What a gorgeous combination! This makes me realize I'll never come close to having all the beautiful Colt 1911s I want, not to mention the fine leather gear.

For me, the vintage 1911s (commercial or military) create something of a time warp. All the old craftsmen who worked to build them are mostly gone now, but their level of skill and attention to detail lives on in the old pistols...so in a way, they are never forgotten.

Just curious...when you say "Lieutenant", do you mean as in the military or as in law enforcement?
