hi, i just wanted to know the approximate value of a very good condition (low round count) Colt Series 70 1911a1 .45acp. I know next to nothing about Colts and had heard that these pistols are hard to find. The gun has beavertail grips and has had some slight improvements done to it. Thanks in advance
 
Value can only be determined with clear pics of both sides, and preferably close-ups of the mods. Too bad it's not original but that was the case with a lot of the Series 70 Colts.
 
Some people get incredible deals on Series 70 1911's - others don't even see the gun before it's sold. Right NAA?
 
Series 70's and other Colts....

Just missed a real nice one at the two day local show out at the fairgrounds this past fall. Sold on Friday nite during set up. One guy setting up his table to another. Was browsing tables after I setup my own stuff. Missed it by a matter of seconds.... I think it went for $450.... :(

Then there was a plastic zip-loc bag under another table containing all the parts for a pre Series 70 government 1911 everything minus the frame... EVERYTHING else... went for $150... Only heard about it when the lucky buyer showed me on Sat morning. Sometimes it pays to look under the tables, too.....:redface:
