Dear Colt,

Please consider using the classic vertical slide serrations, in particular the Combat Commanders 9mm and 45ACP.
The new style ones just don't look good to me :)

And also please make a classic government in 9mm blued and stainless too.
Thx!

Dear Colts,

Just found out you are making the 1911 9mm  Classic Governments in stainless with the
full vertical slide serrations.

THANK YOU !!!

Not sure if my message had anything to do with it, but just ordered one :)

Liberals are a curious mix of communism and fascism, they want to destroy you but want to use your own money to do it.

I'm getting down to the last box, the others have all been destroyed...

Of course.

Sign me up for an XM177E1 with Commando markings, full auto, and 10" barrel with functional suppressor.

I still want Colt to do a run of modern Z cote.  Same pattern as the old but with a 20” A4, bring back the 6720, and a railed 1911.

And here she is, and well done Colts, it's pretty nicely made. Slide doesn't rattle, edges not too sharp. Everything seems to click smoothly.
I'm sure a purist would find fault, but it seems as nice as my MKIV (IIRC) that I had back in the day. Added some grips from my 1983 GC NM.

MY only complaint is that, it would be nice if they added three dot sights or something to that effect to help those of us who are not as
sharp eyed as we were in the 80's. Will do a 'state trooper' trigger job and get some down range time soon.

Again, well done Colts ! This one's a keeper.Attached File
