Colt LW Commander
« on: March 15, 2015, 08:55:35 PM »
I've been looking for one for a while and had it in my hand yesterday!  For those that don't know, Colt 1911s have to pre 1996 to be sold here.

Problem was the consignor wanted too much at $950.00!

I've got the cash but....

Damn....

Older Colt LW Commanders are like hens teeth and unicorn poop around here. I know folks who would jump at that price if it was in good condition.


As an aside, I know their are some really silly laws up in your region, but why specifically pre-'96 on a 1911?
"I expect perdition, I always have. I keep this building at my back, and several guns handy, in case perdition arrives in a form that's susceptible to bullets. I expect it will come in the disease form, though. I'm susceptible to diseases, and you can't shoot a damned disease." ~ Judge Roy Bean, Streets of Laredo

For the Patriots of this country, the Constitution is second only to the Bible for most. For those who love this country, but do not share my personal beliefs, it is their Bible. To them nothing comes before the Constitution of these United States of America. For this we are all labeled potential terrorists. ~ Dean Garrison

"When it comes to the enemy, just because they ain't pullin' a trigger, doesn't mean they ain't totin' ammo for those that are."~PegLeg

Because of the reaffirmation on the Clinton gun control act by Bacon Hill legislature during the Romney years!

I meant 1994 not 96..

And...it was real clean and seldom fired...  Just can't justify it right now.

With scarcity, prices rise. 

I'd seriously consider a different state.

I tried 25 years ago but she hated tornado alley and missed her family!  She'll never leave again...
