COLT MK IV Series 70

Overview

The Colt 1911 Series 70 is a classic version of the iconic Colt 1911, designed to deliver the original look and feel of the 1911 while incorporating Colt's Series 70 firing system. Unlike the Series 80, the Series 70 does not include a firing pin block, giving it a slightly smoother trigger pull and a design that's closer to the original 1911 models. This makes it popular among enthusiasts who appreciate the historical aspects and the enhanced trigger feel for range and competitive shooting. The Series 70 is typically chambered in .45 ACP and includes the traditional 5" barrel, a blued steel finish, and walnut grips with the Colt medallion. With fixed sights and a 7+1 magazine capacity, it stays true to the original Government model's classic aesthetic. This model is sought after by purists and collectors for its vintage appeal and by competitive shooters for its clean trigger pull and traditional styling. It's a go-to option for those who want a classic 1911 with Colt's renowned craftsmanship and historical design elements.YOS
