Hunters and shooters get their choice of two 10mm 1911-style pistols from Springfield Armory this year: one with a 5-inch barrel and the other with a 6-inch barrel. Both are part of the TRP Operator family, which means they come with a Picatinny rail integral to the frame for mounting lights and lasers—fitting accessories for a low-light hog hunt. These are the first production 10mm pistols from Springfield and are loaded with features such as match-grade, stainless steel barrels; three-dot tritium night sights; G-10 grips; and corrosion-resistant Black-T finishes. See for yourself in this video straight from SHOT Show 2018. MSRP: $1790.
