You got a great deal... prices, as well as popularity, on these guns have gone nowhere but up since I bought mine in 2008. I put those wood checkered aftermarket grip panels on to preserve the original black hard rubber ones that came with it that are in excellent shape.

You could almost say that you bought two magazines and got a free gun with them.

If you haven't yet looked at Colt Automatic Pistol and Revolver Information - 17 years of Service to Colt Firearms Collectors... do it, there is a wealth of information.
Thanks for the web site. As soon as I get it (NICS delays on two other pistols and Palmetto still hasn't shipped the Beretta) I'll post pics. I'm hoping in about 2 weeks. And your Colts look mint.
