    1968 Lightweight Commander

    My recent find...





    Serial number is a palindrome



    Seems almost new

        Thanks guys. Thought you would appreciate it.

        It's been a great month for me.

        The material gains, such as this gun, have been nice but the immaterial gains, such as the election, have been better.

            I had one like it and really liked it, starting a family at that time convinced me to sell my 4 digit serial number Colt. Enjoy that nice piece.

              Its noticeably lighter than my steel frame Commander. Shoots well but those original sights are pretty fine. A great gun to carry as an option to either the steel gun or my S&W J.

                You are going to carry a pristine Colt?
