I spotted a Colt in the display case today and it turned out to be an interesting gun (to me). I've put some money down on it so it doesn't walk off.
Colt "Night Officer's" Model - S/N 0N01xx - One of 300 created for Lew Horton by Colt in 1993. The gun consists of a matte black Commander frame onto which is mated a matte black Officer's Model upper (Slide & Barrel w/bushing), topped with night sights. Has a beavertail safety, extended thumb safety, Houge wraparound finger groove grips. Balances nicely in the hand. Gun appears to be "low mileage".
This is about as close as I've seen to a "Defender" model in blue, but with the traditional sized grip.
Can anyone tell me anything else about this gun? Shootability? Reliability? Ammo preferences?
Thanks,
