I have experience with with Springer's 4" models known as the Champion. Decent gun with tiny GI sights and none of the bells & whistles (beavertail, ring hammer, etc.). If you like the plain basic GI style guns - they are good ones. I've owned both a Mil-Spec and a Loaded Champion and both were good shooters and reliable. The price they're asking is a tad high to me for a GI model though...
