The Series 70 firing system preserves the classic Government Model lockwork without a firing-pin block, aligning this pistol with traditional 1911 operation. Colt's Government Model rollmarks and GI-style controls underscore its period-correct presentation.
Its 5-inch National Match barrel is carbon steel, paired with a blued carbon steel slide and frame. The slide has rear vertical cocking serrations, and the pistol uses a standard short guide rod with a recoil spring plug.
GI-style sights include a small serrated ramped front and a square-notch rear. Controls and appointments follow the classic pattern: a short, solid trigger; spur hammer; flat serrated mainspring housing; and double-diamond checkered hardwood grip panels.
Chambered in .45 ACP, the pistol is set up in a single-stack configuration with a 7+1 capacity. It is single-action, semi-automatic, and features both a manual thumb safety and a grip safety.
Manufactured in the USA and cataloged as Colt part number O1911C, this full-size 1911 sits squarely in the "Classic" line with a clean blued finish and the hallmark Government Model profile.
