Class: Modern Handgun
Description:

Produced by Colt at an unknown date, this pistol is ergonomically excellent while featuring a futuristic desing, the wide alloy main body extending back to rest on the web of the hand and narrowing towards the muzzle, providing excellent balance and control while retaining high "pointing" ability. The mechanism is unique in Colt's auto-pistols, with a detachable blue polymer tube magazine feeding from the left side, with a rear cocking knob, heavy bull barrel, Patridge front and adjustable rear sights. The lower section is elegantly milled steel, leading to a smooth, ambidextrous "coke bottle" profile grip. With a Colt factory letter, confirming it's status as an "exotic advanced experimental and prototype design concept". Factory letter states under special features: "Exotic space age design".

Rating Definition:

Very good, with some light spotting and handling marks, along with the type of machine and tool marks appropriate for a prototype weapon. Grip shows some mild dents and scuffs. Appears mechanically functional, but is not guaranteed as a useable or safe firearm.
