I am totally satisfied and happy with my Colt Competition Government 1911 pistol. It has not experienced any malfunction in over 300 round fired. The pistol is accurate, easy to maintain and very comfortable to shoot. I'm very happy I decided to buy it.

Q: I am pretty sure this one with this part#/ UPC does have gray grips. Previous answers to this question is incorrect but I would call the store to confirm but mine came with gray.
Author: Alan D.
(3) ANSWERS
A: Alan - And from what I can find now, you are 100% correct. This particular UPC has apparently been discontinued. The pictures I find on the internet, identified by this same UPC, do show the pistol with two-toned grey grips. The previous answer is incorrect. thanks for pointing this out Alan. We do, in spite of our best efforts, sometimes make mistakes - usually on items that have been discontinued, and are no longer available on the manufacturers web site for verification. Thanks again.
