COLT SERIES 70 GOVERNMENT 1911 CLASSIC .45 ACP

Description:
Guns Listing ID: 707577



Colt Government Model 1911 Classic chambered in .45 ACP and offered as a complete, exceptionally well-preserved package with its original Colt hard case, factory literature, one Colt OEM magazine and two additional Wilson Combat magazines. The O1911C represents the Government Model in its most recognizable form. Built around the classic full-size steel frame, 5-inch barrel and traditional single-action operating system, this pistol preserves the proportions, balance and unmistakable styling that have defined the Colt 1911 for generations.

Rather than adding rails, optics cuts or oversized tactical controls, Colt kept this model deliberately traditional. It features a Series 70-style firing system, fixed military-style sights, vertical rear slide serrations, a classic spur hammer, short solid trigger, left-side thumb safety and handsome double-diamond checkered wood grips. The slide carries the iconic Colt Government Model markings that distinguish a genuine Hartford-produced Colt from the many 1911-pattern pistols on today’s market.

The all-steel construction gives this pistol the substantial, balanced feel expected from a proper Government Model. Its full-length slide and 5-inch barrel provide an excellent sight radius, while the weight of the steel frame helps produce the controlled recoil impulse and natural return to target that continue to make the full-size .45 ACP 1911 such a satisfying pistol to shoot. This example is in excellent used condition and has clearly been carefully maintained. The blued finish remains deep and attractive, with only light cosmetic handling marks and faint surface scratches visible under close inspection. The frame, controls and grip panels remain exceptionally clean, the factory markings are sharp, and the visible internal components show no indication of abuse or excessive use.

The pistol is accompanied by its original Colt blue hard case and factory literature. One Colt OEM magazine and two additional Wilson Combat magazines are included, creating a complete and highly practical package for the range, collection or defensive use. This is not a modern reproduction from an unrelated manufacturer wearing traditional styling. It is a genuine Colt Government Model, built by the company whose name has been inseparable from the American 1911 for more than a century. For the buyer seeking authentic Colt manufacture, classic Series 70-style operation and timeless Government Model presentation, this O1911C offers an outstanding combination of heritage, craftsmanship and real-world shootability. All used firearms are sold as is, with no warranties, express or implied.
