    Default My First Colt / .380 Government Model(Pics)

    I can't believe it's taken this long but I finally own a Colt.

    It's a Colt Government Model .380 ACP MK IV Series 80

    The gun is almost a miniature 1911 w/ a similar barrel bushing, safety, slide lock, Beaver tail (No back strap safety).

    The grip and barrel are longer than the Mustang and the feel in my hand is near perfect.

    I got the gun, box(Tattered as it may be), all the papers and two 7 rnd mags.

    Here are the Pics(That's the original price tag, from Dean's Place(?), not what I paid)

    Cruzans, I know what a nice one of these goes for. Although it was a good price it wasn't as good at the original sails tag.

    I wonder where Dean's Place was?

    No clue on where - but if that $320 had been right, I was going to offer you $350 so you could make a little money - ha, ha. I've seen mustangs obviously but none of those 380's - very nice. Ok, I'll go $400
