Bryant Ridge's Analysis:
Introduced in 1986 as an evolution of the Colt Government Model .380, the Colt Mustang revolutionized the personal protection marketplace as one of the smallest single-action 1911-style subcompact pistols ever manufactured. To inaugurate the rollout of this legendary concealed-carry platform, Colt produced a limited inaugural run designated the "Mustang First Edition" (Model 06390RM). Featuring a dedicated "MU" serial prefix ("MU0301"), these initial production models were finished with a deep polished Royal Blue slide over an anodized aluminum frame and fitted with smooth walnut grips housing gold Colt Rampant Horse medallions. Operating on a locked-breech single-action mechanism, the Mustang offers standard 1911 ergonomics in an ultra-compact, pocketable package. Complete with its original factory maroon Colt box with serial-matching end label, manual, NRA literature, warranty card, and companion paperwork, low-serial First Edition Mustangs represent top-tier investment-grade Colt collectibles.
This magnificent, highly complete collector pistol, serial number MU0301, is an authentic Colt Mustang First Edition manufactured in Hartford, Connecticut, in 1986. Chambered in .380 ACP, this pistol features a 2.75-inch barrel, polished Royal Blue finish, gold medallion smooth walnut grips, single-action operation, and its original factory box with matching serial label. Preserved in pristine, near-mint/unfired condition throughout with 100% radiant blue finish coverage, pristine wood grain, rock-solid slide lockup, crisp single-action trigger break, and a mirror-bright bore with sharp rifling. Offering low "MU" serial number lineage (#MU0301) and complete factory paperwork, this Colt Mustang First Edition represents a premier investment-grade handgun.
