Bryant Ridge's Analysis:
The Colt MKIV/Series 70 Gold Cup National Match with large roll markings is a distinguished variant of Colt’s premier target-grade 1911 pistol, celebrated for its precision, craftsmanship, and historical significance in competitive shooting. Introduced in the 1970s, the Series 70 Gold Cup National Match was designed specifically for bullseye and target shooters, incorporating key performance upgrades over standard Government Models. The large roll markings—bold, deeply stamped legends on the slide—are a defining characteristic of early production examples and are highly prized by collectors for their aesthetic prominence and historical authenticity. These markings not only add to the visual appeal but also serve as a hallmark of Colt's craftsmanship during this golden era of 1911 production.
 
Functionally, the Series 70 Gold Cup National Match features a wide, adjustable target trigger, an Elliason rear sight, and a National Match barrel—elements that collectively enhance its accuracy and control. The pistol also includes a flat mainspring housing, lowered ejection port, and match-grade components fitted to tight tolerances for enhanced performance. The “Series 70” designation refers to the lack of a firing pin safety system found in later Series 80 models, which many purists prefer for its cleaner trigger pull. Chambered in .45 ACP, the Gold Cup National Match was long considered the benchmark for out-of-the-box target pistols, often used by competitive shooters at the highest levels. Today, the large roll mark models are particularly sought after by collectors and enthusiasts for their combination of shootability, aesthetics, and historical relevance.
