I studied, read, listened, then looked high and low and saved and scrimped to be able to own one.
Arrived this afternoon and for 32 years old it's in better condition than I even hoped for!
Guess one is never too old to get excited about a Colt, huh?
Here's a quick pic:

That is one beautiful pistol!
Are you going to shoot it or preserve it?

I doubt I'll break it in at the match.
That'll be a job for the trusty Commander.
btw: can I shoot my vintage Ted Williams 18" alley sweeper at the pistol/shotgun match?
It's the only scattergun I own.
