*SOLD* Colt Royal National Match .45 ACP *140 of 250 TALO DISTRIBUTOR EXCLUSIVE*

Bryant Ridge's Analysis:

The Colt 1911 has been a cornerstone of U.S. military service, seeing action in two World Wars and numerous other conflicts, and it remains in use by some units today. Additionally, it has earned widespread popularity among law enforcement, competitors, and recreational shooters. While the design has evolved with updates like a firing-pin block safety, higher-profile sights, and more ergonomic grips, the core design and exceptional trigger have endured for over a century. This particular model is a limited edition produced by Colt exclusively for Talo Distributors, with only 250 units made. It features a royal blue polished slide, fancy walnut grips, a retro roll-marked slide, a flat mainspring housing, and front strap serrations. The pistol is offered in its original box with factory paperwork. Whether you're seeking a new 1911 or a unique addition to a Colt collection, this limited edition makes an excellent choice.
