Description:
WTS  Colt Factory Gold Cup Midrange, in .38spl 1963

$2500

This is a scare, factory Colt 1911, in .38 spl, “Mid-Range.”  Colt only made a few of these and they were intended for those shooters who didn’t want to shoot the S&W Model 52.  I believe it was “legal,” at that time, for International Center-fire, although I don’t know if it still is.

The Colt serial number puts this pistol as manufactured in 1963.  It doesn’t appear to be modified although I believe that the full length Bo-Mar rib and sights were put on later. 

I took a lot of pictures and made sure that they clearly told everything about the pistol that I could think of.  If I missed something let me know.


The pistol looks beautiful.  I'd say that it’s a least 90% blue.  The only blue wear is on the back-strap and grip-safety.  There’s a bit of wear on the front-strap too.  (Where you’d most expect it.)

When I acquired it, it came with 3 magazines, two of which are factory Colts.  The 3rd is aftermarket but it WORKS.).

The pistol is in an after-market, Midway USA,  canvas case of no consequence which I’ll include.
