Are Colts Really Worth It?

Good lord. That is awful. Is this just the very new production guns or going back a few years?? All of the Colt's I've ever shot were pretty decent, though I haven't seen any of the new ones.

This was two colts I looked at last year, I believe. I decided... never mind. I am sure they all are not like that. But 2 in the same shop were, and these were new guns. I passed and lost interest in Colts.

If I remember right, there was even something akin to "gouges" on 1 edge of the grip saftey. I was really shocked.

The new 38 Super I looked at was perfect and it was all I could do to keep from buying the gun on spure of moment. I walked away to think about it, came back next day and it was gone. Win some, lose some.
