Default FS- Vintage Colt 1911 Custom*SPF* & Uberti 1885 Hi Wall .45-70

Selling to finance another gun purchase. "I'll take it" with a PM gets it. I accept USPS money orders and paypal (+3%). I will only ship to an FFL and your FFL must accept shipments from individuals. If you have any questions please ask, I'll do my best to answer them.


This is a Colt Series 70 Gov't Model made in 1975 and turned into a Hardball gun by Dick Crawford in 1976. It is tight and well built and very, very accurate, the quality of the work is excellent. It has a Colt National Match barrel and bushing, clean, crisp trigger, BoMar sights, hand stippled front strap (similar to Clark "tiger tooth" stippling), and meets .45cal Service Pistol competition criteria. It functions flawlessly using factory ball ammo. I installed a new Wolff 17lb recoil spring and have used it in one local IDPA match, I've put a total of about 150 rounds through it without any troubles. It is in very nice shape with just a few minor finish blemishes and some very small marks on the trigger from having a trigger shoe mounted on it at one time. I purchased this gun while looking for a Clark Hardball gun and have since found a Clark so this one is for sale. This is really nice old school custom 1911 that is suitable for competition, recreational target shooting, or self defense. It comes with one magazine. This is a lot of gun for the money.
*SPF*$850 shipped to your FFL.





This is a beautiful Uberti 1885 Hi Wall carbine in .45-70. It has a heavy 28" barrel, very nice wood, and incredible color case hardening on the receiver, lever, trigger, and hammer. The gun functions perfectly and is very accurate. I bought it several years ago and have fired 10 rounds through it for sighting and familiarity. I carried it deer hunting a few times last fall otherwise it has been in the safe. It is in 98+% condition with only a few almost invisible handling marks on the stock.
$650 shipped to your FFL.
