Colt Competition Series 70 .45 ACP
The Colt Competition Series 70 in .45 ACP stands as a formidable contender for those who seek excellence on the firing line. Crafted with precision and built to endure, this pistol is designed for competitive shooters who demand reliability and performance.
This model features a corrosion-resistant stainless steel construction that ensures durability under demanding conditions. The heart of its design lies in the National Match Barrel, measuring at an exacting 5 inches, offering unparalleled accuracy shot after shot. Complemented by Genuine Novak Adjustable Fiber Optic Sights, both front and rear, it provides exceptional visibility and target acquisition.
The ergonomics are enhanced through Custom G10 Grips coupled with an Upswept Beavertail Grip Safety, delivering superior control by keeping the firearm low in your hand. An Undercut Trigger Guard further aids in maintaining firm handling during rapid fire sequences.
Engineered with a Dual Recoil Spring System™, this Colt reduces felt recoil significantly while extending the lifespan of its springs—an advantage not lost on serious competitors seeking longevity from their equipment.
The updated Series 70 Firing System is favored among competition circles for its clean and crisp trigger pull. This single-action hammer-fired mechanism operates within a trigger weight range of approximately 4.5 to 6 pounds via a three-hole aluminum trigger style that complements precise shooting disciplines.
