MKIV Series 70 Government Model MKIV Series 70 Gold Cup National Match Series 70 Gunsite Pistol Model 1911A1 may be the most modified handgun in the world. They include beavertail safety grip, slotted Commander-style hammer, relief cut under the trigger guard, beveled magazine well, slightly longer trigger, flat top rib and angled slide serrations. Colt chose some of the most popular modifications to perform on their new enhanced models. These modifications are the result of Colt's desire to meet the shooters demand for a more "customized" pistol. Included were Government models, Commander, Officer's, Gold Cup and Combat Elite. Beginning of 1992 another change was made to Model 1911A1 in the form of an enhanced pistol. In 1983, Colt introduced Series 80 models, which had an additional passive firing pin safety lock. Modifications in the new model were slightly heavier slide and slotted collet barrel bushing.
Model 1911A1 was manufactured by Colt until 1971, when the Series 70 Government Model superseded it. ? Brazilian Models 1911A1 COLT MODEL 1911A1 1970 - CURRENT
