Picked up another Colt 1911

Post by RazorBurn »

Picked this Colt XSE Lightweight Government M1911 up today at my FFL in a trade. I'm really looking forward to firing this one, and it my end up being an alternate carry peice for me. It's been a nice past couple of months for me for pistols.

Nice! 8-) Looks a lot like my PT1911AR, minus the rail. I do carry that occasionally. What'd ya trade for it?

I traded a Anderson AR15 for it. It was an Anderson lower I put together with a PSA Freedom free float upper on it.

A good deal both ways. He got a nice AR, you got a great 1911!
