New Colt 1911

[Gixerman1000]

I usually never sell or trade anything but I had this Colt 1991A1 that was still a good shooter but really needed some work done for me to be happy with it, well rather than spend a bunch of money on it I decided to sell it and spend the money it would have taken to refurbish to buy a new one already the way I wanted.

And the new Colt 1991A1


I’m much happier.

Congratulations! You probably noticed already that the new one is built quite a bit better too.

Whats the frame on the old Colt? The slide's finish is all worn while the frame looks to be in great condition finish wise.

I have both ORM1991 and NRM and both have been excellent. You will enjoy the NRM's are really nice handguns.....

Without going too in depth as to the stupidity of my younger years, let’s just say this was my first 1911 and at the time I was going through my do it my self gunsmith phase.

The slide had real bad holster wear on it's parkerized finish so I polished the flats and tried to blue it my self, it didn't turn out to well.

I’m now a strong supporter of back ground checks and a minim age restrictions for dremel tools and bluing kits.
