Bryant Ridge's Analysis:
The Series '70 pistols have become the preferred choice for dedicated .45 enthusiasts, and this model marks the return of the classic lightweight Commander, designed without any unnecessary frills. It features the original, smaller controls, including thumb safety, slide lock, and magazine catch, all of which are more than adequate for defensive shooters. Catering to the preferences of many .45 enthusiasts, this model includes a long trigger and a flat mainspring housing. The grip safety is enlarged to offer better protection for the web of the shooter's hand, while the Colt-produced beavertail safety adds extra comfort. Additionally, the pistol is equipped with a platinum-standard Novak sight system, featuring an advanced LoMount design with an extra-wide .170" rear notch and a ramp front with a gold bead, making it ideal for low-light shooting conditions.

Renowned firearms expert Wiley Clapp contributed to the design of the Tactical Oval grip, which improves control through two simple wooden panels and a Roper-inspired checkering pattern. This pattern enhances the shooter's ability to aim and grip the pistol securely. The frontstrap is precisely checkered by famous metalsmith Pete Single in his 25 LPI pattern, a feature never before offered on an affordable pistol. With a lightweight alloy receiver for ease of carry, a Series '70-style action without a firing pin safety, and a National Match-grade barrel, this pistol stands out in performance. It is highly valued by serious shooters and comes with a special serial number range, making it a unique and high-quality firearm.
