Bryant Ridge's Analysis:
In 1983, Colt introduced the Colt Mark IV/ Series 80 Government Model -.380 Auto. This pocket pistol was similar in appearance, but not design, to the Colt M1911. The Government Model .380's obvious aesthetic difference being that it is scaled down to roughly 78 percent to that of a full-sized M1911 Government Model. From the factory the .380 Government Model came with a capacity of 7+1. In 1986, Colt introduced a simplified version of their .380 with a shortened barrel, slide, and gripframe, holding two fewer rounds and sold it as the Mustang. In 1987, the Pocket Light version was introduced boosting the popularity because of the reduced weight of the weapon.
This is one of 1000 guns produced by the Colt to commemorate the manufacture of the Government Model 380 in stainless steel in 1989.
