This is a Colt owned by a NES member. It came in with a host of issues. First it had a Millett "duel crimp" front sight which was removed, then the offending holes were welded up and a new dovetail was cut. The rear Colt sight was replaced with a Novak low mount sight. A new McCormack beavertail was close fit as well as a new trigger. The collet bushing was replaced with an EGW oversized bushing, and the barrel recrowned with a deep bevel. All the scratches and dings were smoothed out prior to rebluing.
