Bryant Ridge's Analysis:
The Colt Government Series 70 in .38 Super is a modern iteration of a classic American sidearm, blending heritage styling with refined craftsmanship and a high-performance chambering. This 2025-manufactured example is built on the legendary 1911 platform and features Colt’s Series 70 firing system, known for its clean trigger pull and lack of a firing pin safety, making it especially popular with traditionalists and competitive shooters. Chambered in .38 Super—a cartridge favored for its flat trajectory, controllability, and penetration—the pistol offers a balance between power and shootability, especially in the context of competition or self-defense. Its 5-inch National Match barrel enhances accuracy, delivering match-grade performance in a factory configuration.

Visually, the pistol is nothing short of striking. The bright polished stainless finish provides a mirror-like appearance and exceptional corrosion resistance. Complementing this finish are dramatic black pearlite grips adorned with a printed Aztec pattern and inlaid gold Rampant Colt medallions, giving the pistol a uniquely bold and elegant aesthetic. Fixed front and rear sights offer a clean sight picture, in keeping with the gun’s sleek profile. Combining performance, artistry, and a nod to both cultural design and historical lineage, this Colt Government Series 70 .38 Super is a standout choice for shooters and collectors who appreciate function wrapped in refined presentation.
