- I’m pleased with the quality and function of this new Colt. In my opinion, some of their products in the 1911 world have left a few things to be desired in more recent years. Maybe I just had some bad luck. But this more than makes up for it. Beautiful bluing, flawless function and a classic representation of what the Colt 1911 is all about. I give this pistol a big “thumbs up”!
Here is a very good web resource that talks about the differences between a series 70 1911 and a series 80:

This is the ONLY thing that has the GOVERNMENT attached to it that I Absolutely LOVE!
PERFECT COMMENT
Government cheese
So you don’t love cops?
@@JBullock54 I fuckin hate cops
@@JBullock54who does
As old as the design is it is still a beautiful weapon.
The fact that the 1911 is still popular 100+ years after it was introduced proves it has stood the test of time very well.
I’ve owned this pistol for a year now and it is one of my prized possessions
Me too
I grew up carrying a classic 1911 and still love them. For me, they look right, feel right and ARE what a handgun should be.
Good looking handgun
@1notgilty I'm 100% with you on that!
They are just beautiful!
I just love a classic 1911. Best pistol ever made. Tried and true.
And the CZ 75 B
Browning 9mm P-35
800 bucks for a functional classic colt that you can pass on to your children is a very great deal.
My thoughts exactly. All you need is a damn good set of modern sights, and its one of the best pistols you can ever buy
@Jake Stockton Uh how about any currently available modern pistol?
I just bought one of these yesterday. I love basic 1911 pistols and I’ve always wanted a real colt. Great gun
How much did it cost?
1911 videos make the world a better place!
Nothing like a plain no frills Colt 1911. Everything you need. Nothing you don't need.
Do you know what the "C" means on a clip? I've seen the letter M as well and don't know what they mean.
John Schneider that hammer bite though
Tony Westbrook
Magazine makers
M=Metalform
C=Checkmate
O=Okay Industries
G=General Shaver
Really? You actually NEED a grip safety?????
mothman1967 no don’t NEED it. But it’s part of the design, and I’ve never really noticed it on 7 or 8 1911s I’ve owned
Bought mine in 2019. Blue 5” govt model. Great gun
I too am a basic G.I. traditionalist. No bells and whistles here.
Jim C just a fine pistol that goes ‘bang’ / and very accurate
@@drdrake63 same I got a kimber 1911 I got the basic model and it looks like the gi model very basic 45 acp can’t go wrong with that.
The classic 1911 and the Browning hi power are the best looking pistol of all time.
Colt 1911 just feels so right in the hand.
My dream hand gun pistol. 1911 colt government model. Classic original.
Got one awhile ago been shootin the poop outta it got some 1911s including the one i saved my life with in Vietnam this colt is my fave. (Modern machine work) it shoot everything i stuff in it very good. If ya love 1911s (i do) gotta have one colt at least.
My first hand gun i got back in 1977 a new Colt Model 70 Government 45.ACP i love it, now i shoot the new Colt Government Rail gun 45.ACP and i love this one to , i have live & carry it in three state Texas & Arizona & Michigan .
Awesome video. Thank you for posting this. I knew I wanted a Colt for my first 1911 and like you, I wanted a standard “no frills” model. I placed an order for one several weeks ago through my local dealer and I just got the call that it will be ready for pickup tomorrow afternoon!
An absolute beauty. I have a Wilson combat, but there is Nothing like a Basic series 70 Colt 1911. Good luck with it sir.
i have a nice one(Colt) made when WW! ended-NOV.1918.. It was put into storage and issued in WW2 to my friend who was a captain and saw pacific theatre battles. Later when he was in the VA hospital ,He offered it to me for a very fair price, shortly before he passed away.
I'll give you a hundred bucks for it... - just kidding...! :-)
A man cannot own enough 1911's!
Der Inbegriff der Automatic Pistole, und von einer unübertroffenen Schönheit die in über 100 Jahren von niemand je ereicht wird! ❤ herzlichen Dank für dieses Video, Grüße aus Deutschland.
I bought one today. I’m extremely impressed. I was a little leery about Colts QC these days but I can’t find anything amiss from the factory. I bought a steel mainspring housing and I’m good. Thanks.
Why do folks say the series 70 is the best Colt 1911 45 ACP ever made ? Must be a reason they're saying that.
Those complaining about QC issues with Colt 1911s doesn't own one.
Their dads told them that "poor QC" myth around the campfire, and it gets passed on.
The MK IV Series 70 Colt was the most accurate .45 acp
made. Even friends who said the .45acp was very inaccurate shot mine and couldn't believe it.
Those that say they aren't accurate have never owned nor shot one.
