Bryant Ridge's Analysis:
When someone mentions the 1911 pistol, one's mind instantly jumps to Colt. The 1911 Classic is a tribute to the highly respected Commercial Government Model pistols of the past. This firearm features the Series 70 firing system and roll marks, a national match barrel, staked-on front sights, and a spurred hammer. It is chambered in .38 Super and comes in a blued finish. The 1911 Classic is a simple and pure 1911 model designed to be personalized by the user.
