WTS: Colt National Match 1911 45ACP - custom built in 1960's
NOW $700
I have for sale a custom hand built 1911 in 45ACP. This is built with a Colt National Match slide, NM barrel, NM bushing, and NM adjustable sights. It is fitted to an Essex arms frame (very low 4 digit serial number 8xxx). Based on my internet research, these Colt/Essex guns were built in the late 1960's by individual gunsmiths for competition. It has extensive hand work on the entire gun. It is VERY tight, has a perfect trigger, and extremely accurate.
I traded for this on the forums a few months ago. I'm selling it because I don't shoot it much and am looking for something a little more practical for IDPA and my go-to gun. A gun like this should be enjoyed by someone who appreciates the collectible aspects of it, more than I do.
Comes with two Colt mags and the original soft range case I bought with it.
Prefer FTF near Auburn, WA; but willing to ship to FFL at your expense. Willing to drive partway to meet, or will be at the WAC show this weekend.
High res photos on request.
