I am about to pick one of these up from a guy who is needing some cash but want to make sure that I am not over paying. He says it is a Colt Combat Government Model one of the few made on the series 80 frames, the precursor to the Combat Elite. I do not know how to upload the pics he e-mailed but it is a two tone with Pachmayr grips.
What would be a fair price on this? The guys is asking $800 and I know NOTHING about 1911 values and don't want to overpay, but if it is a good deal then I may bite. It does show some holster wear.
