I always intended to get one of the .380 Government Models, so I wish Colt would make them again.
Cylinder & Slide used to do a custom job on them including a compensator on the slide. It's nickname was "The Full-House Mouse." I wish I'd had one of those made up back then.

A regular-production Python.
Basic Series-70 1911's for a sane price.
Is the Detective Special beind made anymore? I'd like one of those in SS.

The 22-cal version of the Single Action Army. Had one of those about 18 years ago, and foolishly let it get away.
Actually, the then-wife loaned it to "a friend", over my objections, and "friend" moved out of state......Out to Kali, as I recall

Well, Dr Rob beat to the Lightning. But I'd also like a 1903 in .38 Super (not the same as the 1903 hammerless). They look neat, in an odd sort of way.

pre-70 series Govt Model
And, how about - - -
the 1908 Pocket model, with alloy frame. Slickest little pistol around but a bit heavy for pocket carry. Also-- shortened by, say, 1/2 to 3/4 inch, alloy frame with stainless other parts.
Yes, I've been told I'm living in the past . . . .

The Delta Elite is a slam dunk.
I would say a 9mm lightweight Commander, but I'm building one, now.
I will also add the 1908 .380 hammerless - for that matter the gov't .380 would be nice, too. Mayvbe upsize them a little for the 9mm?
The New Frontier Single Action Army in .44 special, 5.5" barrel. I promise I will only shoot factory equivalent loads in it.:evil:

The once announced and never made Colt Python Stainless in .22.
While I have never seen one the 11th edition of modern guns and their values says that in 1981 they made pythons in both .22 lr and wmr
Atleast the python is back in production again.
opps, now I see that they probally were not made in stainless, sorry.

Good on you, Jim V! Commander in .38 Super (Using the correct terms, Commander = LW and Combat Commander = steel)
Q: What's that you're carrying, Johnny?
A: Same .45 Commander I usually pack.
Q: Steel or lightweight?
A: It's a Commander. REAL Commanders are lightweight.
Really, I've always resented the tag, "Combat Commander." Makes it sound as if the alloy framed Commanders produced during the twenty previous years were somehow not worthy!:mad:
Oh, well - - - I've trusted CLWs to bring me home at night since about 1967 or so.
Best,
Johnny
PS---While we're at it - - -Wish Colt would produce a Commander for ME: Stainless parts on a proper CLW frame, high fixed sights, arched MSH, standard spring-and-plug, and everything "melted."

Another vote here for the Colt .380 Government Pocketlite, the 7 + 1 model single action.
I might be tempted to the wheelgun side with a nice Python too.
The trick would be getting Colt to make anything for less than a house payment!

What do you consider a sane price?
Not $800+, I'll tell ya that!
A real 1911 shouldn't cost any more than a 1991, especially considering it has fewer parts. It's beyond my comprehension why Colt doesn't that realize we don't want Series 80's.

February 21, 2003, 12:49 PM
The three I would go with are:
The diamond back .38's in 2.5 and 4 inch versions.
