Colt's Custom Carry Limited is a full-size 1911 in .45 ACP built with the features serious defensive and competitive shooters specify: a 5-inch barrel, an upswept beavertail grip safety, a skeletonized trigger and a tuned single-action break. Colt has been building 1911s longer than anyone, and there is still something about a steel-framed, all-metal .45 that a polymer pistol does not replicate, since the weight soaks up recoil and puts the trigger in a class of its own. This one pairs stainless with a smoke-gray finish.
