Colt Series 70 1911
I have a Colt Series 70 pistol, .45 ACP, in what looks like electroless nickel. I was trying to find serial number info to find it's production date. Serial is:32xxxB70. The electroless nickel is factory, as the left side of the frame is engraved with the rampant colt, series 70, and government model. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks, Geoff

It sounds like satin nickel, standard offering at time.
It wouldn't be chrome. edited fer spellun

Nickel
Yep. Electroless nickel...Trademarked as "ColtGuard" and a very durable finish. Hard to clean up unless ya know exactly how to go about it. Very exacting process, so ya'll listen up.
Detail strip it and put the slide and frame in the dishwasher. Cascade works. Lemon scent is good. Cheers! ![]() |

Mine wanted one of dem famn dancy elektonik dish washers. When I gave her an ektension kord, she threw a frying pan at me.
Funny, the same thing happened when she wanted on of those electronic floor sweepers. I guess I'm doing something wrong. |
