Colt Combat Commander, 70 Series, Old-School Custom
Description: This is a 70 Series Combat Commander and it is a genuine "Old School" Custom. I purchased the gun as you see it in '89 or '90, validating the timeframe of the modifications. It has all of the custom touches desired on a combat pistol back in the 1970s. In those days, modifications like this pistol wears were performed by hand and/or on non-CNC machine tools. The period correct modifications include: Ported Slide Ramped and polished Barrel Guide Rod added Melted / Filed Smith and Wesson Sites Beaver Tail Checkered / Knurled Front Strap Checkered / Knurled Trigger Guard Checkered Backstrap / Mainspring Housing Custom Finish (NiTex??) Other internal mods? The serial number of the gun dates to 1974 and also indicates this gun was originally blued. Comes with original box and docs. The box isn't in great shape, but its the right one and not taped-up or repaired. I do not know who did the custom work on this gun. I've put a few boxes through this pistol decades ago and it shot flawlessly. Buyer to pay actual shipping not expected to exceed $65. All in all, this is a great example of a period correct custom. It is time for someone else to enjoy this one.
