prefer the Emissary for the cost , merry Christmas Justin
Choices are good!
It s Better than Taurus PT 1911?..
Do you need thin line grips for this?
This gun does come with thin grips. If you swap them for regular grips, the bushings will also need swapping
Love it i want one
I am with you blued my favourite all my guns are blued
I'd prefer the Emissary but since it's 400 bucks more I'd go with this one instead.
Cannot wait for that rappel!🤣
Good stuff
On the average, Springfield is the one to go to and the XDM. I don't
Know about the new Palmer nurse. Cause there trying to make tham like Glock and otherswith no Thrills now But there 1911 Is the best
Ok you got me when you said speedo, I've got to see that!!! 😁 Looking seriously at purchasing the Garrison!?
Wish it was AMBIDEXTROUS.
Wish they did this in a commander and in 9mm
Me too! Or just in 9mm I'd be happy
Check out the EMP 4 ccc.
@@Astro_touches_children yeah but it has proprietary mags and has a bull barrel.
How much ?!
I got a stainless one from gunbroker for 760 (not including tax and shipping). Blued ones are about $50 less
Cranking out new models while people are waiting over a year for the old models that they can't keep up with .......
Obviously, you haven't tried to buy any Nikon products lately.... it's kind of a thing everywhere. But I get your frustration, and share it. I think we're struggling on both ends of the supply/demand relationship these days.
@@JustinOpinionChannel f j b...maybe
The new haircut looks much better
Praise the lord John M Browning and the .45 1911.
🔫😎🦅😎🔫
Garrison or Ruger SR1911
Springfield over Ruger ANY day!! Springfield is series 70 trigger vs Ruger series 80... Springfield is forged vs Ruger is cast frames....
@@petert8807 The Ruger is series 70 as well,.I have both, the Springfield is much nicer. The Ruger is for sale.
I say springfield, because all their 1911s have forged slides, frames, and forged match grade barrels. Including their mil spec 1911s . Ruger, i believe uses the casting process on their 1911s .

Not on the California roster. Wish it was.
Mine should be in my hands in 1 week 😜😜pew pew..
Springfield just keeps cranking out variants of the same 1911. Not interested.
@Dale Ross You want a 1911 go for it. Nothing wrong with them. But a new look variant every other week is just marketing.
I still haven’t forgiven Springfield Armory. Nice gun though.
Nowhere near as interesting as SA35
Why do we need another 1911? They are an obsolete relic of the past.
Prove it.
@@roadrunnergtx68 Limited capacity. Single action only trigger. Complicated disassembly. There are so many pistols based on the Browning tilting barrel that remedy these problems that have been remedied for decades, would I risk my family's lives to a 1911? You bet I would, I would bet my family's lives on a 1851 Colt navy as well, they are finely crafted and well designed weapons, but both are obsolete compared to a Cz-75, Beretta M-9 or a (forgive me lord) Glock 17.
They are all limited capacity. Designed by the legendary John Moses Browning, an American who also designed the Browning 9mm high power (Incidentally he died on the bench designing the high power in Belgium and it took Fabrique Nationale several years to finalize his work). The 1911 is the universal platform of all automatic pistols. Browning also designed the BAR, an auto loading rifle chambered in 30-06. For you to say it's an obsolete relic of the past is immature and absurd. Do your homework before you post ridiculous comments.
@@roadrunnergtx68 Not just Browning, but as important to the high power design was Dieudonné Saive, a genius in his own right, who worked closely with Browning. So, what do you mean "they are all limited capacity"? I have an older Cz-75 so it's capacity is 15 rounds, but that is still considered "high capacity," the Beretta M-9 comes with a 17 round mag so I think that qualifies as high capacity too. Oh and the Beretta is a delayed locking block, not a tilting barrel, So the1911 is OBVIOUSLY NOT the universal platform that you want to believe so badly, the Makorov, the H&K P-7, the high point, the Walther ppk, all use a different system, oh and btw, the Walther pp models were the first to come in double / single action in 1938!
Also the Browning automatic rifle action isn't used in most firearms today. So who hasn't done his homework, who is acting immature? I get it, I hurt yer little feelers, but it is you, sir, that needs to do some homework, to think I worked the last 10 hours and come home to your sad sack, whiny BULLSHIT, thanks dad.
@@DanielMartinez-lz3ot All this information you just discovered I already know. I own a Berreta, Glock, SA XDM, S&W M&P just to name a couple. I've been buying firearms when you were floating in your daddy's little left testicle. A pistol with a 19 rnd mag or whatever is still limited to 19 rnds. You also don't know math. Stick to your games on your phone, it's what little punks like you do best.
Chip McCormick mags are junk.
@rowdy boner I own all three. Tripp, Wilson, Chip. Never had a problem.
Been going back and forth on how much I want to spend for something I'm likely to only use at a range, from the Garrison to a TRP or further up to a Dan Wesson (though a lot of the stories I've seen about galling and rust issues has kind of turned me off to that idea) only thing is I've been looking for a stainless model and to probably no surprise damn things are hard to come by.
