That is nice! I hope the rail gun thing is just for the show. I see it also has a proper beavertail. I guess there goes another $1000.:D

hmmm...colt....Colt...
Aren't they the folks who make the 6920? They're making 1911s now? Neat!
:D
Nice to see COLT is in "touch" with their customer base in addtion to being so responsive and accomodating to the customer base so expediantly, NOT !
My belief is that the Colt's Rail Gun is a spoof attempt on USGs' Rail Gun. I doubt that it's going to be the commercial name. Just speculation however.
"CRG" is an acronym for FBI's "Crisis Response Group" and Colt could not commercially use that w/o FBI's approval which I doubt would happen.
It is a step in the right direction evolutionarily speaking for the 1911 and Colt IMO.
Glad to see they responded so quickly. About three years QUICKLY as well !
I see RAIL GUN on the side of a weapon and I'm thinking of something completely different! :D
I agree that it looks like crap on an otherwise nice pistol. Let's hope it goes away.

Sorry I had to :o

I like a high-cut front strap on a 1911, but I don't like Colt's version. I would rather they leave it "uncut", than use that uncomfortable and unattractive contour.
It appears that it has the typical Colt razor sharp edges. I suppose when they are paying union wages, they can't afford to make the edges any softer.
Oh - and I don't like front serrations, but I may be in the minority on that.
That rollmark just sucks!! I'll stick to my S&W tac rail 1911!
