Bryant Ridge's Analysis:
The 2025 Colt Government Competition Series 70 in .38 Super is a modern performance-focused interpretation of Colt’s classic full-size Government Model, purpose-built for shooters who value speed, accuracy, and the refined shooting characteristics of this legendary high-velocity cartridge. Manufactured by Colt, this Competition Series pistol retains the traditional Series 70 firing system, deliberately omitting a firing-pin safety to preserve the clean, consistent trigger pull that competitive shooters and purists strongly prefer. Chambered in .38 Super, the pistol benefits from the cartridge’s flat trajectory, reduced recoil compared to .45 ACP, and excellent feeding reliability in the 1911 platform, making it especially popular for competition, range work, and precision shooting. The 5-inch National Match barrel is fitted to enhance mechanical accuracy, while the full-steel Government-length slide provides forward weight that helps soften recoil and allows for faster, flatter follow-up shots. Visually and functionally, the pistol is set apart by its competition-ready features, including an adjustable rear sight paired with a high-visibility front sight, an upswept beavertail grip safety, an undercut trigger guard, and extended controls that promote confident handling under rapid fire. Checkered or textured grips offer a secure hold, complementing the slim ergonomics for which the 1911 is renowned. Finished in Colt’s modern competition styling—often available in stainless or refined blued configurations—the 2025 Government Competition Series 70 in .38 Super successfully blends classic Colt heritage with contemporary performance upgrades, standing as a fast-shooting, accurate, and highly desirable example of the 1911 platform adapted for modern competitive demands.
