While the Gold Cup is pleasing to the eye it was quite rare to see one on the firing line at regional or Camp Perry Nationals.If you did spot one it was in the hands of a new shooter.

Competitive 2700 shooters used government model Colt 1911 pistols that were accurized by a top gunsmith that specialized in doing it.My 2 pre 1970 government model 1911 Colts were done by Al Dinan.
