COLT ACE

Overview

The Colt Service Model Ace is a highly collectible .22 LR adaptation of the full-size Colt Government Model 1911. Developed as a training pistol, the Service Model Ace uses Colt's distinctive floating-chamber system to provide more recoil than a conventional .22 LR pistol while maintaining the familiar size, weight, controls, and handling characteristics of the 1911.This example features a polished blue finish, adjustable target rear sight, checkered wood grips with gold Colt medallions, and the classic Colt rampant-horse slide marking. The pistol shows handling and finish wear consistent with its age while retaining an attractive overall appearance.
