Hey All, For your consideration, a 3rd Generation Colt Single Action Army that has been sitting in my safe since I purchased it. It looks like the government will be extending (again) my stay OCONUS, so I think it might as well go to a good home. The color case hardening is nice and bright, the action is crisp, and the bore is in great shape. I'm not sure what year it was produced, but I'm sure it could be determined by serial number. Asking $1900, shipped. If you're in Alaska, and don't require shipping, $1850. Jack

Thanks, Major! I'll do that.

Seems like a good quality respirator and a well-ventilated environment is the way to go here. I really appreciate the excellent information, gents. Jack

PM on the way

Also wondering if this is sold.

Are these still available?

Greetings, I was wondering if anyone has any experience working with moose antler, or possibly elk. I want to make a pair of grips for my colts out of the first moose I took a few years ago, but I have no experience working with the material. Anyone done this? Regards, Jack

I think you gentlemen make some really solid points. I'm planning on taking my Combat Elite as my backup pistol; I've got about 3,500 rounds through it and I trust it to run like it should. After reading some of the comments, I'm making an effort to evaluate my choices dispassionately, but it's a difficult thing for me since I love this platform so much. As a boy, I grew up reading Col. Cooper and attending this course is something I've wanted to do for 25 years. I really appreciate the input.

Hey Everyone, I'm very interested in getting a Special Combat Government, but I'm having a hard time justifying it over the 1911 "Level 2" or the Combat Elite that's sitting at the local gun shop. Aside from the Series 70/80 and the difference in the finish, is the SCG worth the extra $700? Any help would be appreciated. I'm taking the Pistol 250 course at Gunsite this summer and I want to pick up a pistol for the course. Jack
