Colt Government Model "BB" Series Semi-Automatic Pistol with Box

Manufactured in 1970 as part of the transition between the original Government Model and the Series 70 run with a "BB" stamped on top of the barrel and on the right side of the frame below the serial number to denote installation of a Series 70-style "four finger" bushing and Accurizor barrel. Blade front and square notch rear sights, the model marking and Rampant Colt on the left side of the slide, "5/VP" and "O" on the trigger guard, and a pair of checkered grips. Includes the original box. Provenance: The Dr. Robert Azar Collection

ConditionExcellent, retains 99% plus of the original blue finish with only the slightest handling marks and some very light cycling wear. The grips are also excellent with minimal handling evidence and crisp checkering. Mechanically excellent. The box is fine with some light wear, adhesive residue, and a small tear in the label.
