Late to the party. Here's a couple.
-Colt fixed sight .38 Super Match. Serial# dates to 1937, but gun was shipped in 1940 to England for the war effort.
-Clark Custom 61-S .38 Special built on a Colt .38 Special Kit pistol and a Colt Series 70 GM built into a Long Heavy Slide .45
-Colt National Match .38 Special Mid Range.
-S&W PC 1911. This is currently my favorite shooter and a Colt Gold Cup Trophy.

A couple more.....
-A 1964 vintage Colt GM with a early postwar .22 Conversion Unit upper. Many thanks to member 4barrel for allowing me to purchase an absolutely mint period correct magazine for this Conversion Unit. Many thanks again Gary, couldn't be happier!!
-Colt Series 70 .45ACP that has been customized with a Wichita sight and a wonderful trigger job by RK Customs.

I've got several 1911's but my favorite of all is the first gun I ever purchased - a Colt Series 70.

I have posted it elsewhere on the forums but it definitely needs to go here as well.

Post range day clean. I think they look cute together. My almost 45 yr old .45 and honey's almost 4 month old .22. And yes, she enjoys shooting the .45, doesn't everyone?

Here's my ECO .45 acp. Superior quality, fit and finish. Perfect for CCW.

TeamPB, is your Colt hard chromed or nickel? Love the finish!

 

[TeamPB]

It is nickel plated and it has a blued brother who escaped from Chicagoland about 20 years ago. I will try to post a shot of both soon. The nickel has worn very well over many rounds.

Colt 1911 with SW sights

Hello, I didn't see any colt 1911's with smith and Wesson revolver sights! The left is a combat commander nickel, the right a 70 series govt model that's hard chromed. Work done by Bob Cogan @ APW.

I like this thread and if one is good two are better.

And a great S&W .45

 

[arjay]

Got some great grips from a forum member this week and put them on my Springfield GI.
The previous owner did all sorts of accurizing work to it.
It's a sleeper.

Here are a few of mine.

 

[gman51]

This Kimber is now my only 1911. From first time seeing and holding it I have just so liked it. Fits my hand like it was special ordered for me.

 

[FFJAB]

Just 2 of the handfull I have.
The last serial number 1911 shipped 1912, and the most recent. A 1911 I built with the assistance of Bob Marvel.

I know. I know. I know what you are going to say. However this pistol was already armaloyed when I got it. I bought it from the daughter of a deceased police officer who was liquidating her father's guns. I don't know if the barrel is original, but I don't care. It shoots like a house afire. Even with the original tiny sights. I put new springs in it and a new set of Narvadex (sp?) grips and I carried it on duty for the last four years before I retired. I often carry it as a CCW or sometimes as an open carry. People still come up to me and ask me if I know if the hammer is cocked. I just say "Yep. Just as GOD and John Moses Browning intended."
