I think is legal in Mexico. Military calibers are not allowed, and so .38 Super is popular.

I hear that. Any information is folks south of the border will have access to them. Something tells me they wont which would be sad seeing as how its a gun that commemorates one of their national heros. I know id be ticked is someone came out with a gun for Audie Murphy and only sold it in Mexico. But thats just me, LOL. Nice looking piece though.

22lr, I don’t know much about Mexico history, but I think the pistol is more a celebration of independence and democracy than of an Mexican hero.

Dont take this the wrong way but since when did the “All American gun company” (Colt) making the “All American gun” (1911) get reduced to commemorating NON-Americans. Ya he is a national hero of Mexico but come on, why not use an American hero like Audie Murphy, or George Washington. I just fail to understand the logic of Colt here. Nothing against Mexico (kind of a cool country) but seriously, are gun sales so slow that Colt is reduced to this? Just sounds like something a 2 bit scam artist would sell.

That said it looks amazing, but can Mexicans in Mexico buy them. Or are they limited to US sales? Very good looking gun though.
