I bought a Colt conversion unit in about 1979 and the only difference I can see is the front sight on yours differs from mine. The sight on mine was a partridge sight like those used on a series 70 Colt Gold Cup National match. Unfortunately I had to sell my conversion unit and dedicated frame. My unit was very reliable and accurate.

My unit was very reliable and accurate. Good catch on the front sight as mine's been altered. I wanted to replicate the exact front sight I was using on my Series 70 at te time so the two sight pictures were the same so I swapped the partridge sight for a ramped, which ruined it as a 100% collector. But back in the eighties I was using it as a serious practice gun for IPSC and quick draw and had no intention of selling it. Still don't. |
