The Colt 1911 Potro De Plata (Colt of Silver) is a Rare Limited Exclusive, making it an exceptional addition to any collection or the perfect starting point for new collectors. The term "Potro De Plata" symbolically refers to a valuable young person or prodigy, and this blued Colt 1911 embodies that spirit with its intricate scroll engravings on the top and sides of the slide, reflecting classic craftsmanship. Sterling silver accents, including the Rampant Colt, Colt logo, and Colt Dome, add a sleek and striking contrast to the overall design. The white Kirinite grips, adorned with sterling silver Colt emblems, draw attention and complete the rifle’s elegant monochromatic look. Combining proper form with timeless functionality, the Potro De Plata is a work of art that is as priceless as a silver colt. With only 500 units made, each Davidson's Colt 1911 Potro De Plata features a special serial number beginning with "PDO," marking its exclusivity.
