Description:
The Colt New Agent is a short, light .45 ACP semi-automatic intended for concealed carry and police backup roles. It is short in the sense that the upper uses a barrel only 3" in length, and it is light because the abbreviated receiver is aluminum alloy. This pistol weighs only 24½ ozs., unloaded. In the handling sense, the New Agent is pure M1911, complete with single-action trigger and a short single-column magazine of seven rounds. As much as the gun possesses traditional features and contours, it does have a couple of new features in cosmetics and sights. The New Agent is relatively small, measuring 4¾" by 6¾" by 13 ⁄16" (height, length, thickness), with that thickness figure measured across the grip panels. Contrasted with a typical M1911A1 pistol, the New Agent is more than 2" shorter in length, about 3/4" shorter in height and just about a pound lighter. It is a typical recoil operated pistol of the basic John Browning design. For self-defense, it would presumably be carried cocked-and-locked (hammer back, safety on and a round in the chamber). The trigger is of the long style, which is the preference of the majority of handgunners. A short, vertically grooved mainspring housing can be found just below an abbreviated grip safety. The tang of the grip safety has a pronounced concave curve to its top surface, designed to clear the rounded spur of the pistol’s hammer. The hardwood stocks have been slimmed down and are checkered in a bordered double diamond pattern. The thumb safety is of the original M1911 style, complete with the trim paddle. Vertical serrations on the frontstrap and a nicely executed relief groove for the middle finger, located at the junction of the trigger guard and the butt, enhance shootability. The New Agent slide is basically the same as the Defender. It differs in the cosmetic treatment of the slide flats at the front. The New Agent slide has an angled step that slims the front end. The angle matches that of the cocking serrations at the rear of the slide. Inside, you will find a bull barrel with no barrel bushing. Two nested recoil springs are wrapped around a telescoping full-length recoil spring guide. Colt has used the same system on the Defender and the Officer’s ACP pistols. The New Agent has no sights in the conventional sense of rear notch and front post. Instead, a narrow full-length groove has been milled into the top of the slide. This "100 YEARS OF SERVICE" stamped Colt New Agent has been shot, but very little from its appearance, which is excellent. Comes with its original numbered to the gun box, (2) 7-round magazines, and instructions manual. PRICE: $895 We are Antique & Modern Firearms in Lexington, KY, dealer of fine firearms since 1974.
