to buy a series 70 Colt ?

[jerry]

Yeah!
Colt Dosen't make 'em any more to the best of my knowledge. I'd trash the series 80 in 1/2 of a heartbeat for a good series 70.

Only way I might not is if I carried it CCW or duty. Then I'd just have both.

Colt’s Series 70 pistol features the Series 70 firing system making it a faithful reproduction and throwback to Colt Government Models manufactured during the 1970’s. It is a rugged and dependable Colt that features high maintainability and sustains repeatable accuracy. :target: http://www.colt.com/CMCI/Series70.asp

I thought mabe the custom shop, but didn't want to stick my neck out too far. They are wishy washy in the custom shop.

Are you talking even trade, a little cash w/ it? If so, you'd be a fool not to.

actually a friend is interested in my Combat Commander :target:

[jerry]

Is that the one that shoots 9" high or low?

i have heard the firing pin saftey is easy to remove, improving trigger pull. i don't know because my trigger finger can't tell the difference. besides i no longer trade, or sell, guns, just buy

I'm not removing any safety parts...besides I want the full size 1911A1 :right:

No doubt about it full size series 70's rock.

Now get out there and do it.

No, my 1991A1 (series 80 pistol) has never failed me. And I did indeed remove the firing pin doodad - it just slips out. Can't really tell if it helped (trigger has always been nice) but it sure hasn't hurt. With all the other safeties, the thing ain't needed.

[jerry]
