Produced in 1949. Pinned adjustable blade front and Elliason rear sights, with the heavy flat-sided barrel marked with the one line address and the Rampant Colt over "MATCH TARGET" on the left side, and the standard markings on the slide. Smooth trigger and serrated grip straps, with checkered thumb rest grips. In an unlabeled maroon Colt box, with a pair of checkered black plastic Colt grips and assorted small parts.

Excellent, with 99% plus of the original blue finish, showing a few areas of bright gray patina along the high edges, minimal spotting and a small patch of dull gray on the backstrap, and mild overall handling marks. Grips are very good, with light pressure dents. Box is very good, with some wear along the edges and signs of creasing and tearing. Action is excellent.
