A beautiful Colt Series 70
I sold this gun about 3-4 years ago for in part financial issues and bought it back today when the buyer placed it for sale. So glad I got it again! Great shooter!

See pictures I just took.

Congrats on getting that one back - very nice 1911!

Congratulations

It is hard to get one back after you have parted with it

Your "pictures" are two second videos, which is an iPhone thing that you can disable if you don't want your "pictures" coming out as videos.

Nice looking gun. Easy to see why you're glad to have it back.

I think I saved them now as final pictures.

Thanks; this new iphone X max has so many settings, one keeps getting surprises!

Excuse the smudges. It is hard to take pics of the deep blue finish.

Okay, not quite the same thing... Razz

Sold my first 4" M-66 , stainless sight model, way back in 1979 to another cop who needed a sidearm for the job. I bought it in 1972 IIRC.

He was a good kid, I wanted to help him out.

Twenty five years later , I see he is having a retirement party. I contacted him and he sold me my gun back for the same price he paid me!!

Nice to get the ones you wish you never parted with, back again. Congrats.
