This limited-edition example pairs classic 1911 ergonomics with competition-grade components and decorative finishing that appeal to collectors and serious shooters alike.

COLT El Potro Rampante Government 1911 is a modern production .38 Super with a 5″ National Match Barrel (SN: EPI00324). This SK Customs Limited Edition semi-auto Government 1911 features engraving on the slide and frame, gold and silver plating, polished controls, and a high polished blue finish in excellent condition. Faux white pearl grips with a gold Rampant Colt emblem show only slight handling wear. The bore is bright with excellent rifling, and the pistol comes with its case from the Dallas location. Priced at $4950.99, this piece sits in the Revolver category on our site and blends display-level aesthetics with match-ready performance.

Design and Finish

The engraved slide and frame, combined with gold and silver plating, elevate this 1911 beyond a standard service pistol. Polished controls reduce friction during manipulation and enhance the visual contrast against the high polished blue finish. The faux white pearl grips with the Rampant Colt motif are well-preserved and complement the cosmetic package while remaining functional for controlling recoil and grip purchase.

Barrel, Accuracy, and the .38 Super Advantage

The 5″ National Match Barrel is the technical heart of this pistol. Its bright bore and excellent rifling point to a firearm tuned for repeatable accuracy and consistency—ideal for precision target work. Chambered in .38 Super, the platform offers a flatter trajectory and higher velocity potential compared with some common pistol calibers, making it attractive for competitive shooters and defenders who favor controllable recoil with strong terminal performance when paired with modern defensive loads.
