I have a dear friend, Sharpi knows him too. His parents asked him what he wanted for his 16th birthday... he said a Colt Gold Cup... this was in the late 50's. He got it new and STILL has it. It's in it's original condition and completely flawless.
I shot it a few years back, the blueing on it is incredible, as is the fit and over all finish. Tightest most accurate 1911 I have ever handled.
