Purchased Colt 1911 government royal blue finish just last week took it to the range and shot at once it's a great shooting gun only put two clips through it but I'm not crazy about the Battle sites and do not want to have it cut for novax so putting it and a Beretta apx one up for trade out the door I paid about 16 for the colt and about three something for the Beretta I put the trade value at both of them around 16 total looking to trade for a high-end 1911 and would put a little cash with it if I need to
