Frequently Asked Questions
Springfield Range Officer 45 for sale
How much is the Springfield Range Officer?
Springfield Range Officer pistols typically cost $637 to $936 new, depending on caliber. The 9mm version runs lower, while .45 ACP models cost more. Used examples average around $638. Prices vary by retailer and availability.
Is the Springfield Range Officer a good gun?
Springfield Range Officer 1911s earn solid marks for range and target shooting. They're tightly fitted, accurate, and reasonably priced compared to custom 1911s. Best suited for training and marksmanship practice rather than carry. Note: this model is discontinued, so availability depends on used inventory.
What are the pros and cons of the .45 ACP?
.45 ACP delivers large, heavy bullets with proven effectiveness. Downsides include heavier recoil, lower magazine capacity than 9mm, and higher ammunition costs. It suits shooters who prioritize bullet diameter over round count; 9mm allows faster follow-up shots and cheaper practice for most users.
Does Springfield still make the Range Officer?
Springfield has not fully discontinued the Range Officer line. The Range Officer Elite remains in current production. Standard Range Officer models have largely been phased out in favor of the Garrison and Ronin lines, but the Range Officer name persists. Used models are also available on our marketplace.
Which is more powerful, .45 Colt or .45 ACP?
.45 Colt and .45 ACP are closely matched in standard factory loads. The .45 Colt can have an edge due to a heavier bullet at slightly higher velocity, though the difference is not massive. Modern hot .45 Colt loads in strong revolvers can push performance even further beyond .45 ACP.
Is .45 more expensive than 9mm?
Yes, .45 ACP typically costs more than 9mm. Standard .45 ACP runs $0.25–$0.45 per round; 9mm is roughly half that, reflecting higher production volume and smaller cartridge size. Self-defense .45 loads cost even more, around $0.85–$1.10 per round.
