Colt Top Rib

[DMark]

Here is another in progress pic of my Colt 1911 in 38 Super that Xxxx Xxxxxxx is doing for me.

This is one of Colt's "Enhanced" models from the mid - 90s. These 1911s came with a rib on the top of the slide like a Gold Cup, but unlike the Gold Cup did not have any serrations. That blank rib always looked sort of naked to me.

Before.

I saw this gun yesterday and awhile back when he cut the front strap. It's looking really good.

I like it...definitely dresses it up without going overboard.

Very nice. The .38 Super and 1911 platform are just a natural combination. Should be a sweet shooter.

It is.

I put a little over 1000 rounds through it shooting a couple of IDPA matches and some other train ups. Agree that its a great round for the 1911..., makes me wonder why it took me so long to get one.
