When selecting a reliable carry or range pistol, proven ergonomics, quality parts, and a clear return policy matter as much as the core design. For serviceable 1911-style performance in a Certified Used package, this model combines refined components with responsible resale standards that appeal to shooters who want a ready-to-shoot pistol without surprises.

COLT GOVERNMENT MODEL COMBAT ELITE — configured as a Semi Auto — ships with practical accessories and upgraded controls that lift it above a basic used pistol. This package includes one 8‑round magazine, a hard case for secure transport, Wilson Combat grips for improved purchase and control, a safety, and Novak style sights for straightforward sight alignment.

Key features and field applications

The Colt name and the 1911-derived controls are immediately familiar to shooters. Wilson Combat grips are a meaningful upgrade: they sharpen feel and recoil management during follow-up shots. Novak style sights offer low-profile, snag-resistant sighting suitable for duty, competition, or defensive carry. The included hard case protects optics and sights during transport, and the single 8‑round magazine reflects a focus on compact, duty-capable capacity in jurisdictions or scenarios where that loadout is preferred.

Certified Used advantage

This pistol carries a Certified Used designation, meaning each firearm is inspected to ensure very good to excellent condition and backed by a ‘no questions asked’ return policy. For buyers prioritizing value and assurance, that policy is a primary benefit. Price is listed at $1,299.99, positioning it as a smart investment for someone who wants Colt-level hardware with documented quality control and dealer support. View product details and pricing

Why this configuration matters

Practical touches — the safety, Novak style sights, and Wilson Combat grips — convert a classic frame into a modern, usable platform. Whether you’re upgrading a range sidearm or selecting a defensive pistol, the parts list reflects attention to shootability and serviceability. The Colt brand and the “Various” model designation here indicate factory lineage with potential for aftermarket support and parts compatibility.
