While I've had a few 1911 styled semis, and I've had a few colt revolvers; this is my first Colt 1911. Picked this up at a local gun show yesterday. I traded a couple refinished Police Positive Specials and a worn Trooper MKIII for it. Considering the little total $ I had in the three revolvers, I think I came out quite well.
This GC is from the very end of the 70 series it looks like: '82-'83. From my estimate, it's about 98% plus condition. The owner (an older guy that's been a Colt collector a long time) never fired it and doesn't think the original owner did much if any either. He thinks he has the box somewhere at home, but no promises. It would certainly be cool if he can find it. Did I do ok?
