What’s Included
- Springfield Armory 8-round steel magazine
The forged carbon steel frame and slide, both wearing Springfield’s parkerized finish, deliver proven strength and corrosion resistance. The “NM” serial prefix indicates U.S. forging and in-house machining for critical tolerances.
A 5 in. match-grade stainless steel barrel with a 1:16 twist provides tight lock-up and consistent accuracy. The lowered and flared ejection port aids reliable extraction, while slanted rear cocking serrations offer a positive grip on the slide.
Controls follow the GI template: a short, solid trigger averaging a 5 lb break, a spur hammer, and a grip safety backed by a manual thumb safety. Springfield’s Integral Locking System (ILS) mainspring housing adds an additional security option without altering the pistol’s handling.
Fixed 3-dot sights—white-dot front and two-dot rear—deliver a clear sight picture in a variety of lighting conditions. Fully checkered hardwood grips give a secure, traditional feel that complements the pistol’s Mil-Spec heritage.
