So far the 140 Falcons shoot very well. 180gr HP next.

Very nice Springfield 'Omega' pistol, shootz. For those unfamiliar with the 'Omega', it pre-dates the 'Springfield Linkless'. The Omega, was a joint-version between West German firm: Peters-Stahl GmbH and Springfield Armory. The 'Linkless' was completely an American effort, from the various articles I've seen written about the 10mm 'Omega'. Here is a link to an article describing the gun's evolution, and a video of 'Big Daddy' Hoffman doing a 'range-test' on the weapon. As you can see, the accuracy was amazing, even with 200-gr. Blazer ammo. Reminds me somewhat of Les Baer's Monolith in the same caliber.

I thought the slide looked a little thin for am Omega. The "Linkless" feature explains it.
Good post!
The Omega is SO nice
Wish I had the funds to make one mine
But even then, I'd have to add a few "Embellishments" 8)
