You will do better if you post in the correct Equipment Exchange section.
And might I suggest that you read the Rules.
Cheers.

Have been looking for one too, without any success.
If you are not after an original Colt, the easiest way is to get a good gunsmith to build one for you. Armco or Dlask can both do it. The cost is around $1,000 - $1,400 depending on what parts they use.

KMD said:I picked up one that was posted here about a year ago as well. I have been tempted to sell it but cant decide......
I'm tempted to buy it! BTW how does it like flatnose or hollowpoint ammo? That was one of my beefs with the Colt I had although I know it can be rectified.

KMD, your Commander is well set up, very nice piece indeed!
Prproulx, if have the opportunity..........you better do it.
I bought a satin nickel plated Combat Commmander from an older post in the exchange forum just last week, now waiting for shippment. The pistol exchange also contains a NIB Gold Cup Commander that I was deliberating over, but I went with the nickel one. Use the search tool in the pistol exchange for "Colt Commander", several will come up.

thecollector,
I saw them. I just bought a NIB lightweight Commander of the EE. It's a .45acp.
A lot of us would also like a 9mm version so we can shoot cheap ammo. I can't believe how much .45acp costs these days!

I wonder if Questar could import us some of those babies from the US. Hell, they might be expensive but at least they'd only be 'restricted'. I'd be up for a lightweight Colt commander in 9mm to go with my all steel combat one....
Hmmm.... note to self... must look into....

Prproulx, it's good that you are not Commanderless. 45 ACP is the classic caliber for a 1911 type. A Commander in 9mm is also a desirable piece, you can't beat the $10./box of the cheaper commercial 9mm. I am now going to make the assumption that you don't reload, if you set yourself up with the reloading basics, you will be able to pump out your own .45 ACP ammo cheaper than you can buy the cheapest 9mm ammo; plus you will be able to load 9mm (and any others) cheaper than you can buy any commercial stuff............food for thought.
