    Greetings,

    Up for sale is a late model Colt Lightweight Commander in 45 ACP that I received in trade. This is a very nice 1911, everything about it feels good. I put a few rounds through it to make sure it functions properly, which it does. I was able to routinely hit a basketball sized target offhand at about 50 yards. If I was into 1911s, I would definitely keep it.

    Price is $900 preferably in the Lafayette area, but I get araound. I priced them online and this is competitive especially considering the upgrades.

    • It comes with 2 x 8rd Wilson Combat and 1 x 10rd Chip McCormick
      I think the Wilsons are 8rd mags at least. I'm pretty sure they are.

      There are a few aftermarket items
    • Ambidextrous safety
    • Flared magazine well
    • Giant tritium sights that are easy to see and really easy to shoot with. The pistol can balance upside down on the sights as seen in the photo.
    • Full length guide rod
    • Increased weight recoil spring

    I test fired it because the guide rod and the recoil spring ha been swapped, it functions. I expected recoil to be intense with the lightweight and smaller frame compared to my other 1911, but it was smooth and easy to stay on target.

    I really don't want any trades right now, but here are some of the things I'd consider-
    • A good S&W revolver
    • Mossberg 500/590 12G with 8+ rd capacity
    • An M1 Carbine
    • A good AR in 556/223, but I'll be picky on this.


    You can contact me through the site if you have any questions.
