Best looking gun made today!

[tango87]

I like my Colt Double Eagle in .45 acp full size… I haven’t shot it years especially since Colt stopped making them. Now the question is how many in here had to search to see what kind of gun this is ? It’s not a 1911 …

Why does the upper look so gigantic compared to the grip? Is it just being distorted by the camera?

? It’s dimensionally a normal full size 1911.

They shoot so damn good. How long was the wait?

They definitely do, the comp puts in work even with plinking ammo! One of my LGS had it in stock, so no wait!

You know, I’ve seen some people show theirs off and thought they were hideous (like most 2011 monstrosities) but that one is sexy with the contrasting black grip tape/optic/light/controls.

Much appreciated! I think about getting the coyote SRO & tan X300 often, but I think you're right it would be too much of one type of color. I've also thought about buying the newer version of the grip which is molded instead of silicon carbide, but this grip is quite good when shooting, just the right amount of grip.

Ironically, I'd love to own a Pit Viper or Sand Viper without the Taran logo but the bronze look is so distinct and awesome that it couldn't be mistaken for anything else.

Oddly, I have a G17 Combat Master that I had the logos removed and I don't like it nearly as much as when it had the logo's haha.

Yeah man I’d keep the black accessories. The black controls also add a nice accent color to match them. All one color is bleh, yours looks nice. Black barrel shows through too which adds balance to the black controls. The tan grip screws are nice also. I’d even paint or refinish the trigger black to match the hammer too

This is one of the EARLY SV's, shortly after they switched to a Black grip with Silicon Carbide, then the fully molded/textured grip in black like you see on the new ones. Don't see too many of the original Coyote grip SV's out there!
