USED Colt Combat Commander .38 Super 1911 – 1976 Production

The Colt Combat Commander is one of the classic compact variants of the 1911 platform, and this example is chambered in the highly desirable .38 Super Automatic. Serial number 70BS50209 dates to 1976, according to the Colt serial-number lookup shown in the provided documentation.

This pistol features the traditional blued finish, Commander-length slide and barrel, checkered wood grips with Colt medallions, fixed sights, spur hammer, and single-action 1911 controls. The slide carries the classic “Combat Commander Colt .38 Super Automatic” markings with Colt's rampant horse emblem, while the barrel is marked “Colt .38 Super Auto.”

The pistol is in very good used condition for its age. The blued finish remains attractive, with minor handling, edge, and surface wear visible in the photographs. The wood grips also present well. For a Colt collector, 1911 enthusiast, or someone specifically looking for a vintage .38 Super, this 1976 Combat Commander is a noteworthy example of Colt's earlier production.
