It's basically a Royal Blue finished Combat Commander with a 3-hole trigger, 1991 model sights, special stocks, Gold Cup serrated front-strap and jeweled Hammer and Grip Safety. It's a stunning looking pistol and shoots like a dream. Unlike some of my other Colts, this Combat Commander is tight and rock solid. 400 were produced in 2008-2009. They do pop up for sale every now and then, but they don't last long and after handling and firing this puppy, I think I know why. 
Here's a few more pics of the Royal Combat Commander:

Not a good picture. But works for this purpose. My workhorse Colt Stainless Series 80 Government Model. More often than not, it serves as my primary home defense piece.

I guess we all should have bought one when we had the chance. |

My 1991A1 with 1-113th CAV commemorative engravings. Just ordered a different hammer, more comfortable mainspring housing, and colt rubber wraparound grips. Hopefully next up are some decent night sights. (Have to get the okay from the wife before I can get anything else  ).

If I could only have one pistol, this 'un would be it. Use Permatex Anti-Seize lubricant, the silver stuff that they make for brake caliper pins and threaded applications, on your frame and slide rails, and your Rail Gun will run like a cat with turpentine on its ass. That brake parts lube stays put, too, and will not evaporate or dry out. I apply it with a tiny artist's paintbrush, which picks up just enough to run all the way down the inside of the slide rails without making a big sloppy mess. I use it on all the bearing and cam surfaces on my guns, and it works like a champ. |
Don't bother me. I am hallucinating and talking to the Corn God.
