I just went to my local gun shop and found a Colt 1911 that I have never seen before. It had slim wood grips, Novak sights with a fiber optic front sight, and a national match barrel. The odd thing is the frame to slide fit was very tight and it had no special markings on the gun. They had 3 of them and I did notice that the serial numbers on all of them started with CC. Has anyone seen or heard of this model?

I have had mine for several months. I think it's a great blend of features for a carry gun. I only have about 500 rounds through it, but have had no malfunctions. Everything fits and runs slick. I will eventually swap the fiber optic front out for a night sight, but that's it. I traded a stainless Springfield TRP for it with no regrets.

Thats the one, thanks for the info. I put one on layaway while I was at the shop, I'm not crazy about the front sight either so I might end up swapping it out. I can't wait to get it out of jail and put some rounds through it.

I wish the TALO CCO had all the same features as the TALO Government Model. It would be the ideal carry gun in my opinion. I would have one for sure.

These TALO models all seem nice, even if one or two features are a compromise they are good representations of desirable upgrades. I have the Wiley Clapp gov't model, and the only thing I dislike is the angled slide serrations. Definitely worth the price if you consider the cost of making the same upgrades on a base pistol like a 1991.

That's a nice lookin' 1911.
I wish functional, sensible looking guns were the norm..
