Colt Government 1911 Competition Series

The Colt Government represents the pinnacle of 1911 design for competitive shooters. This is a pistol built from the ground up to win matches, with every component selected and refined for performance against the clock.

Competition-Focused Design

The Series 70 firing system is the choice of serious competitors for its reliability and crisp trigger performance. The National Match barrel ensures the accuracy demanded by precision shooting, while the Novak adjustable fiber optic sights allow you to dial in your zero and track your hits downrange.

Ergonomic Excellence

The custom G10 grips feature a scalloped design that provides positive control without unnecessary bulk. The upswept beavertail grip safety and undercut trigger guard keep the pistol sitting low in your hand, reducing muzzle rise and improving shot-to-shot speed. The 3-hole aluminum trigger breaks cleanly at 4.5 to 6 pounds.

Engineered for Longevity

The dual spring recoil system reduces felt recoil while extending the life of your recoil spring—important when you're running thousands of rounds through your competition gun. The forged carbon steel frame and slide, finished in a durable blue, provide a classic appearance backed by modern reliability.
