POTD: Classic Colts

Yesterday I met a machinist that is a bit into firearms. He showed me some classic Colts that he inherited.
Colt Officer’s Model Match
Keith also has the second National Match .38 Special 1911 I have seen. The first one can be seen here.
The next Colt classic is his father’s bullseye .45 acp 1911 with a Fitz Accu-Riser grip.
There are some more interesting items hidden in this machine shop. Stay tuned.

I read, "Colt Officer’s Model Match Keith" before the jump. I'm thinking that seeing an Elmer Keith Custom Colt anything will be quite a religious experience!
After jump, not Elmer Keith, but quite nice regardless.
I'll take Wadcutter Colts for $500 Alex....
This here's my kinda classic Colt:

(Though they got nothin' on the Remington revolvers of the day; turns out a strong frame with a top strap was a really good idea...)
