Colt Special Combat Owners...

Any pictures of the test group Colt sent? How big and how many rounds and at what distance was it? Have you been able to get similar performance?

What is your over-all experience with this pistol? How is fit/finish/accuracy?

Any complaints/problems?

[Z51]

Here are mine with targets:


http://i83.photobucket.com/albums/j286/rbz51/Picture007.jpg


I haven't shot them yet so I can't confirm anything.

Fit, finish, and quality issues are fine.

The nickel gun had some poorly checked grips that Colt gladly replaced.

The slides are tight.

I had the nickel one apart and a wrench was not required.

[N/Apower]

What was the distance and what did the groups measure? # of rounds?

Is the slide/frame fit tight or is there movement? How about the bushing, does it need a wrench?

I wrote a review of my Special Combat Review for the ezine. I have been able to get tighter groups myself than the target that was sent with it.
I am still deeply in love with my Special Combat Government.

No pictures of the target that came in the box. When mine was pretty new I put some Desert Ironwood grips from Esmeralda on it and went to a friends ranch I shoot at every now and then. The distance was 22 yards and I was shooting one handed, like slow fire bullseye. This was 6 rounds of WWB from Wally World. Notice the expensive targets.

http://i39.photobucket.com/albums/e193/dakota1911/sgovt1r.jpg

As I continued to shoot I moved the sight a bit and started to notice the possibilities of the gun. Same day and info as above, and I did "blow" a couple rounds.

http://i39.photobucket.com/albums/e193/dakota1911/sgovt3r.jpg

Later I did plop it in my Ransom rest and it can make one large hole at 25 yards with almost any decent ammo. Unfortunately I did not take photos of that. I do need to take it to another range and shoot it at 50 yards to find the ammo it likes. This is a great gun, but heck, you do pay for it.

Although mine is tight I can take it apart without a wrench. Actually, except for my XSE's with their silly flgr's the only Colt I have needed a wrench on is my WWI repro.

[N/Apower]

What distance does Colt shoot these factory targets at? Ransom or hand-held? Anyone?

Is that a stainless, or hard-chromed barrel?

Thanks, Boomer.
They are Macassar Ebony from the lovely Ms. Esmeralda. I relieved the top for the thumb safety and refinished them with Tung oil.
I paid......I don't really remember. $90? Something like that.

Wow. The snout got dirty. If it is anything like the chromed parts on my AR, I bet any hand that touched it got just as dirty and the pistol just as clean. One reason I love that finish.

Well, I guess I am a complete failure if you call that "bad" lol. GOod shooting. I am still wondering though...what distance and how many rounds is the Colt Factory Test Group?

[dogdollar]

Aw, man....don't make me dig through all of that paperwork.

According to Claude Friskin at Colt, all test targets are shot from a ransom rest at a range of 25 yards.

[Agent 45]

I just got my detector back, and it was pinging in the red on that one ;) So N/A, have you decided to go with the Colt over the Les Baer? Lets face it... you'll own BOTH at some point if your really that torn between them!!!

[dogdollar]

Nothing like a twelve year old review to get you up to speed.
DD

[Joni Lynn]

I have my targets/boxes/paperwork put away but the targets I think were labeled as being fired at 15 yards. and were around 1.5".
Both Colt SCG are nicely made and both have been 100% reliable so far. They are no where near Les Baer accurate but I didn't expect them to be either. Both have a decent trigger pull and the safety works well on them. The hard chrome SCG is a blast to shoot and goes out with me fairly often.

Arggg...so can anyone tell me what distance all these factory Colt groups are shot at?

I do prefer the Colt over the Les ASSUMING! I can expect performance consistant with those I see posted above from the Colt and assuming that the general consensus is that the above article I linked was 10 years old and holds no bearing and I should expect 1.5-2" groups with a round it likes at 25 yards.

[Joni Lynn]

I haven't spent the time to put mine on paper at 25 yards, mostly I shoot my steel plates. The accuracy of the guns are such that hitting a 4" plate at 50 yards isn't easy but it's very manageable at 35 to 40 yards.
I would think they would deliver somewhere around 2" to 2.5" at 25 yards but I might be overly optimistic.

