Description:
The Colt Custom shop has reintroduced the classic Colt Series 70 in a traditional blue steel variant. The pistols in the photos are stock specimens from our store , but the ones we have for sale are unfired and unopened in their blue Colt Custom Shop boxes. We did not get these through normal channels; we had to pay premium prices for them. The forte of the Series 70, of course, is the lack of a firing pin block or firing pin safety, and the crisp single action trigger pull that only comes without the trigger having to depress a plunger. Factory specs are as follows. The pistol is the classic 5 inch barrel all-steel Colt Series 70 Government, catalog #O1970A1CS .45 ACP. It's entirely blue steel, 8 ½ inches overall length, classic spur hammer, aluminum combat trigger, flat black combat sights, with classic Double Diamond Rosewood Colt grips. Both grip safety and thumb safety are standard configuration. Serrated trigger is standard, and it has two 7 + 1 capacity magazines. Finish, as the photos show, is matte blue vertical surfaces and classic Colt bright blue side features. As if the gun is not essay enough by itself, a word about the competition to single actions autos. Our photographer has carried and fired one of these for the past 50 years, and he says your Glock will go off before his cocked-and-locked Colt will every time. He subscribes to the opinion of the late, great Jeff Cooper, who says a Double Action Auto is a solution to a problem that does not exist. In a market awash with plastic, here is the original real thing, all 36 oz. of it. Own this original classic, still the definitive combat handgun for only $ 919.95

Don't let your buddies use your account. Registered user must be the buyer, with his or her own money. Buying firearms and related items for other people can result in felony charges. Don't try, either, to circumvent any law; for example, a California civilian may not buy a high capacity magazine and have it shipped to his brother-in-law in Nevada. That is a felony.
GA Pay buyers are NOT charged until we confirm we have the item and are ready to ship it. The same thing is true for phone-in, fax-in, and mail-in payments. In this respect, and in several others, Guns America outshines all its competitors. This is the best firearms website there is, hands down.
