Happiness is mounting 5,000+ year old Alaskan woolly mammoth ivory stocks on my 1981 factory nickel Series 70.

The Colt site says the serial number doesn't work but it worked a year ago. I was with him when he purchased her NIB but he chucked the box probably after he purchased her. |

It was also made in 1981 and is nickel finished. It's the most reliable 1911 I've ever had. It'll eat anything, JHP's, wad cutters. I can even fill the magazine with empty cases and it will eat that, too. But I think it's kind of ugly. Oh, and was also my dad's gun.  |

How well do they stand up during actual shooting?
Manufacturers, that I've seen don't recommend carry or use. |
