Slide looks a lot better than a Springfield I recently saw.

Any idea of the vintage? I have a 1911 manufactured in the Springfield Armory on 1914 (have to take it to the range some time after its 100th birthday) and it is still tight/smooth/accurate/dependable. Dad picked it up in the early '50s and maintained it with "loving care" and passed it to me when he passed. Still has the original two-tone mags.