This pistol is really growing on me. What distance were those targets shot at? I presume since the pistol has been made since at LEAST '96 and it is still being made (currently, right? I assume the custom-shop is well and alive and still making these, but I know Colt can be SLOW on updating their webpage and Lorants told me they couldn't get that pistol and said all their Colt stuff was in low stock/not available and questioned if Colt was still making it...I belive they are current production though, no?) I should be abel to find one either where you pointed me or elsewhere in stock as well, another +.

Would you say that the extra play makes the weapon a hair more reliable than a Les Baer? How about less-prone to stoppages once dirty/gritty/if ever dropped in the mud or whatnot?

[Joni Lynn]

I've never shot a gun that will run as long between cleanings as a Les Baer.
I doubt a Colt would run any longer if as long.
If you were near me I'd take you to the range to shoot them.
I have a couple custom Colt's that seem to run very well, one will go for a few hundred rounds before having problems, the other built by Bob Rodgers has gone 400+ rounds at one range session, all non stop with no problems at all.

[Trapper L]

Mine is a 38 Super and the target that came with it was from 15 yds and was about a 1" group. I can beat that with handloads from bags at 25 yds. I also shoot 3/4" bolt heads in steel plates and it's not a problem to keep it on the bolt.

Hrmmm, he still stated that it was his most accurate Colt. I know Colt neglects their website, and I have heard gunstore rumor that they no-longer make the Colt SCG. I belive this to be false, but just wanted a double check.

Also, is their CS phone number correct on the website so I can call and ask what, if any, the accuracy standard is for the Colt SCG.

Another ?, as far as I know, the pistol that the OP in that thread has was NOT custom fitted, as the TROPHY was a non custom shop piece. Therefor, if I got the SCG, it would be a totally different animal, no?

You are a HUGE pain in the behind.
I like you, though.....these are questions you SHOULD be asking....I wish more people researched their purchases this thoroughly.
Since I do have a life outside of this forum, let me end my participation in this thread and sum up with this:
The Colt SCG is an outstanding example of a 1911( as I, Joni, Hunter, and several others have told you). It is likely NOT going to be as accurate as a Les Baer, but should still be 1.) way more accurate than a casual shooter is capable of, and 2.) more than sufficient for anything competitive, short of bullseye.
It is also a beautiful weapon that I am sure you will be proud to own.
Good luck !!

Thank you, sir. If you watch Esmeralda's selection every day for a month or so, eventually you will see a pair that strikes your fancy as well. The ones you see, on her site, are the ones you get - and, as they say, the early bird gets the worm.
Of course, the second mouse is the one that gets the cheese, but I digress.....

I pass through Houston from time to time, but with gas-prices and starting a new job next week, I fear that that opportunity would not arise until I have purchased. However, I would be more than happy to set up a range trip. Robert of Talon Arms invited me to an LWRC shoot at the end of the summer as well. We will see.

PS. Robert/Talon Arms is a TOP NOTCH! establishment and person to deal with! Second to none with customer service!

[daveohno]

If you are a bulls eye shooter, maybe the Baer might be the way to go. I'm not and I'm not going to spend that much money on a handgun. I paid about $1200 for my two tone SCG from Buds Gunshop a couple of years ago. Mine is a super 38. I am a casual combat style shooter and my SCG is among several that I call my most accurate pistols. I have a Sig P220, SCG, WW1 Repro and one of the Gunsites I had were all one ragged hole shooters. I shoot fairly close, I use a 2 handed hold and I don't make any effort to go very slow. But the pistols all do just fine. I shoot the SCG and one of my Gunsites at almost every range outing.

If you want a top end production pistol, the Colt SCG is the one to get. If you want to start to dabble in the custom end of things, I'd look at a Baer. But you will pay more for a Baer. It might be me, but anything more than $1200 for a handgun is beginning to get out of my price range. I'm not that talented to need a 2500 or $3000 pistol. Besides, I like to have quite a few pistols, if I spent that kind of dough on them, I'd have less than I do and I really like all my Colt's quite a bit.

