colt 1911 anniversary model
well i ordered one of the colt 100 yr annv. model 1911 well i got it 2 days.My wholesaler said it was the first one and only one they got so far.looks great with a lower ser # of 018x.Here are couple pics i took to show it to you guys.

the bad news is i live in ny and colt didn't supply a casing for the pistol so i have to bring it to the cobis center to have them fire a round so they get their case

Nice looking pistol.



If ignorance is bliss; there are some blissful sonofaguns around here. We know who you are, so no reason to point yourselves out.

wasn't planning on shooting it but since ny has to shoot it for their waste of time cobis program.I might as well shoot a mag

Beautiful! If they're doing as good a job on these as they are the newer SAA's it should be a fine pistol.

Is it just me or does anyone else just love a plain Ol' 1911. No chain-link stippling, whiz-bang ultra night vision sights, mega-huge mag well, super glass cutter laser. Just a nice 1911. I love it!!! I'm not calling it plain just simply beautiful.

K20350,

the Tao says perfection is not achieved when nothing more can be added; but when nothing more can be subtracted. A standard 1911 is the essence of that when "tuned" to feed hardball properly.

Absolutely! My favorite 1911 variants are the mil-spec ones. I even like them better Parkerized rather than blued.
