I was wanting to acquire either one or both of these models....Was wanting to get some feedback from you that have either owned one, or have knowledge of these....

I own a SS Gunsite and so far it has been flawless......

I have all 3 Colt Gunsite Pistols, blue, stainless and CCO. I bought a 4th, that one went to one of my kids, he is on a Swat Team in the suburb he lives in. I just wanted to get him on the Colt bandwagon and figured that the Gunsite Pistol would be a good start for him. He uses those plastic things at work.

The only problems I've had were the front sight worked loose. Gunsite Ranch installed night sights for me when I bought the pistol from them and when it popped loose, I sent it to Colt for repair. Seems to be holding. The other problem was rust under the stocks. Seems there was a problem with the thin wood stocks (grips) not being correctly sealed or something like that and it caused a bit of rust under them. I got it taken care of when I sent it back for the front sight problem.

The pistols all have crisp triggers and are very accurate, they are just good pistols. In fact when I went through an NRA Class recently, the lead instructor was walking by us and looking at our grip and stance, when he got to me, he stopped, looked at the pistol and said, "That's a nice Colt!" Some of my several partners that week commented that I shoot very well. A good pistol will help you do that. Not to drone on, but I will anyway, when I shot my bright stainless Python that week, the lead instructor was maybe 25' away, observing the firing line and saw that Python and exclaimed, "That's a beautiful Python!" I think so, that's why I bought it!

I have only one, (SS Gunsite), have not shot it yet but I know that I will not sell it. Like most members on this forum will tell you, the Gunsite is a keeper! If you can find one for a good price jump on it!

Yes they do. I can't seem to remember why that happened.......

The one I gave away was the most accurate pistol (in my hand at least) I've ever shot. It was better than the other Gunsite Pistols, my SIG and my SCG.

I have the matte blue Colt Gunsite Pistol (Gunsite Service Pistol is a different animal ).

As OK said, it aint going anywhere soon.

What about a gold cup trophy...is it better than one of those.

I don't know. I've never owned a Gold Cup or shot one either.
