Seems like a good time to show my new pistol. I saw this at a gun show back in Dec and decided on the spot it'd be a great 38th Birthday gift (to myself)....
COLT Gunsite Pistol.
Specs: COLT Series 70 base gun COLT National Match barrel/bushing Smith and Alexander beavertail Grider short trigger Wilson extended saftey McCormick hammer and sear (tuned 4lb trigger pull) Novak rear sight (plain) Heine Front sight (serrated) COLT Custom Shop relibility package (2) Wilson 47D 8rnd mags
I took it OTB right to the range and put 200rnds thru it without a problem... I mean litterally I stopped by the range on the way home from the gun show... I didn't even plan to buy anything that day let alone go to the range so I didn't have any ammo, hearing/eye pro...
Last weekend, I just hit 750rnds thru it - all without a failure.
It comes from COLT with some really thin profile grips that I don't care for, so I replaced them with the (shown) Herrets checkered Cocobolo grips which I use on all my carry Government Models.
Not sure if the dealer had it marked wrong or what... I paid $975.00 before tax and thats a heck of a bragin for a Custom Shop built COLT. Will
