Editor’s Note:

The Colt Combat Commander is a 1911 that looks as good as it shoots. It runs well and seems to be a durable handgun. That said, users accustomed to newer, polymer, striker-fired guns may find it a little lackluster. But tried and true 1911 fans know the value of a good ole Colt 1911. The Combat Commander doesn’t disappoint.

Product Description

The Colt Combat Commander is a 1911 chambered in .45 ACP. It features a barrel length of 4.25 inches with an overall length of 7.75 inches. Sporting Novak sights, it’s finished off with a nice black frame.

Springfield Armory’s Emissary 1911 is where classic meets modern.  It functions just like an old school 1911 but has modern touches such as the full-length guide rod and a heavy-profile, bushingless bull barrel.  This gun looks and feels quality.

The Colt Defender has stood the test of time for a reason. This small 1911 is a workhorse on the range! It would make for a good backup gun due to its size. It can be a little particular when it comes to ammo, but once you figure out what it likes it’s pretty reliable.
