Still for sale as well, I was just thinking about relisting it.

Have a Leopold Mark AR scope and M223 mount like new. scope was 500+ and plenty of 5.56 ammo to trade if interested.

The 3.5" Colts were notoriously picky about ammo. I'm thinking someone swapped on the commander length assembly for reliability.

It matches perfectly, a nice looking piece.

How much 9 mm and 556 I think I got a few boxes of 308 and I got some 22 long rifle also

You mean just like a straight trade, ammo for pistol? I don't really know, I haven't thought about it, but PM me an offer. I won't trade for ammo at today's insane retail exchange rates though, I'm not that desperate yet.

Possibly someone did swap out the slide, but there's other examples like this out there, here's a discussion about one in a 1911 forum thread with a serial number very close to mine:

Interesting. I guess it wouldn't be surprising that a company like Colt would do the occasional random production run.
