Colt 1911 Government model 38 super limited edition EL Samuel 1-500 

The Gold inlay opposite the Colt Pony is the Colt’s factory dome in Hartford, Connecticut. I drive by it everyday.

Wow that is gorgeous. I'm not one for owning safe queens, but something special like this....I couldn't shoot it. Definitely an investment

Looks like a safe queen

Absolutely gorgeous. That is definitely an investment. I'm usually an "if I own it I shoot it" kind of guy, but that is an exception. Tough decision.

Beautiful firearm. I am not sure if I would shoot it or not. Tough call.

safe gueen for sure!

The 9mm in 38 Super of this pistol could be had from the factory dedicated left-handed same with the Browning hi-power

Very nice Macman. I would make it a Safe Queen.

Beautiful gun Mac! That is awesome.

ONLY "9mm" that belongs in a "1911"!!!

That's a rendition of the blue dome on the Colt factory. Horse apiece on whether or not to shoot it. 🤷

How much did you pay? Most online stores have them marked up. Would like to know the msrp.

Beautiful Gun! That’s definitely a Safe Queen. I have a Colt 45 Safe Queen. I will email a photo. Congrats again.

Dang that things a beauty.

Wowsers!

Safe queen for sure. To shoot it would definitely devalue it. Beautiful piece!

Keep it as an investment for sure.

That gold inlay on the back right side looks like a Muslim or Israeli tower mosque? The dome of the shan mosque is what it reminds me of

Beautiful. Personally, I’ve never seen the validity of a safe queen as an investment. I think that, in the long term, it would be difficult to keep up with inflation. A family heirloom that needs to be preserved? Sure. A beautiful piece of art like this one to be brought out and admired occasionally? Sure. I would not purchase a gun that I didn’t intend to shoot, but that’s just me. All that said, if I were you, I wouldn’t shoot this one. Get ahold of a “shootable” 38 super for fun, and keep this one pristine. 🤛🏻🔫🇺🇸
