Colt Gold Cup National Match .38 Super 5 inch 9+1 Blued Rosewood Grips

The Colt 1911 Gold Cup NM in .38 Super is the competitive-shooter's choice built on the Gold Cup legacy dating back to the late 1950s, offering a 5-inch National Match barrel, blued carbon steel slide and frame, polished stainless barrel with 1:16 LH 6-groove rifling, and a single-action, locked-breech design that delivers the consistency match shooters demand. With a wide three-hole aluminum target trigger adjustable between 3.5 and 5.5 lbs, a lowered and flared ejection port, flat top slide with serrations, and fully adjustable Bomar-style rear sight paired with a target post front sight, this pistol brings sighting and trigger control to the firing line whether you're shooting classics like slow-fire matches, action pistol stages, or precision practice. Checkered rosewood-style walnut stocks with gold medallions give a traditional 1911 feel and positive grip engagement while the ambidextrous grip/thumb safeties and standard safety lock address range safety and carry considerations; unloaded weight is 37 oz and overall length 8.5 in with a 9+1 capacity suited to competition and serious range work. An FFL transfer is required for purchase, and the Gold Cup NM remains a benchmark among competitive semi-auto pistols for accuracy, ergonomics, and repeatable performance.
