COLT COMBAT ELITE GOVERNMENT

Overview

The Colt Combat Elite 1911 Handgun 9MM pairs the classic 1911 design with modern enhancements for confident, precise shooting. Built on a stainless steel frame with a two-tone PVD finish, it features an optics-ready slide that accepts today's popular red dot sights while retaining a tritium front night sight and black serrated rear sight for clear aiming in varied light conditions. A 5-inch National Match stainless steel barrel with a 1:16 twist supports tight groups and consistent performance.This model's dual spring recoil system helps soften felt recoil and extend spring life, making it well suited for extended range sessions, competition practice, or defensive use where control and follow-up shots matter. Ambidextrous controls, an upswept beavertail grip safety, and half-checkered scalloped G10 grips promote a secure, comfortable hold for a wide range of shooters. With its blend of heritage styling and modern capability, this 1911 reflects Colt's long-standing reputation for thoughtful design and dependable craftsmanship.
