Speaking of .38-caliber competition pistols, Gil, in association with Jim Clark Sr., strongly promoted the use of 1911 semi-automatic pistols chambered in .38 Special and set up to shoot wadcutter bullets for the Centerfire category of NRA Bullseye matches. Together, they used special ".38 Kit" slide-and-barrel units that were made by Colt to build and market custom pistols. In addition, according to Blue Book of Gun Values, Colt built about 400 of these .38 Special Kit guns between 1964 and 1970; this model is sometimes referred to as the "Gil Hebard Model.
