Who It’s For

This handgun is suited for experienced shooters who require a high-capacity 10mm platform with competition-level accuracy. It is an excellent choice for USPSA Single Stack shooters who want the extra power of the 10mm cartridge at major matches. Backcountry hikers and hunters will appreciate the combination of a durable finish, accessory rail for lights or lasers, and the 10mm’s proven ability to stop large four-legged threats. Law enforcement professionals and armed citizens who prefer the 1911 platform but need more stopping power than standard calibers offer will find the Springfield 1911 Range Officer Elite Operator 10mm with Fiber Optic Front Sight to be a reliable tool. This pistol is not recommended for new shooters due to the recoil impulse of the 10mm cartridge and the manual of arms required for a single-action 1911.
