From their web site...

The Springfield Armory TRP 10mm RMR – one with a 5” barrel, and one with a 6” barrel – are now available with a Trijicon Ruggedized Miniature Reflex (RMR) sight specifically milled into the slide of Springfield Armory’s most elite production 1911.

Springfield Armory chose Trijicon, the proven leader in rugged red-dot optics, for its ability to stand up to the power of the formidable 10mm round. The sight is crafted from 7075-T6 aluminum to mil-spec standards and has a patented shape that absorbs impacts and diverts stresses away from the lens, increasing durability.

The 5” and 6” TRP 10mm RMRs feature forged National Match frames and slides, precision-fit to match-grade stainless steel fully supported barrels. Frames and slides are Black-T finished to withstand heavy use and harsh environments.

The front strap and mainspring housing are checkered in Posi-Lock™ for a firm yet comfortable hold. A SA Magwell/Grip System allows for rapid mag changes under stress without adding any more bulk to the contour of the gun. Once the ambidextrous safety lever is flipped, the Springfield Armory Gen 2 Speed Trigger, calibrated to a crisp 4.5- to 5-pound pull, provides an amazingly clean break. Recoil is managed through extra mass in the reciprocating assembly and frame, making the power of the 10mm round easy on the operator. Each TRP 10mm RMR is shipped with two 9-round magazines.

Take Springfield Armory’s most elite production platform, the TRP, and add a Trijicon Ruggedized Miniature Reflex optic, and you’ve got a critical-use 1911 like nothing else – the new TRP 10mm RMR.

The 2018 NRA Annual Meeting has not disappointed for new product releases, at least.

 I have purchased two 10mm pistols in the past few months and have been pleased with each of them.  However, I suspect before summer is over, there will be a third 10mm in my inventory.

It's interesting to note that this TRP with RMR doesn't have a picatinny rail on the frame.  The non-RMR does.  This makes zero sense to me.  I prefer a weapon-mounted light on my carry guns, and the TRP designation (Tactical Response Pistol) would seem to demand for a rail.

I will be completely honest and say that in my excitement over this new model, I didn't even notice the lack of the rail until my buddy, Mark, pointed it out on the podcast episode that will be released later today.  When he said it, I did a double-take and was immediately confused by what I saw.

Weird, Springfield.  Really weird.
