...as said...$800 is a bargain if in decent condition.

As to magazines...they can be problamatic,even ones from the factory.

The supplier to Colt is/was Metalform. A friend bought a gun and then 4 spare magazines from Brownells...and none of them would function. My parents live ten minutes from Metalform (before they moved) and I took the magazines there personally and explained the exact malfunctions each did. They took the mags and the next trip down I got the mags back and I swear they were worse than before. Contacted Brownells and told them the whole story and they sent a return ticket...

I ended up buying the gun from my friend and over a period of time amassed 2 or three more magazines that run with zero issues. Wonderful gun and would not hesitate buying the one you have found for $800...
