I've had this for quite a few years but never really sat down and took some photos of it.

Do you guys consider these "Real" Colts?





The heat treating really shows up in the pictures. Not so evident in real life.

Nice gun, I consider them to be half brothers to Hartford made Colts.

The Argetine M1927 Sistema is a legitimate Colt licensed copy. Although it is not actually a Colt it is usually considered to be almost in the same provenence as a Colt as are the other licensed copies that were made.

Of course they are real Colts, built on Colt machinery by Colt-trained employees, using a Colt (Browning) design.
