Manufactured from 1970 to 1983. Patridge front and Elliason adjustable rear sights, standard markings, adjustable skeletonized trigger, serrated control surfaces and gripstraps, and checkered gold medallion grips. With a Colt wood grain box numbered to pistol "70N23935" (only 2 off).

Near new original blue finish, showing some light handling marks overall. Grips are equally excellent, with sharp checkering. Box is fair, with some taped tears on the exterior and a section of the carton removed to make room for a "blue magic" desiccant jar (included). Mechanically excellent.
