Many 1911 fans are partial to 70 series, curious what ownership looks like
The term is commonly used to say "lacking a firing pin block" for about any make and model. Even by Colt in the 21st century.
I was there and to me it is a Colt Government Model with the patent Accurizor bushing and the appropriate markings. ONLY.
Oh, yeah, I have one of those. I also have a Combat Commander and an ACE .22 made in the 1970s with "70" in the serial number but that does not make them "Series 70" guns.
Yes and yes. And all my Colt 1911s are neither of those. I have 5 1911s, none have firing pin blocks (Schwartz safety and developments/knockoffs), and none have Accurizer barrel bushings. I own 3 Goverment models, and two Combat Commanders. Never shot myself in the butt like some YouTube experts, nor scattered shots all over the paper like other experts claim will happen if you don't have a special super tight match bushing.The term is commonly used to say "lacking a firing pin block" for about any make and model.
