I got paid this morning and headed straight to my LGS. My order had arrived, a Colt Gold Cup National Match!!!! The pistol is BEAUTIFUL!! The fit and finish is perfect. I can't wait till tomorrow morning to put it threw it's maiden range session.
Just to be safe, only load 2 or 3 rounds in it the first few times you fire it.
I bought one brand new raped and oiled from the local gun shop. I took it to the local range, loaded 7 rounds and it went full auto and like to scared me to death.
Be careful.
I took it out this afternoon. It is everything I hoped it would be. It seems to like 4.2 grains TIGHTGROUP with a 230 grain LRN High-tech coated bullet. More testing & pics later this week.
Agreed! sdb, that's a real honey. I've always been fond of the traditional style thumb hammer like your Colt has. Yours is a beauty, and it sounds like it runs as good as it looks!
