YOUR COLLECTION IS INCOMPLETE.

This Colt 1911 .38 Super was master engraved by Merlin Enright of Altamont Co. This gold plated work of art is selectively covered in deep relief Woodsman pattern with Whitetail Deer head accents. This is American engraving at its finest.

The bright factory polish is accentuated by the contrasting sections of deep relief engraving and gold plating. The pattern flows in the unique neoclassical signature style of the engraver. The combination of depth and detail makes this piece a rare find. A premium pair of Super Walnut grips have been selected and specially crafted for this edition. This is, simply, an elegant firearm.

This Colt 1911 .38 Super has been classified as Grade AAA Level Coverage.
