.38 Super Commander Login/Join

Gents,

After all of our discussions of the .357 SIG vs. the .38 Super it appears that I may have scored a pre-series 70 Colt Commander. A long time friend and M-14 enthusiast has a very nice pistol that he is willing to trade me. He's sending photos this week. The pistol has Bo-Mar sights and the Armand Swenson marked controls. He believes that Armand built the gun.

As soon as I get pictures I will post this bit of history for all to see...

I plan to add it to the collection. It will look good next to my SIGS and Colts.

An Armand Swenson? That would settle the debate for me pretty quick.

I agree, an Armand Swenson would be worth some additional effort / consideration, for sure. Congratulations!

A Swenson .38 Super Commander will be an excellent addition to any collection.

I have a .38 Super Combat Commander. I had to have a Kart barrel fitted, because I was shooting patterns, not groups with the factory barrel.

Please post pics.


IMO, Mr. Swenson was a master!!

This Dan Wesson commander size .38 super is way more accurate than I can shoot and is the finest 1911 style gun I own.
