I'm not keen on front serrations either,but I'm even more fussy, I like the rear serrations to go straight up and down, not angled in line with the grip and I prefer arched mainspring housings, that package looks classic Colt. Did I mention that I like the big C word in the brand as well?
This is my current one and apart from the angle of the dangle on the rear serrations, it looks ok to me. Unfortunately, I was in attendance when my gun dealer mate (operates from home, sells to friends and members of the gun club, doesn't do much business, more convienence than anything else) picked it up as his new gun. He is a Colt and Sig fanatic. As he was picking it up, the dealer he bought it off told him about the new Sig that had just came out and more than anything else he lovesssssssssss the 357SIG. He immediately ordered one and then asked 'what am I going to do with this one?' I said, I'll take it, so he handed me the invoice and said you can have it for the invoice price. Gun, dies, 300PMC factory loads, 1000x new Winchester brass. I was so hot for it, I overlooked the serrations on this occasion.
This is what they are supposed to look like I reckon (oh! I forgot to mention, the Commander hammer is a must also!)
This one is gone, crushed by the Govt! Please excuse me for having a pic of a 1911 WHICH IS NOT IN CONDITION ONE!!!!
I don't know what I was thinking, it won't happen again!
I never noticed it before, but the old Commander in the pic seems to have a much more prominent mainspring housing.
