I am heading over to a local dealers shop in the morning to pick out a New Colt Rail Gun! Problem is I am not sure which one to get!!! He has one in Stainless and a Two Tone....I am going to use it as a duty weapon and as a SRT weapon....I needed a rail so that I could mount my light for obvious reasons.....Anyone have any pictures, or experience with these??? Please advise before the morning!

Signed,

Excited in Illinois!!! aka Tom

I have one in stainless and I love it!





Just finished doing a trigger upgrade and adding a S&A magwell (don't have my camera right now though for update pics), off to the range on Sunday to play with it.

I got mine in SS also. One thing nice about the blasted lower's finish. If it gets a scratch or scuff, it's pretty easy/cheap to have it blasted again, so it looks like new. I bought mine for potential duty use also.

Narc45ACP I like your grip choice on yours. It looks really nice. I really need to replace the factory gpips on mine. I just don't like them.

But when I do, it will be this gun

Outstanding!

I'd love to have a Colt rail gun. Did Colt change the rollmarks this year or does it still say Colt Rail Gun on the other side of the slide?

Still says COLT RAIL GUN. I got mine last year so it has the 100 YEARS OF SERVICE mark also.

I love my rail gun and I set mine up with the same grips. I also added 10-8 rear sight with brass bead front and EGW thick flange bushing. The EGW bushing cut the groups in half.
