Seeing everyone else post their stuff gave me an itch. Before anyone says anything: Yes the white balance is "off". Yes it's intentional.

Here's one more:

I like the WB of the second image, the first rings a little too "off" in my mind. Nice clean series of shots. Hopefully your springer is one of the reliable ones, I've broken a bunch of parts on a few.

It's been pretty reliable so far. But it only has ~2k rounds through it. I've just barely broken it in. :D I hope I don't end up with your luck!

I was doing ammo and weapon testing and shooting 1,000-2,000+ rounds a day. Some of it was intentionally difficult on the weapons. I've always found the 5" versions to be more reliable than the 4", which is what most of the problems were with.

I love springfields. I sold a V10 back in 2004 for rent money. Very sad day that was, but I had to pay my rent.

I pains me to hear someone sold a V10 for rent money. I'd honestly sell my 5D2 before I'd part with this Springer. Though I'd probably sell my car before I'd sell my 5D2. I've got priority issues :)

Yeah and they are no longer sold. I saw one on gunbroker for 700$ ! The damn thing went up in value big time! Makes me mad. But, I didn't get evicted, so thats good too :)
