Design features that matter

The adjustable rear sight paired with a fiber optic front sight gives fast, high-contrast sight acquisition for both slow-fire precision and quick defensive presentations. The two included 7-round magazines mean you can keep one in the gun and one loaded as a ready spare. Having the original case and owner’s manual preserves the firearm’s provenance and makes safe storage and transportation straightforward.

Why certified used is a tactical advantage

Buying a certified used Colt lets you access a reputable brand without the new-gun premium. The Certified Used stamp on this Semi Auto guarantees functionality and cosmetic standards, and the retailer’s ‘no questions asked’ return policy reduces risk if the firearm doesn’t meet expectations. For shooters who prioritize reliability and clear sighting in defensive scenarios, the competition-oriented sight package is a tangible upgrade.

Practical considerations before you buy

Confirm fit and trigger feel at the range when possible; the included owner’s manual helps you understand factory settings and safety operation. The compact magazine capacity reflects the platform’s design; for some users that means carrying mindset changes, for others it’s a tradeoff for a slimmer grip and familiar Colt handling. At $1,099.99 for a certified used example with competition sights and accessories, this model is positioned as a strong value for defensive-minded shooters.
