I'm assuming this was used? I would have bought that in a heartbeat if I saw it around here. I've been looking for exactly that for a while now, a quality full sized full metal 9mm. Do you happen to know where this place is? Perhaps I can call them and have them ship it out.

Must say if I see one thats not a beater at that price I'd grab it. I have 1911's in .45, .22, and .38 Super. I still want one in 9m/m and .38 spl. wadcutter.

I have the Colt 70 series in 9mm, absolutely nothing wrong with it. Go back and get it.
All my other Colts are .45, but the 9mm is fun. |

I have several people I could resell that pistol to for twice that! 9mm 1911s are great! you should really consider it!

Passing that up at $225 wasn't the move I would have made.

I would have bought it in a heartbeat. Also it is not like it is the only 9mm 1911. Several companies make them

I can understand passing it up. If I was looking for a specific caliber I wouldn't buy a different one I didn't want or need.
