    Yikes less than 300!!!! I missed the boat. This is first one I've seen at my gun store but I paid 750 OTD but I have a colt defender and knew the quality of colt and cost.

    Congratulations! They really are quality guns and fun to shoot. There is just something about a single action trigger...

    Actually, a Pocketlite was the first pistol that I ever conceal carried.

    is this a series 80
    Although this pistol shares several similarities with its larger 1911 cousins, a few of the differences are worth noting. The full-length guide rod is made of polymer and fitted with dual recoil springs, and the slide does not have a barrel bushing. The grooved polymer trigger is pinned at the top, so it pivots more like a revolver trigger than traveling straight back like that of a 1911. However, the trigger's crisp stroke is short enough that the difference in motion is not really noticeable.

    I wouldn't call it a series 80 it is actually not a true 1911. No grip safety either.
