Hello again all,

As promised here are pictures of my new Colt XSE Combat Commander in stainless. One of the Colt Combat Commander in satin electroless nickle around 37 years old

I fired over 300 rounds without a malfunction. The weather was sunny but very windy. I Fired from a standing position using a two hand grip. Groups fired from 10 and 15 yards ranged from one ragged hole to almost two inches. 25 yards stayed around five and six inches. After the wind picked back up and the round count increased the 25 yard groups opened way up. Still well within the kill zone. I called it a day and drove home with a big smile.

Money well spent.

Nice guns. I had a Coltguard (I believe it was called) finished Commander briefly in the 70s and traded it due to inexperience and being young and stupid. It is one of the most regretable losses I look back on now.
