Competitive shooters expect a handgun that balances match-grade accuracy with reliable, predictable controls. The 1911 platform remains a benchmark for competition due to its trigger geometry, ergonomic controls, and adaptability for sight and barrel upgrades. For shooters who want a factory-built competition-ready rig in near-new condition, there’s a clear option to consider.

COLT 1911 COMPETITION SERIES 70

Like new condition and priced at $929.99, this COLT 1911 COMPETITION SERIES 70 arrives with a 5″ National Match barrel, stainless steel finish, original box and manual, and one magazine. As a Semi Auto category piece from Colt, the Competition Series 70 carries the legacy of the Series 70 design philosophy—crisp triggers and tight lockup—made specifically for competitive use.

Precision features that matter

The included 5″ National Match barrel is the focal point for shooters prioritizing mechanical accuracy and consistent barrel harmonics. A longer match-grade barrel adds sight radius for tighter group potential and is a staple in service pistol and single-stack competition divisions. The stainless steel finish contributes to corrosion resistance and weight distribution that can reduce felt recoil and muzzle flip.

Ergonomics, controls, and competition readiness

Series 70 models are known for straightforward maintenance and a clean firing mechanism that many competitors prefer for predictable trigger breaks. This particular example ships with one magazine and the original packaging, which is valuable for collectors and those who prefer factory documentation during transfers. The stainless construction and match barrel make it a plug-and-play candidate for minor upgrades such as sights, grip panels, or tuned recoil springs depending on the rules of your chosen competitive division.
