Re: New Colt Rail Gun!

i know they're useful but don't know if i'll ever get used to the looks of a rail on a 1911...
 
Re: New Colt Rail Gun!

I'll never get used to the looks of rails on handguns but they are sure usefull.
congrats on a nice piece and cocked unlocked pic.
 
Re: New Colt Rail Gun!

Nice, what did it set you back. I have been toying with the idea of picking up another Colt. I miss my 1991A1...
 
Re: New Colt Rail Gun!

About $1100 shipped off gunbroker. Thats the only place I could find one of these. I figured I better pick one up before colt starts making the m45s for the marines and puts these on hold for the rest of the world.
 
Re: New Colt Rail Gun!

Have the prices of these gone up ever since the MEUSOC contract?
 
Re: New Colt Rail Gun!

I paid $1050 for the pistol and 50 for shipping across the country. So the pistol was $25 under MSRP for the bitone.

From what I can see they’ve gone up around $100 in the past year.

So, they've gone up a bit but not drastically. It'd definitely harder to find a new one these days which has affected the price.
 
Re: New Colt Rail Gun!

I'm so glad they made the trigger black! I always hated makers that "tactical" the pistol out in black and leave trigger aluminum/silver!

Nice pistol, I'm sure you'll enjoy it very much!! I'm a huge fan of two-tone pistols!!

Re: New Colt Rail Gun!

Thanks guys! I shot it today! Shoots as a Colt should I suppose this being my first Colt.
 
Re: New Colt Rail Gun!

Nice looking gun. I've been thinking of getting a 1911 with a rail to have a flashlight on my home defense gun. My Kimber doesn't have one.
 
Re: New Colt Rail Gun!

very nice, i was looking at these, but out of my league at this point. not sure how i feel about the rail, but man that is sweet pistol that's for sure
 
Re: New Colt Rail Gun!

These are freaken Awesome! Can't wait to see more of the M.45s Soon!!! Nice piece!
 
Re: New Colt Rail Gun!

After owning a Springfield TRP 3/4 rail, I dont think I could ever go back to a non-railed 1911..

Good score on that CRG!!!

Re: New Colt Rail Gun!

Very nice gun the thing i did to mine was put an ed brown thumb safety on it the colt safety is thick and dug into my thunb the ed brown is shaved down lower in the rear of the safety and it feels like a new gun.
