Description

This Colt 1911 U.S. Airborne 50th Anniversary edition honors the storied legacy of America’s paratroopers, commemorating 1940–1990 with special engravings and presentation features. Built on the legendary Colt Government Model .45 ACP platform, this pistol pairs military heritage with collectible craftsmanship.

The slide is deeply engraved with “COLT – U.S. AIRBORNE – 50th ANNIVERSARY” on one side, and “1940–1990” with parachutist wings on the other. Custom wood grips feature the U.S. Airborne insignia medallion, giving this pistol both authenticity and striking visual appeal. It ships in its original Colt blue presentation box with papers, lock, and accessories — a complete package for collectors.

This commemorative Colt is more than a sidearm; it’s a tribute to the Airborne tradition and a sought-after piece for Colt 1911 enthusiasts, military collectors, and those who value American history preserved in steel.
