For sale: Colt WWII Reproduction that was sent to MARS Armament for the THUG package. Gun will come with 3 slide stops: One Wilson BP and 2 Colt slide stops (one is cut flush to the frame for use with CT grips.) It will also come with a spare fitted extractor. Comes with all boxes and paper work from Colt.
About a year after I received the gun from Steve, I had a Kart barrel and bushing installed. The gun will come with both the Kart barrel and Kart bushing as well as the Colt barrel and MARS bushing.
The Colt barrel probably has 2,000 rounds on it and the Kart has a little over 1,000 rounds on it.
There is wear on the parkerizing and it shows that is has been carried and shot. It is a workhorse not a show pony. With the Kart barrel and the custum rear sight it is a very accurate 1911 that is not finicky.
I shoot it with Wilson ETMs, 47d's, and Cobra Gen 2 mags. I have only shot hardball and Winchester 230 gr.Ranger through this gun.
I shot this gun in a 2 day class recently with Frank Proctor (WOTG) with zero issues and no cleaning. I used Wilson Lube and by the end of the second day the Kart barrel and bushing were black, but it still functioned 100%.
I am asking $3,050 with VZ Frag grips or $3,150 with tan crimson trace grips.
Sold pending funds to LibertyTactical.
