Well I haven't owned an offical Colt auto-loader in a while; but when I
did, they served me well. Here are the ones that I put my faith in quite
a few year's ago:
a) .45 cal steel Combat Commander
b) .45 cal Lightweight (CLW) Commander
d) several .45 cal 70 series Colt Government models
e) 2x 70 series .45 cal Colt Gold Cup National Match Guns
*FootNote: the first two on the list, I stole for $125 each.
Like I said, all of them were fine weapons. Wish I had 'em all again. On
the lighter side, I even owned a Colt Jr. 22 cal short auto-loader that
served me well. I just never trusted that caliber at all. So all in all, I
will have to give the
old Colt's a thumbs up!
