My first KYGUNCO purchase BUT will not be my last. I had my eye on this Operator since Springfield Armory announced it since I have a full size that needed a safe mate. KYGUNGO had an awesome price, their customer service was extremely responsive when I had a question with my order, and the item got to my FFL in 3 days. Very nice looking pistol and excellent experience!
