[QUOTE="OK Corgi Rancher, post: 4178892, member: 45773"] I recently ordered a new Colt 1911. It was supposed to be a Classic model series 70 (has the 50s-60s style roll marks on the slide) with European Union import markings (SN and "US23" on barrel, slide and frame) as it was produced for the EU market. Nothing special but just a little bit different. The first and third pictures are of the gun I ordered. The other two are what I received. I can't contact the seller until tomorrow. From what I've read these models are usually made and sold to people who want a base for a custom gun. It is a little different and I can't decide if I want to keep it or not. I already have a Classic model (without the EU markings). You can see the sticker on the trigger of the gun I receeived reflects the correct model number...O1911C-EC. Even the box has the correct model number on it. I think the sterile look is kinda cool to be honest: [ATTACH type="full" alt="col113047.jpg"]436132[/ATTACH][ATTACH type="full" alt="B.jpg"]436133[/ATTACH][ATTACH type="full" alt="col113047_2.jpg"]436134[/ATTACH][ATTACH type="full" alt="A.jpg"]436135[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
