    Colt National Match Mid-Range

    Pretty neat 1911, a 1961 Colt National Match in .38 Special Mid-Range (full wadcutter).

    Still has original barrel (a lot of early guns had the barrel upgraded) and beveled recoil plug unique to the early Natl' Match.
    Unfortunately no box or papers... and no spare mags, which are damn expensive.

    Follow-up: Ran into an issue at the range. Accuracy was incredible, but I was experiencing "nosediving" after the first round on all three magazines that came with the pistol. A close inspection indicated that the internal projection of the slide stop was too long and was coming in contact with the nose of the next cartridge causing the nosedive. Zenith responded immediately by sending me a return authorization and I got the pistol back one week to the day after sending it in. They replaced the slide stop, test fired the pistol with all three magazines and it worked flawlessly. The note they returned with the test report said they sent along two extra magazines "due to my inconvenience". I'm a satisfied customer.

    Got it to the range this afternoon and ran 50 rounds through it flawlessly. Yes, they probably should have caught the problem before shipping it to me, but they jumped on it and made it right in record time and threw in the magazine "sweetener".

    is that about the llama? if so i dont get it cause ive seen them sell for near 400 on GB and it works with 1911 Mags.

    Refers to the magazines for somd_mustang's 1961 Colt National Match that shoots .38 Special - not the Llama. ;) I've only seen one of those 1911's once but never got to shoot it. It's an amazing find!
