Colt ~ Government ~ .380 Auto

Colt MK IV/Series 80 Government Model chambered in .380 ACP. This pistol is in overall excellent condition, showing only mild handling marks consistent with careful ownership. The finish remains very attractive, and the black checkered grip panels with Colt medallions are in very good condition, providing the timeless appearance collectors and shooters appreciate. Designed as a scaled-down version of the legendary 1911, the Government .380 combines the familiar ergonomics and single-action trigger of the 1911 platform with the light recoil and practical size of the .380 ACP cartridge. Production of the Government .380 ran from the mid-1980s through the late 1990s, making these pistols increasingly sought after by Colt enthusiasts and collectors.
