[QUOTE="JD8, post: 1266272, member: 24"] Hacker, re-read your initial post. There's a reason I made the FPS safety comment NOT series 70 comment in my intial reply. IN my description I then DID make a S70 but in paranthesis, just as you did. It looked like you were saying that they never made any in the 70s without a FPS as I got the meaning of your paranthesis. I get the nitpicky purist bit, heard it all before. It just serves no purpose when talking to most people concerning 1911, outside of collectors that dork out aboute descriptions. Problem is... everyone distinguishes them this way. Even Colt has advertised their guns as such and it trickles down to vendors. From your link..... In which they are correct in saying this, I just don't think they want to go through the history everytime someone asks if there is a FPS. People, vendors, and Colt apparently just say Series 70 or Series 80 to keep it simple. <-------- OH NOES!!! :D [/QUOTE]