Yup. It's a looker. Best description yet.
I have a series 70 made in 1975 I bought it while I was in the Army in 1983, I had just turned 21.beautiful blue with sandblasted smooth walnut silver medallion grips.It’s my go to all the time other then my 12ga.
I bought mine in 38 super is great l put in 100 rounds and no problems !!! I love it ( Colt 38 super ) 🔫🏍️
Leaving the gun exactly traditional is perfect and the wood backdrop accentuates the shear beauty of the 1911!
I love 1911 colt governments...carry one regularly

Designed by John browning a Mormon from Utah.
@@srpskabalI Interesting, I didn't know he was Mormon.
I’ve been contemplating adding a 1911 to my collection for a little while now, I think this is the one I’ve been looking for. Thanks for posting this video.
Can be tuned to 1.25 inch groups at 50 yards with stock barrel smaller with custom barrel. Best gun ever!...Ever!
Beautiful, I'm getting me one for sure! I'm not going to change a thing!
Beautiful and Powerful Sidearm
Colt .45 1911 Automatic Pistol
Thank you for your demonstration. It's very beautiful.
Buying a Mark IV 70 series next week. Never owned one but getting excited. And I'm a little nervous. Most definitely getting trained properly on this gun. Thanks for this video!
Very nice! Thanks for the close-ups.
I love mine with the nice bluing. You just can't beat them. Mine stays on my nightstand. And the 4 inch beautiful officer model carry all the time. Nice video.
The 4 3/4 is the commander. The officer is either a 3 inch barrel or 3.5. Not trying to be an ass. Just love my colts.
Are you sure?
I haven’t had a series 70 Colt (was an old one from the early 1970’s) for 15+ years. I’m really missing not having one. I’m probably going to end up with one of these. Thanks for sharing.
How much?
I own a 70s mk4 ģ1972 and I simply love it!
Great review, thanks for bringing it to us.
Probably my favorite gun to shoot. Smooth like butter and accurate.
Went looking to purchase a colt commander size 45 acp 1911 locally with no luck. The only one that I found was a 1985 vintage stainless mark 4 that was in less than good condition and a full size colt custom competition limited ss which was well above my price range $2300 plus. While pondering ways to get $2500 together being retired I found a springfield range officer target government that I ended up purchasing two days ago. It shoots as well as my Remington R1 ss or sig stx. Very happy with it, maybe a colt will be in my future someday if one becomes available for a fair price during these freedom losing times.
Great video nothing better than old school cool.
Thanks for the review. Just bought one!
Very Nice. I have 2 1911. One colt series 80 stainless commander.
The original series 70 was nicer,higher gloss finish, gold medallion colt grips, beautiful.
My father brought a Colt pre war M-1911 commercial made before 1927 in original finish in 1952 in original box with 2 factory magazine and instruction. It was much more beautiful finish. The gun performed well with no melt functions for many years.
Just the beauty of it !
Do I love 1911’s well I own 13 so yea. The key to reliable 1911’s are magazines. High quality mags are a must. I personally use 8 round Cobra mags. They are expensive but your gun will run flawlessly.
I was leaning towards the Taurus 1911. But this video change my mind. Thank you.
There are many companies making 1911’s I own 13 personally I would stay away from the lower end lower priced ones. Taurus included they just don’t seem to be as reliable.
Beautiful gun, can't wait to pick one up!
Love the deep bluing and trigger on this beauty!
I bought this EXACT pistol 1 month ago and i love it. It's my PRIZED possession.
A real classic beauty, great channel love your knowledge and taste
Awesome video 👍 keep em coming
Just bought this model a few days ago I’m loving it so far.
I just picked one up. I love them. Plain Jane is perfect
Been carrying a 1911 for 50 years almost every day
I am 50 and been carrying one for 24 years every day. Some things defy time.
I call my 70 series american express. DONT LEAVE HOME WITHOUT IT😂
How do u guys carry?
I love my Colt series 70. I’ll never part w it. She’s my baby
Next gun on my bucket list! Nice looking pistol.
I bought one of these recently and it is simply excellent. I run it hard every month in matches and it runs like a sewing machine.
Just a excellent video on the Colt 1911 model 70 Blue steel they go for $ 989 if you could find one if you see one buy it
Colt 🇺🇲💯👍
There is just something about the Colt Series 70 with the short trigger system. The short trigger Series 70 is almost like the Python trigger - it is damn near perfection. Once you have a short Series 70 trigger, you will never shoot a Series 80 long trigger again.
No no Colts fell off long time ago. Springfield mil-spec is the best for that classic look
@@TheRealZJE313 looks? He was talking about the trigger… but seriously which re-issue is the best? Colt or Springfield?
