Anybody know how to locate a list of Colt authorized dealers by state? I can't find anything on their website?

Without contacting a CSR, I don't know. Their website is a little hard to work with...

Thanks guys....now to shop grips and find ammo............


I hope you realize the 22LR 1911 you just bought won't be your LAST 1911! Believe me, there WILL be more.

I'm getting the drift. Next, will have to be the legendary 45 cal. Need a few years for my girls to get bigger before getting one of those though. Have a Ruger Stainless Revolver I bought new in August. My eight year old could only pull the hammer back about 6-8 times before she gave up. So, I'm selling it. The 1911 22lr should be perfect for teaching them. But I do want the big boy !!!

Doc you still in the lead on the CDE? Also, I found this on Colt's website:

Where can I purchase Colt Firearms?
Answer: Your local Federal Firearms Licensed dealer can sell Colt products to you. We do not have authorized dealers. Colt sells directly to distributors, and special order Custom Shop items to dealers.

i have the 5.56 and feel like it is one of the most well put together guns i have ever handled. so glad i got mine when a little company named daniel defense started making these rifles and they were sub 1000.

eta: just realized this bitch was 8 pages. this was in response to ics post on the 1st page.
