2019年5月24日 · Colt O1911C Classic: First Impressions. I just picked up my new O1911C Colt Government Model Classic today, and here I will share my initial impressions of it.

2019年8月26日 · Colt 1911 Classic - Stainless. FYI to anyone following development of these pistols -- the stainless version of the Classic is starting to become available. The two vendors I expected to have them first have each posted one on GB. Not digging that dark lettering on …

2008年11月7日 · Note the huge difference in the finish. While both are blued the dull finish of the 1911 Classic almost makes it look like a WW1-era Black Army M1911. Now a comparison of the finish and rollmarks between the 1911 Classic and a 1966-vintage Government Model: Note that they came very close to the original markings.
New to 1911s with Colt 1911 Classic - 1911Forum

The 1911 will grow on you, don't feel surprised if you soon want another one. Don't get rid of your first, second, or even your third. Save up, start a rat hole, but keep them all. The only thing they'll eat is ammo.
What fixed sights for a Classic Colt 1911? - 1911Forum
2008年5月24日 · 2042 posts · Joined 2002. #13 · May 25, 2008 (Edited) I had a Yost/Heirloom Retro rear sight installed to replace a dinged up stock Colt rear sight. I'm very pleased with the end result and these Retro sights provide a very clean sight picture. I think it maintains the look of a Classic 1911 sight, but is much more robust.
Colt Classic O1911C Laser Engraved vs Rollmarked
2006年6月15日 · That's the whole reason why Colt came out with the Classic, because people wanted those rollmarks but they didn't want to have to pay $1800 for them. Avoid the temptation to replace parts on your brand-new 1911 just to make it …
A Trip Through Colt's 1911s with Ken Hackathorn... - 1911Forum
2019年7月13日 · What Colt has done with the O1911 Classic is basically make a hybrid between the Series 70 repro and a Series 80 O1991. It lacks a firing pin safety and had the classic rollmarks, but the rest of the gun is more like a Series 80 O1991. A narrow barrel hood is completely unrelated to whether the ejection port is lowered or not.
Colt 1911 Classic now shipping - 1911Forum
2019年5月11日 · A couple of the auctions show top views and the hoods appear to be narrow. Probably not a big deal for most people, but I was hoping for a return to a pre-Series 70 classic in its entirety. Basically what it means is that once the Series 70 reproductions are gone Colt will no longer be putting GI-spec barrels in any of their 1911s.

I field stripped but the slide is devoid of any markings.
New Talo Colt USA Classic model - 1911Forum
2020年9月5日 · The closest TALO ever came to offering a 1911 I might have bought was the O1970MA, a hybrid between a Series 70 repro and a WW2 M1911A1. And the only reason why that one interested me was because a little parts-swapping and a refinish in brushed blue would've netted a close facsimile of a pre-war Colt M1911A1.
