A new Springfield Armory SA-35 in town
my friend and neighbor David, aka, Deno56 and I went to a LGS about 20 miles away today. David was on the waiting list for the new SA-35 9mm. when he asked, Debbie, the sweetest gun shop employee in the world went to check. they had one come in and the person in front of David declined. we then drove home and very quickly put 30 rounds thru it. amazing out of the box accuracy. perfect fit and finish. I really like the wood grips. 15 yds hitting a 3" dinger most of the time. enjoy. look closely at the third picture and you can see the brass in the air above and behind the pistol. Lee

I am patiently waiting for mine. Paid in full the day I heard about them.
I got an excellent price, in my opinion, and will report back when it is in my mitts.

All the hits in the middle are from Lee. I did not want to mess up his group so I used the rest of the target

I mentioned to the wife that I wanted one. Why, she asked? I said I had a holster to fit it. Oh, OK she said. God, I love her. She just knows...

First gun in a long time that if I see, I'm bringing it home. Got a dealer in mind I'm going to contact about getting one.

Got the call at 5p today that mine was ready to pick up! Ran down to the shop, open until 6 and it took me 20 minutes to get there. The Colorado background check was running an hour when they called. I filled out the form right away after walking in. The shop stayed open an extra couple of minutes to wait for the check to come back so I wouldn't have to go back on Monday-that's service!
My first impression is that this is an outstanding pistol. No rattles, great trigger/reset, excellent fit/finish, really nice grips, extended safety snicks on/off precisely. If it shoots as good as it looks the only change I foresee making is to change the front sight to a night sight with bright orange or yellow/green ring around the tritium dot.
Can't get to the range until "Black Friday" so a report will have to wait. I have a large quantity of Browning 9mm 115gr fmj ammo to try it with-poetic, no? LOL.
