Description:
Colt Series 80 MK IV Gold Cup .45 1911 Used
The Colt Series 80 MK IV Gold Cup National Match is an iconic .45 ACP semi-automatic pistol renowned for its precision engineering and historical significance in American firearms manufacturing. Introduced as part of Colt’s long-running Gold Cup series, this model was specifically designed for competitive bullseye shooting, with production spanning from the early 1980s to the mid-1990s 7. As a Government-sized 1911 platform, it features a 5-inch match-grade barrel, adjustable target sights, and a finely tuned single-action trigger system, making it a favorite among serious marksmen. A defining feature of the Series 80 variant is the incorporation of a passive firing pin safety mechanism, which enhanced the pistol’s safety profile without detracting from the crisp, consistent trigger pull expected in a competition firearm 4. The Gold Cup National Match was manufactured with tighter tolerances than standard 1911s, contributing to its superior accuracy and reliability under competitive conditions. Typically finished in blued steel with checkered walnut grips, it exemplifies classic 1911 craftsmanship and remains highly collectible today |2/2|.
