[QUOTE="OHJEEZE, post: 3642569, member: 47878"] I can remember back in the late 80's and early 90's, back before I could purchase a pistol / hand gun. The Colt Delta Elite 10mm was my dream pistol. (I saw a few posted already, looks just like mine) Well when the day came when I could buy a hand gun, low and behold it was not the Colt. I bought a S&W 629 6.5" as my first..... I did end up buying the Colt Delta Elite, but it was like third or fourth in line. Meh..... It is a 1911, nothing to write home about....... It feels good in the hand........ But the 1911 is not as easy to make good hits with..... I will not buy another one (unless I get it for 25% of what I could sell it for 😁), they just are not worth the price they bring now days! Edit: The .gov inflation calculator says that a colt delta elete for $400 back in 1992 should cost $792 today! 🙂 [/QUOTE]