N/A, You don't happen to go by 'NewFarmer' or something close to that in any of the tractor forums?

You are reminding me of that guy, equivocating forever but not yet owning a tractor Meanwhile his grass grows, his field is full of rocks, and runoff goes straight into the basement of his house.

Your basement won't flood for lack of a gun, of course, but Good Grief Man, Get OFF the Pot!

Buy the Colt and sell it next year for near as much as you paid or more, if you can keep from dropping it in the mud as you seem to worry about doing.

Or buy the Baer and sell it next year at a loss of a few hundred dollars because as nice as they are they are not national historical icons.

Look at it this way if it pleases you to do so: Walk down the street and say "Les Baer" to ten people you meet. It's very likely that they'll all respond with "Huh?". but walk down the same street and say "Colt" to ten people and they'll all know that you're talking about a gun most likely, though you may run across some equestrian fruitcake who think you mean a young horsie (which, some would say is the same thing anyway).

Colt had SCG's on display at the recent NRA Convention.

SCG's have been difficult to locate lately.

They were drying up when I bought my pair 5 months ago.

I believe Colt makes stuff and then shifts to other models and then comes back to produce more later.

No, the only things I have researched and not yet bought is a Bark River knife and an exhaust for my WS6. I really want them, but other things always get in the way (such as this 1911 purchase and my AR-15 purchase a while back, and yes I have pix of the results of that one ;) ). I do like to thoroughly research something before I buy it though. If that is bothersome, I am indeed sorry. The reason the knife and exhaust are on the back burner is due to availability. They will be available any time I wish to purchase them.

FWIW, I have pretty much decided on the Colt. This week or early next, I will sell my SIG (My father requested first-option, and he will let me know here pretty soon whether or not he wants it. If not, it will go up on consignment at a local Lorant's).

Also, a gun-show is coming up this coming sunday and I need to buy some grips for whatever 1911 I get. Unlike most on this forum, I am a fan of wood grips, but they aren't my thing. I am more a fan of the alumagrips or G10 or something synthetic.

If I can locate some 47D's they will also come home with me :)

Either way, rest assured, whatever I end up with, you will see some nice pictures of it as one of my friends just bought a 9.1Megapixel camera and is photo-happy. I will say though, it will take me probably 2 weeks from today to order, so baer with me a while longer ;)

Thanks! Between college, my premium-swilling Trans Am, and food for an avid gym rat, you guys should applaud me for even contemplating the purchase of a 1911, much less selling my SIG to get one :D

I am pretty set on the Colt, if only for the value it will maintain and the fact that 3" at 50 yards vs 5" at 50 yards is not a difference I will personally ever see, nor will the hog/armadillo/whatever on the other end of the barrel care either.

Now that is one forum I never even thought about. Well, I am on mustang and F-body forums, so I guess why couldn't there be a tractor forum? I once argued with a guy at work telling him that EVERY CAR has a fan group. He called me out on it and I asked him for a name of a car that he thought noone liked. Apparently, there WAS a Ford Contour Owners Club of America or something that a quick google turned up, lol.

N/A,

There's no reason to apologize AT ALL, OK? Keep that clear because there isn't one person in this or the fifteen other gun forums you are no doubt posting 'researching' questions in seeking your solution who minds giving you their opinion.

Researching purchases is of course an extremely prudent activity and is seldom time lost or spent unwisely. But can you see that asking questions of forum members is necessarily asking for their opinions only? It's NOT research since it is not based on facts. Opinions are worth knowing, and of course everyone's got one as they say, but who is the expert who could satisfy your need?

The bottom line really is that comparing opinions is similar to comparing the shape of tomatoes on the vine. They may be nice tomatoes and have all of the characteristics that you prefer in a tomato, but still they're only tomatoes. Your opinion of this tomato or that is no different from what you seek in asking for other's opinions - opinions which jibe with your own.

Since you have preferences by your own hope for coincidental preferences, why not act on your own without the others? Why do you need anyone's support? The longer you ask the more conflicting opinions you'll receive and it will end in your own boredom with the search. At that time you'll have no pistol at all and will have insulted the people who attempted in good faith to help you to form your own decision.

