Hi Guys,

Here in Australia it is very hard to find a M1917 Smith but a dealer here has a few Colts. I have read just about all the threads on the 1917 that I can find here & from looking at the pictures that you have posted it appears that a lot of you good people also have the Colt M1917 with your S&W's

here's the question for you, Do I buy one of the colts or
keep looking for a Smith I have a few Smiths in the safe that regularly get shot but no Colts & I don't know anything about the Colt M1917

Need some advice Guys. What are the Colts like ? Is there anything I should be looking for with the Colts ? I want it as a shooter.

Thanks again & I know this is a S&W site but as I said earlier it looks like a lot of you have the colts too. This is to be my retirement present after being medically retired after 20 years of Policing & I want a good shooter

Take care & thanks for your help.
