This Series 70 Custom Competition pistol delivers hand-fitted precision, stainless steel strength, and match-grade performance from the Colt Custom Shop.

The Novak red fiber-optic front sight pairs with an adjustable Novak rear sight for fast, bright sight alignment. The fully blended magwell speeds reloads while keeping edges smooth. VZ G10 Operator grips add traction and control without adding bulk. Each pistol is hand-fit by Master Gunsmiths for tight lock-up and repeatable accuracy.
