It’s a good gun but it only comes with one mag and no front strap checkering!? No regrets though, and flawless with 200 rounds.

Good gun overall. Pistol came with a small finish blimesh. For the money, it should have came with more than one mag. Sights are awesome. Mag release leaves plenty to be desired. I could have bought 4 Glocks for the price of this gun. It%u2019s accurate a

Buds was awesome. The Colt M45A1 is awesome. It is a beautiful piece and shoots like a dream. The only reason I cannot give 5 stars is because for $1,500 you get one lousy 7 round magazine.

Being a former member of the USMC pistol team in HI, I new from the first shot I was going to love it. My only problem was picking which eyebrow on the gnat I wanted to take out. After 50 rounds it was smooth as glass.

Colt no longer uses the Cerakote "FDE" finish. The entire series of M45A1 USMC-issued guns were returned to Colt due to flaking of the Cerakote. The new finish is a surface treatment.

Straight to it. The finish on this gun is absolutely phenomenal. I've never seen anything quite like it, and it is tough as nails. Same thing for the grips. They have a great bite with gloves or flesh, but are not too rough. This pistol has beautiful aest

I own several 1911's including originals from WW2 to Wilson Combat. I like guns that our designed for the military. This is essentially a Colt M45A1 and it appears to be well made. I have not fired it yet but I have other Colts and I believe the reviews I

Great gun! I love shooting this gun. Only thing preventing 5 stars for this gun is the take up on the trigger. This is my first purchase from Bud's and it was painless. I would buy from Bud's again.
