nice pistol. I am likely to buy at least a couple of new Colts this year smile Also thinking of having the Colt Custom shop work over a couple I already have.

Very nice. I guess you didn't want to shoot it.

Nice, tbear. Looking at mine this am (01911 carbonia blue) wrestling with the same issue: shoot, or keep.... Of course should just lube it up and shoot it and enjoy it. Just that nagging thought of, these are the closest to a "new" original 1911 as exists, which feels kinda strange to break-in. Ah hell, it's a reproduction, gonna shoot it. Hope you enjoy yours, too.
