However, the grips did not support the plunger tube and were soon replaced by superior rubber stocks. Initially, the 1991A1 featured cheap plastic grips and a matte finish. Colt was losing market share to Springfield’s GI and Mil Spec pistols, not to mention the imports. Another fellow said, ‘Y’all are talking about the 1991A? That’s the entry level Colt, correct?’ It is, and the latest Colt 1991A1 is a capable, reliable, and accurate handgun.Ī couple of decades ago, Colt needed a price beater. 200 crosspin and a barrel bushing with only.
