What's Included
- Colt Model 1991A1 Commander Series 80 .45 ACP pistol
Built in 1990, this Commander-length Model 1991A1 represents an early production example with the Old Rollmark "COLT M1991A1" billboard on the left side of the slide and "COMMANDER MODEL" on the right. The barrel hood is marked "COLT 45 AUTO," clearly identifying the chambering and factory origin.
It is a 1911-platform, single-action only, short-recoil pistol with the Series 80 firing pin block. Controls follow a GI pattern magazine release and include a manual thumb safety and grip safety. A Commander-style rowel hammer completes the period-correct configuration.
The slide uses rear cocking serrations only (vertical) and carries fixed sights: a staked front blade and a low-profile fixed rear notch. The 4.25 inch barrel uses a standard bushing and recoil spring plug arrangement.
The steel frame wears checkered brown grip panels secured by two screws per side, without Colt medallions. Made in the United States and chambered in .45 ACP, this pistol presents a straightforward Commander package with factory markings that define the Model 1991A1 line of the era.
