This Colt started out as a 1973 nickel finished Series 70. The nickel had to go. The pistol build for business. All new internals, EGW bushing on the Colt factory barrel. Checkering 25 lpi and a new matching MSH. Controls are simple Colt pieces. Magpul grips over an IonBond finish. No funny business, just tough. HardWorkColt 040722-01T.jpg
 
Gorgeous work as usual. Classy and simple.
Love that old lighter in the pic, pretty sure my dad had the same one when I was a kid. Cool memory.
