New Gun Day (NGD), IMhO, is always a cause for celebration and it looks like you good a fine one there.
I like the barrel length, the finish and the grips (even though the grips don't fit me and I'd put a set of Pachmayrs for shooting--but I'd keep the original ones for show.)
I'm a Ruger fan but I can't deny the Colt has a certain 'class' to it that sets it apart from others.
One thing though, maybe one of the mods or someone could resize your photo. I can't because on the rare occasion I post a photo I have to go back to the instructions in the tech section and fight through them like every time was my first time.
Good luck!
