Colt Series 80 price check

1911fun · 06-15-2002, 08:15 AM

Need some assistance on a pistol I'm considering.

Satin hard chrome, Barsto barrel, Wycof bushing, EdBrown guide rod, Cylinder & Slide trigger reduction set @ 3lb, wilson magwell,not sure what kind of sights, one wilson 8 round stainless mag & seller says it has about 100 rounds through it since all gunsmith work was done. Shot thumb size groups 30' standing.
Wants $600
Yea or nay?
Thanks!

Provided the smithing seems well-done, IMO $600 is quite reasonable. Bottom line is will this be a gun you'll be happy with? If so, then after a thorough pre-purchase inspection, I'd buy it. Besides, the thumb-size groups at 30' are impressive...as long as you aren't talking about a group you can cover with your thumb while 30' away... :wink: Take care.
