That Commander does look slick

by Catoosa, Wednesday, March 11, 2015, 09:47 (3550 days ago) @ Rob Leahy

I have an early '90's vintage M1991A1 Combat Commander with the old crappy finish and the billboard slide. It ain't much to look at, but it is a honey of a shooter and a great carry gun. The many of the folks on the Colt forum seem to think those early Series 80 guns, despite their looks, were some of the best made and most reliable guns Colt has made in recent years.