See? It's your money. If you want a true research result then give one of us the money and take note of what we buy ourselves with it. Whoever you give the money to won't be asking which pistol to buy, but you can congratulate the person when they post the pictures of their new gun. Would you then know what to do?

[Hill]

Lynnie, I've never seen you asking anyone what you should buy. Who do you ask? :)


I think there must be ten tractor forums, probably more. I'm a member of three of them.

I have no doubt that there's a Yugo Owner's forum.. probably has thosands of members too. :D

[Joni Lynn]

I don't ask anyone. I do my research and then buy whatever it is that I have the itch for. Sometimes the itch goes away just as I take possession of the new gun and sometimes not.
I do get advice from my father on soem guns. Most often he will say something along the lines of 'what do you need a piece of junk like that for?', or 'what do you need another Gold Cup for?'.

I agree fully with you, and this is indeed the only forum I have posed questions on (I am a member of others, but this is the only one that I have posted on about this).

Yes, I am asking for opinions. I can dig up the technical info myself and have already done so.

Hard Chrome has an RC of 70-78

Baer Coat has been known to chip

Blueing is for looks only (I blued a nail and then I left a nail in the white after sanding them both. I then doused it in CLP, oddly, the blued one rusted first...)

ect. ect.

However, I have a story to tell you.

I once had a 5.0 mustang GT (not so long ago, and it is still in the drive-way). My cousin and everyone else told me what to put in it. They gave their "opinions". Well, I researched it, looked at headflow, port velocity, cam-specs, dyno-charts, compression ratio and it's effect on a certain cam grind and whatnot.

I became a technical expert on the Ford 302 engine and "what it took" to make it run.

I then purchased a crate motor that while not posessing my ideal parts, was TECHNICALLY a very good motor according to all the books.

Well guess what? 242rwhp and 250#'s of tq later, I was quite displeased.

It was then that I begrudgingly admitted (as most 21 year old guys most certainly are VERY begrudging to admit anything, much less being incorrect) that maybe there was wisdom not to be found in books but only in the experience gained from doing something a LONG time and that maybe those magazines and books and internet articles were backed by someone...maybe the company selling the stuff?

So I learned, an opinion from someone who has spent a long time in the field they are working/playing in, is worth at LEAST as much as fact from some book or article or whatnot. This is why every time I swing by Clark's Guns, I try to learn something new. Last time I was there, one of the smiths taught me how to replace and tune a 1911 extractor.

Therefor, yes, I am sure that someone may be hurt that I will not heed their advice and go along with their opinion. I am not here to be told what to buy. I am here to ask what, and WHY, and then I will match that to my personal preferences and between it all, I feel that I will have benefitted greatly from those who know more than I and may well have saved myself from something that appealed to me but would not have suited me once I dug deeper into the matter.

N/A,
First, let me let you have a look at my resume':
http://i47.photobucket.com/albums/f179/6401glendale/Gun%20Stuff/Collection-1.jpg

Now:
You seem to be on the fence between the SCG and a Baer. If you think the delta in price is so great between them, you might be in for a surprise. Call ProLoad for a price and delivery on a PII in hard chrome in .38 Super.
It WILL be more accurate than the Colt, I guarantee it.
However, as I have already stated, they are built with a different philosophy; one is an apple and one is an orange. They are both amazing, high tier weapons, but your going on and on about accuracy makes me think you would be happier with the potential accuracy of the Baer.
Call Crazy John at ProLoad anyway, and just have a chat with the guy. He sells Colt AND Baer, if memory serves me correctly, and has forgotten more about guns than most of us will ever know. Plus, he is friendly and wants you to have the gun you want just as much as you do....just don't pretend to know more than you actually do, he will smell a phony a mile away.
It's no crime to not know something, especially as persistent as you are about seeking the answers.

For the record on all 4 of my SCG's the test targets are 15yds and all measure under 2" 1 of them is under 1". They are very accurate pistols. ;)
