The Ultimate Tactical Response Pistol

About this video

Colion reviews Springfield’s updated TRP (Tactical Response Pistol) models, now featuring optics-ready slides for red dot mounting. He examines both the 9mm and .45 ACP versions, expressing enthusiasm for the modernized features while discussing the tradeoffs of single-stack 1911 capacity versus aesthetics and shootability. Colion particularly praises the trigger quality and overall shooting experience with red dots mounted.

Key takeaways

• Colion explains that Springfield updated the TRP line to be optics-ready, allowing red dot mounting which he considers essential for a gun marketed as ’tactical'
• According to Colion, the 9mm version frustrates him due to limited capacity in such a beautiful, well-shooting platform, while the .45 ACP version represents his ideal full-size 1911 configuration
• Colion notes that these updated TRPs feature improved triggers compared to previous Springfield 1911s, and that red dot optics significantly enhance the shooting experience and usability at distance
