About the Colt Series 70 Government Model: Produced from 1970 to 1983, the Series 70 represents one of Colt's most respected commercial 1911 production runs, featuring the distinctive collet-style "Accurizor" barrel bushing for improved accuracy over earlier Government Models. Chambered in the venerable .45 ACP, it remains one of the most sought-after generations of Colt's iconic 1911 platform among collectors and shooters alike, prized for its classic fit, finish, and history as a direct descendant of John Moses Browning's original design.

Photo Disclaimer
Photos are taken under intense, high-definition lighting to give buyers the clearest possible view of the firearm's true condition. This lighting can occasionally make minor blemishes — small scuffs, finish wear, or surface marks — appear more pronounced than they are in hand. Please call us with any questions about the condition or severity of a specific blemish before or purchasing — we're happy to give you a direct, honest assessment.