@@ZippoGuy I say Springfield.cause colt fell off back in the day. Try to go cheap and put plastic parts and series 80 and quality control issues that's y colt FILE bankruptcy several times and it was not just limited to there 1911s even there revolvers suffer too.
@@TheRealZJE313 ok thanks. Been really looking into a plane Jane old school type 1911 but that colt be spendy as hell. Thanks again.
@@TheRealZJE313 come on man... That was up until the last 5 or so years.
I'm not a fan of the series 80 trigger system, but the series 70 is perfection.
I've been a gun collector for 40 years and today Colt 1911s are the best 1911s you can buy ,I have 17 Colt 1911s from the 1920s to today ,if you look at a Colt 1911 from the side you can see the steel lines going in one direction because it's made of a single bar of steel not like other companies that use cast steel they melt steel into a cast form ,
Hey I am watching this video in England and I am so jealous of you owning such a beautiful gun.
I like'em; went to combat with one; always went bang everytime! And that's what it has to be with me,bet my life on it...
Great video sir...appreciate you posting it.
Nice Colt!
Great review Beautiful 1911 I like the rustic wood back drop. No need for a mat . I take out my Colt Double Eagle and shoot it . I carried it as a Police Officer for over 4 years.
Front sight was loose on mine no big deal i just re-staked it. Filled the front sight for elevation shoots great
A couple years ago I got a Ruger SR1911 gov. I have been carrying it every day and have enjoyed some of the modern features of it. I think I’ll save up for this model so I have an old format and a newer format....or maybe I’m just looking for a reason to buy another 1911 lol
I have this exact Colt. 100% Reliable & Very accurate. Colt now sells a leather holster & magazine carrier for the 1911 on their website, if you catch them in stock get one.
Truly a beautiful firearm
I have purchased one of these Colts I but haven't fired it yet. This gun is really nice!
Just Bought 1 A Few Weeks Ago Love it Great Pistol For the $$$
Thanks for the review!!!!
I got one and it is very nice. Not as highly finished as my old 70s issue one though. The new sights won’t allow it to ride in a GI holster. I replaced the “rosewood” grips with a set of original checkered walnut and it makes a very “close to original” series 70.
I will own one of these one day. Looks so nice!
Used one in the 80 while in central america, took care of business. Full metal jacket back then and reliable. BAD GUY DIDNT KNOW WHAT HIT HIM. RELIABLE AND A MUST HAVE HAS TO BE A COLT 1911 ACP .
Beautiful piece of steel
I think the match barrel designation from any factory is like having Corinthian leather in your old Pontiac. It is a marketing ploy. The biggest thing is in how it’s fit to the gun. Pretty gun. Want one.
It’s hard to see how anyone could improve upon this beautiful Colt 1911. The design has been around for over 100 years and still retains its popularity with gun owners and shooters and for good reason.
Needless to say. Legendary pistol
You Have Sold Me On A New Colt Classic 1911 🔫😀😊👍🏼 I’m Like You I Like Original No Frills Style
Was thinking of the new Anaconda, but they are having a recall so I will wait until they make 'em right.
This is my new "want it" gun.
How many
I have an remington r1 commander 1911 series 80 as i found out. Added a fiber optic front sight bad eyes so it works for me.
Still shoots smooth had it cerekoted a jet black
Got the same one
Love it
Super cool Gun! Great video!
A thing of beauty.
My most prized gun is my Colt series 70 1911. She’s a beauty and a beast. Mine is stock. No frills. No fancy sights or grips. She’s perfect just the way she is
I like the wood background!
Beautiful firearm, very enjoyable video. Thank you.
Colt needs to produce the 1837 Paterson revolver again. Like the 1911, it was an Army sidearm which was later replaced by more modern arms. Give the Paterson a fine finish, add nicely checkered grips, and it is sure to win the hearts of obsolete weapons fan, just as the 9111 continues to do. Despite it generally clunky appearance, as well as the equally clunky feel, and other short comings the 1911 has a strong cult-like following. Perhaps Colt could score that way with the Patterson revolver.
Very nice looking gun 👍🏽👍🏽
Colt definitely is synonymous with perfection for 🔫
A true classic. A real beauty!
What a beautiful gun. I want one. Thanks
un arma espectacular una leyenda hermosa pistola una reliquia
Beautiful!
Perfection
Beautiful. Perfect. Greetings from Brazil.
This one, and Walter p38 my fauvorites!
Great gun. Thank you for sharing.
Great video I just picked one up! What’s the difference between a short trigger and a long trigger?
