Bryant Ridge's Analysis:
The Colt Gold Cup is known as the world's finest semi-automatic shooting gun and is considered the gold standard for competitive firearms. It was first introduced in the late 1950s to provide competitive shooters with a gun that they could take directly from the dealer's showcase to the firing line. Colt Gold Cup pistols have been used in local club matches and the National Matches at Camp Perry. The Gold Cup National Match is the ultimate target 1911, and if you ever get the opportunity to shoot one, don't miss it. They are exceptional pistols for shooting.
The MKIV Series 80 Gold Cup National Match is a type of semi-automatic pistol that was produced between 1983 and 1996.
