Colt Mfg 1911 Competition 70 Series, 45 ACP, 5" Barrel, 1-8rd Magazine, G10 Grip, Pistol

Built for the modern marksman but steeped in tradition, the Colt 1911 Competition Series 70 in .45 ACP channels over a century of heritage into a race-ready pistol. From its National Match barrel to its sleek blue finish and upgraded G10 grips, this 70 Series 1911 is a refined fighting pistol built to dominate the range. Colt’s Competition 70 Series 1911 retains the original Series 70 action—clean, crisp, and unencumbered by firing pin blocks—resulting in a smooth and predictable trigger break prized by serious shooters. It comes equipped with a dual recoil spring system for improved cycling and recoil management. Paired with an adjustable Novak rear sight and fiber optic front, this model delivers precise control shot after shot. The aggressive checkering and scalloped G10 grips provide solid traction without sacrificing comfort—an ideal configuration for competitive or defensive use.
