The Colt Engraved Competition Handgun .45 ACP 8rd Magazine 5" Barrel Stainless Steel blends classic 1911 heritage with modern competition-focused upgrades. Its stainless steel Government Model frame is paired with a scroll-engraved slide, custom blue G10 grips, and a Series 70 firing system that delivers a clean, crisp trigger pull. A dual recoil spring system works with the National Match barrel to promote smooth cycling and consistent accuracy, while Novak adjustable fiber optic sights provide a bright, precise sight picture.
This model is tailored for shooters who want a refined 1911 for range work and competition, offering enhanced control from the upswept beavertail grip safety and undercut trigger guard. The .45 ACP chambering and 8-round magazine capacity make it a capable choice for training or recreational shooting where reliability and shootability matter. Thoughtful ergonomics, quality materials, and Colt’s long-standing reputation for craftsmanship come together in a handgun that feels at home on the firing line.
