Gun arrived Thursday, and I picked it up on Friday.
Very solid. I was not thrilled to find the ambi safety. My understanding was it went to a single sided safety for 2015, but there it is. I'll try it and see. (FFL dealer said Colt might be using all parts on hand)
And speaking of the ambi safety, one word comes to mind. Stiff. Most of last night was spent watching movies and operating the safety. And some fine filing.
Safety can now be engaged and disengaged with my 1 thumb.
Snick on-snick off.
Originally it was a project to apply or disengage the safety. An unsafe safety.
Grip screw bushings are regular size and staked in place. I changed the rosewood grips for ebony.
Novak dimension front sight dovetail. That one was a true surprise. I measured 3 times with 2 different calipers. I just didn't expect it on my gun, even though I had read Colt was going to a true Novak dovetail.
I'm sick as a dog right now. Don't dare leave my warm, comfy house but I NEED to shoot this gun.
