I almost bought one after reading a bunch of reviews. Ended up with the real thing though. It's a low miles chrome with adjustable sights which was badly discolored from sitting in a drawer somewhere for 30 or so years... most paper is acidic and the finish was hazy with a few tiny rust spots... cleaned up nicely, great trigger since I pulled the mag disconnect out, and I only paid $670.00 for it. I don't think it had fired a full box from new... there is virtually no wear anywhere. Unless you "need" one now I would shop around a bit for a good original... it will probably appreciate in value over time, the Springfield perhaps not.
